Description:

I have a similar swap going for more experienced swappers but I love Newbies and wanted to host an ATC swap for you to get in on the fun.

I have posted a link (above) to an excellent post on ATCs that I recommend you read over. For this swap you will make 1 atc for 1 partner in any theme. The catch is, the ATC has to include a postage stamp (used preferably, but new is absolutely allowed -I just don't want you to waste postage) and a page from a book.

I certainly wouldn't suggest just gluing those to a card and calling it done. I recommend you spend a bit of time and make something you'd like to receive.

You can be a newbie and/or have never made an ATC before. This is for everyone. However - I do ask that you have a filled out profile. Why? I feel it's essential to being a member here. Will not having a filled out profile keep you from this swap? Yes, it will. I will also remove anyone from this swap to keep the swap safe from flakers or what looks to me as flakerish behavior. If you have any issues, I'm kinda nice. A simple PM will go a long way when you're trying to be pro-active.

As with any swap I host--I require that you have fun making it :) and send something that you'd be happy to receive. Also be sure to include a little note with your SB username --and rate your partner upon receiving!! Take care.

I have been wanting to start making ATC's but was a little intimidated to join a swap, so this is prefect!!

hi, this might sound silly, but does it have to be an actual page from a book, or can it be a photocopy... cheers Leanne

@artytart1919 yes, it needs to be a real page. Buy a book at an op shop, or if you can't bring yourself to wreck one, perhaps use a bit of a page from a phone book.

Lizard - Thank you, I appreciate your advice. My mind is buzzing with ideas...much appreciated. Leanne

I'm so excited for this! Thank you for hosting it! I have completed a few swaps but have avoided ATC-anything for fear of doing something incorrectly. This is the perfect way to get my feet wet! Yay!
