Description:

I love Ephemera! For this swap, put together some supplies for 1 partner to use to make 1 ATC using paper ephemera. Include a 2.5 x 3.5 inch background cardstock or chip board and then other supplies to make an ATC. Ephemera should be mostly paper but you can include ribbon, and other embellishments - but include mostly paper.

No newbies, sorry. 5 rating only.

Quick turn around for this.
