Partners are as follows: April and Becca Jami and Terri Dianna and Karen Wanda and Debbie
Please touch base with your swap partner to acquire their address ok? I hope you made an extra angel and sent her off to encourage and share the love with someone you know! Mail off is the 16th. Thank you everyone for your awesome creative participation!! See you in a few months.
This is the month of love for couples to express it to one another but whos to say its only for couples right? PLUS, why just one month? Why not everyday of every month?? Yes to that!

So this month's theme is Angel love. There has been so much heartache in 2020-21 and is spilling over into 2022 around my area. My heart desires to help but how? So this month we will create 2 ATC's with an angel theme filled with love and hope and encouragement! One for your swap partner, one to send to someone who's been sick, healing, discouraged or just needing their spirits lifted. Ok?
The size is a standard atc 21/2 x 3 1/2. Any medium. All kinds of additional materials can be added to make your angel shine!!
Sign ups until February 11, partners assigned on the 12th and send off is asap.
Thanks so very much for joining in and spreading some love this month!
Artist trading cards (ATCs) are miniature pieces of art that are traded around the world. Artists create, trade and collect art at organized "swap" events, either in person or online. The only official rule for ATCs is the size: 2.5" x 3.5". Artist Trading Cards are the same format as modern trading cards (hockey cards or baseball cards). Alternately you may choose to use a round ATC Coin of 2.5" diameter. They are self-made unique works or small series, signed and dated on the reverse by the artist/producer, exchanged and collected by the people who participate in the collaborative performance.
Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) are a conceptual art project initiated by the Swiss artist M. Vanci Stirnemann. He called it a Collaborative Cultural Performance. In 1997 he created 1200 cards by hand as part of an exhibit. On the last day, he invited others to create their own cards and trade with him during the closing reception. The movement took off, and today, there are ATC swaps in almost every major city around the world!
You can make ATCs with many different media including paper, fabric, felt, metal, wood, clay, paint, stamps, embellishments and more. There are tons of ideas and inspiration available online if you google ATC or Artist Trading Cards.
I am very thankful for each and every one of you creative farmsisters and especially for MaryJane who created this wonderful uplifting forum

Debbie I found my package today. Everything is just precious, I love it all!!! The magazines, thanks for sharing, lavender sachet, handmade paper card with floral heart that I plan to frame. Also note pad, the lovely little drawstring bag with a tiny crochet heart. Did you make this one Debbie? It is amazing!! Last but not least the beautiful ATC card of Mom’s Angel wings that form a heart. My heart is so very happy because of your thoughtfulness! LOVE

Posted - Feb 28 2022 : 1:53:25 PM Debbie so glad you finally got them, it took a while! Yours is probably in my mailbox but we have been away from home over a week, and something came up where we won’t get back home until this coming Friday. I will post a pic as soon as I get back home!

Posted - Feb 25 2022 : 11:35:38 AM Thank you Karen! No worries but I'm happy you snapped the face! Guess who did the face April and Debbie? SARA!! Isnt she adorable?? She helped me with both, I did the bodies and such and she created the faces. Sara has a lot to offer but doesn't think she does. I just loved her. Sent the other off to another farmsister who's been sick.
