Everybody loves ATC's and they are easy to make.
Each person will make 2 holiday-themed ATC cards for their partner. Each person will have only 1 partner.
These are also easy to mail in a regular envelope with one stamp, usually.
When partners are assigned, each will contact their partner.
Sign-up ends: Oct. 31
Partners posted: Nov. 4
Mail-out: Nov. 26
Let the "creative-ness" begin!!
Hugs,
Portia
Since there was an uneven number, I took two. Hope this is okay with everyone.
Partners:
Connie & Linda O.
Darlene & Madeline
Beth & Denise (from NJ)
Laura & Mary Jo
Vanessa & Judith
Portia & Sherry
Portia & Becky
Don't forget to email your partner and get their info.
Thanks, everyone!!!!
Wishing for the country life! |

Please sign me up Potia :-) Love ATC's I am going to put this out there. I like anything Christmas including Jesus, the reason for the season ;-) I do know that some DO NOT like certain things, so it might be wise to ask before you make your ATC's, if your partner doesn't like certain things. ;-)
KEEP A SMILE IN YOUR HEART... |

Great! Welcome, Maddie and Darlene.
I, too, like both traditional and religious.
Maddie, great idea. Everyone, please ask your partner about their preferences of themes when they are assigned.

I have heard about ATCs for quite a while, but have never made one. What do you do with all the ATCs you collect? I'm trying to decide whether to sign up for this swap. It would be easier for me to start with, I think, than ATCs in addition to all the Christmas cards.

Linda, I hope you sign up. They are so much fun and don't take a lot of time. Google them online. I made 6 last night in less than an hour. Let me know!
Portia
The card swap is wonderful. When you see how easy ATC's are , I hope you will join that swap, too.

What kind of cards do you make them on? Playing cards? Make your own?

You can use playing cards to work on they make good stiff ATC cards, I have done that before and you already have the right size with a deck of cards and alot to decorate. They also are good patterns for when you want to cut your own from other card stock.
It is alot of fun and so a very creative outlet for your talents.

OK, Portia - I'm caving - AGAIN! I need my new mantra to be Just Say NO! They look like fun and Christmas would probably be a good way to start. I have some old playing cards I could use. This will be my 16th swap I've signed up for in less than 2 months. LOL! I love getting things in the mail and it's a good way to learn new crafts and get new ideas to share.

Please add me to this swap. I like traditional and religious themes. Also, since I live in Florida, I miss the snow (sigh).
