Number of swap partners:20
Description:

I recently participated in the ATC Megaswap for US residents and it was such a huge personal success that I thought it would be great to hold an international one!

Imagine receiving 20 different ATCs from ALL OVER THE WORLD, and not just your boring old backyard :)

We will be trading 20 ATCs to 20 partners. That's one card to each of 20 partners for a total of 20 ATCs.
No set theme. Just go all willy nilly if you so please.

This is a fairly large commitment so unfortunately, no swappers with a 4.8 or lower rating and swapper must have at least 20 swaps under their belt before participating in this one. I may consider making exceptions to this rule, email me or PM me. This could be really great, so try not to flake.

Also, I should say this because all the other ATC swaps say this: "PLEASE NO STICKERS ON CARDBOARD". Put a little effort into your cards. Even if you're new to ATC's, you can have a little fun with them.

If you have any questions, concerns, comments or knock knock jokes, feel free to contact me anytime of the day or night and I'll do my best to help you out.

Since 20 different people get 20 different ATC's can u make some the same>?

lindsay 11/ 8/2008 #

I think that would be fine!

Im watching this one for now... I only have 14 swaps completed and will have more than 20, in plenty of time to sign up!! Looking forward to it and LOVE that its international (although, Im in the US).

lindsay 11/11/2008 #

We'd love to have you, SweetArt!

I'm watching this one too...but I'm not sure if I'll have 20 completed by December 6th...but I'm gonna try!

LeRay 11/14/2008 #

Rose 827 make a big batch of the same ATC's!

Emma08 11/18/2008 #

What happens if 20 people don't sign up?? Just curious... e :D

lorri 11/18/2008 #

If you are short on people - give me an email, and I will join too :)

LeRay 11/18/2008 #

I made a batch of different beautiful ATC's last night! I am so proud of them! I can't wait to trade with u guys! :D

lolacat 11/20/2008 #

if twenty people don't sign up, lindsay can just edit the swap and lower the number of partners to match the number of people signed up. if 15 people sign up, she can lower the number of partners to 14. i'm very excited to participate in a swap this big....i hope there will be more like it in the future!

lindsay 11/21/2008 #

Thanks Lori and thanks lolacat, for the hot tip, I wasn't aware I was able to do that. Until now, I just sat in bed at night with my fingers crossed, hoping that more people would sign up!! haha

lindsay 11/21/2008 #

LeRay- I am all set to go with my ATCs too! Very excited!

culpepper 11/27/2008 #

lindsay--

I actually think swap-bot does it automatically. It knows that it can't assign 20 partners if there are only 19 people in the swap, so if a swap doesn't have the minimum number based on the swap description (partners +1) it just assigns based on the number off participants (-1). R&T thought of almost everything!

KatarinaNavane 12/ 2/2008 #

I have completed almost 20 swaps and think I will have completed 20 by the signup date, assuming people assign partners promptly, but highly doubt I will have been rated for 20 by then. I have lots of cards already made and ready to go, 40 or so, so I could definitely do this and would really like to. Can I?

KatarinaNavane 12/ 2/2008 #

just completed #20. signs up You can kick me out before the swap starts if need be.

lindsay 12/ 2/2008 #

No no, I trust you, this will be fun! As long as everyone sticks to their word, I think this swap could be really great!

culpepper 12/ 5/2008 #

I've completed the basics of my 20- now I have to make them even better! :)

ArtGirl1 12/ 6/2008 #

I signed up today, but by my profile I have only 15 swaps complete.

All 5's and lots of hearts. By the time I need to send out these ATC's, I'll have WAY OVER 20 swaps completed and rated.

I so want to join this swap!!

Naoya 12/ 7/2008 #

culpepper 12/15/2008 #

sstudebaker17 12/26/2008 #

I have received an ATC without the artist's name. I assume it was for this swap. It was postmarked Sacramento CA. Please let me know if you sent it to me so that I will be able to rate you. Thanks! Susan.

i received a pink envelope from someone with no return address. it came to my PO box in a USPS bag claiming damaged in the process.. & it had nothing in the envelope. it says on the back of the envelope it's for the ATC Megaswap. if this is yours.. please lemme know!

LMM 01/ 7/2009 #

Hmmmm...I may have made a rating boo-boo and rated the wrong person. I just got a card from someone I had already rated :>)

If you sent to me and I haven't rated you yet, please PM me and tell me the theme/motif of the card!
