Description:

in this swap we will be making 2 ATC's for 2 people. thats 4 in total.

the ATC must have words as the background. then add anything else you wish. can NOT be just the background words.

you can use words from scrapbook paper, stickers, newspapers, magazines, junk mail, advertisements.

NO WRITING THE WORDS

you can NOT just write a few words on it and call it a day.

like say you got a piece of paper that is for valentines and its all sweet words you can use that as the background then add some lips to it. or something sweet to it.

guidelines

no recent no-sends. must be in good standing. 4.5 or higher. i will ban flackers and suspicious people.

Can be international as it wont cost much to send

Great idea

ladydy5 06/30/2008 #

Is this like a newspaper swap or is it just separate words glued on to an atc card and then embellished?

bluecrayons 06/30/2008 #

hi lady. you can use newspaper as the background paper. you can even glue words on it.

the background must be words. but not written words.

then you just add a few more other things.

like say you got a peice of paper that is for valentines and its alll sweet words you can use that as the background then add some lips to it. or something sweet to it.

hope this helped

Thanks, that is what I thought. I have done it with newspaper background before, it is fun to read the paper you are putting on your atc and then embellishing it reminicent of the article.

do the ATC's need to be of any particular size?

chimerix 07/ 7/2008 #

dani - ATC's are always 2 1/2 inches x 3 1/2 inches.

Hey everyone: I'm not a newbie to swapping but I am to ATC's and want to "break in." I think I get the gist of the ATC rules, but I have a question: Can ATC's have dimension like with charms and things that might hang off of them? Or are they to be completely flat like a sports trading card?

When will partners be assigned?

ColorInFusion 07/17/2008 #

I was wondering when the partners will be assigned, I have my cards all ready to go.

coolcamaro 07/17/2008 #

SweeTart77 - I put all kinds of embelishments on my ATCs. I figure so long as it fits the demensions (2 1/2 X 3 1/2) and into one of those little plastic sleeves, then I'm golden.

bluecrayons 07/19/2008 #

sorry i was out of town. didnt have time to assign partners cause i had to leave 5 days before the assign date but there assigned now. sorry

to answer the questions. all backgrounds must be words. then you may add anything else you wish to it.
