Hey Jenny! My Hubby is looking forward to that Teacher's Day off too! I feel like you do too, love seeing the pictures of vintage, past swaps and the new ATC"s are sooooooooooo AWESOME! Heaven's to Betsy! I cannot believe those of you, who said," you were a little nervous about this being a first time ATC swap!" Everyone has their own style and there is no right or wrong! I adore looking at my little tree and thinking about who made a card or ATC and it reminds me they had a prayer request or something they said that was funny! or something we bartered for. Don't forget to put your name on the back!! The Romance ATC card on my tree has no name, so I don't know who made it. I know the year was 2011. It was from my very first Valentine ATC swap.
Hugs! Connie

This is my second ATC swap and you should see my desk!!! I got out anything I thought I might be able to use :) It took some work, but I got them all finished up. Since I would like to receive them I think they're OK to send. It was a fun project for a winter day. Love seeing what everyone is coming up with. I think I might become addicted to ATC's!

Loving the pictures posted so far of the creative valentine ATC's.
Each is so unique and amazing. Connie, I adore that sweet heart

Hi All :-) Received my wonderful creations from Connie, yesterday. I now have them hanging on my tree, they are just precious :-)
Connie those foot loose & fancy free hearts on the one have been floating about today. I came in from the shoppe & they had drifted down on to the tree branches. They looked so nice that way I left them as is ;-)
Thank You again for the tucks. I LOVE the large matches & the candle smells great ~~~ the candy, YUM!.JPG) .JPG)

Maddie, I am so happy you like them!! I didn't glue them in case you wanted to put something else under the little clothespin.
Hugs!

Linda, what a wonderful Valentine package I received today....2 gorgeous ATC's (where do you find all those wonderful embellishments and background papers you use??!!), candy (yum-0), pencils, a fabulous vintage postcard, a beautiful Punch Studio card (love those people!!!!)...all packaged in the cutest little pink bag with a doily-type heart on it....oh, and last but not least....Pink Hello Kitty Hot Chocolate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have the cards and even the cute little brown bag with the red heart that contained my candy all hung on my MJF tree. It all looks beautiful. I also put my fabulous Winter Ribbon Doll from Beth on it as well.
Thanks again for everything,
Portia

Portia, Thanks for letting me know the package arrived ok. I had so
much fun making those ATC's and putting a few extra goodies with it.
I've traded paper, ribbon etc. with friends and collected embellishments
etc. on our family trips in and out of state for years so I have quite
a collection. So glad you liked everything. I LUV "Hello Kitty" so
the valentine "pink" hot chocolate was a must when I saw it recently
in a store valentine display.
I really do love the ribbon dolls and I'm sure Beth's is beautiful
on your tree. Now I've been seeing something called "spoolies" where
they make paper doll creations attached to empty wood thread spools
and embellish them. Oh if there were only 48 hours in a day!
What I make with my
hands, I give with my heart .... |

It just made my day today reading about all the amazing ATC's and Goodies! and how we all enjoyed making Valentine ATC's! I am so glad everyone is enjoying this swap! Thank you all so much for making my VERY FIRST TIME HOSTING! so much fun!!
Linda, I know what you mean about wishing for 48 hours in a day! LOL!
Portia, I guess "Heavens to Betsy" must be a TN, or Southern thing! LOL! If I had a nickel for every time I heard my Granny and my Teachers at school say that, I would be rich!! LOL!!
HUGS! Stay Warm! BRRRRRRRRR it went down to 11 degrees here last night!
