Hi ladies!!
It's that time! I'm so stoked! I LOVE these things! Sara truly enjoyed playing a part in this swap by pulling names out of a bowl and matching them! So here's the list: Linda & Marilyn Debbie & Connie Marilou and Dianna Darlene & Julie Sherry & Patsy Kelly & Mary
Please contact your partner for exchanging addresses and if I've forgotten anyone PLEASE let me know? Post when you receive these please! THANK YOU so much for participating! Our next ATC swap is for October and the theme is 'cute' Halloween. Nothing with gore or scary, k? ;) Happy swapping all!!!
Our Eclipse ATC swap was so unique & fun! we swapped such BEAUTIFUL cards! After discussing this with several swappies it is going to be an ongoing swap with themes for each month. Next month will be a Halloween theme! ( thanks Marilou for the suggestions) These miniature creations of art have been truly inspirational!
Our theme for this month is Fall/Autumn! The color change is so beautiful this time of year as is the weather changes! So, any type of medium you want to use or even mix them! As long as the card is standard size (forgive my last set not made to size) of 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 heavy cardstock or prepared cardboard from cereal boxes and such. You may sew, paint, mix media, fiber, etc. for your trade. Make sure you sign the backs and title it and date it! Let's have FUN with Fall!
Sign ups begin now through Sept. 20th and mail out is Oct. 1st. As always we will assign ONE partner per ONE card but if you wish to make more it's up to you. :) If you are new to this swap, please send info for mailing.
Also if you are new to ATC's here is a brief description: Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) is a conceptual art project initiated by the Swiss artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann in 1997. He called it a Collaborative Cultural Performance. Artist Trading Cards are 2 1#8260;2 by 3 1#8260;2 inches (64 mm × 89 mm) in size, the same format as modern trading cards (hockey cards or baseball cards). 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.[1]
You can find a pattern online via google search and fit TEN ATC's on one piece of card stock. Or here is you can print it out.
Let your imaginations and artistic juices flow!

Dianna, I am a bit uncertain about what to do...are we making one card per person this time?

I think it is just one partner per person unless we want to sign up for more than one. I hope so. I can't make lots of cards right now. LOL!

I am working on my fall ATC, My Halloween one is done. That was fun but my fall one is a pretty one kind of. I can hardly wait to get my ATC Fall Swap Partner.

Me too Darlene! Its so funny how each 'layer' is evolving as I go! Had so many ideas it took a bit of deciding to narrow it down so I just decided to use my other favorite in making my cards for Portias card swap! Halloween one is half finished also! Best to do in batch form for me! ;)

I'm so having the same problem! I had so many ideas that I had to scribble them in my notebook... Scribble is the term because some are really incomprehensible! :P And inspiration has the knack to come when I'm not ready like when I'm driving or making supper... Really perfect timing... Anyways, I should start them soon! |

Well be careful when your scribbling and driving Marilou, Supper might mask the scribbling if you drop a mashed potato on it but on the other hand it might give you a new idea. I can hardly see what you come up with. Dianna batch form sounds good too. Me I am just disjointed and what ever comes to my head I work with, it seems to work for me.
