Description:

If you have been in my totally tacky swap. You will love this challenge.

Of course we are making atcs. You will make 3. One for 2 partners and one for me as a hostess thank you.

What the Bleep? Is not for everyone. It is not for the faint of heart.

Ten lucky players will get an envelope, and find some challenging items inside to make 3 cards. You will not be able to make 3 identical cards. The real challenge will be How to use this stuff AND not make a holiday card. You may use anything in the envelope and on the envelope. You must use at least 2 things on each card.
You may alter the items, which is encouraged. Please do not just glue the items down to a background. You can paint, cut, tear, the items if you wish. Please have fun.

You will send me a card, and I will thank you in the comments. I wont be able to RATE all 10 of you. If you are lucky enough to get me a partner to send to, then you will make me 2 cards. I will put a photo of your card sent to me on flickr. with your nickname.

I will send my cards to my partners with the original envelope, sealed up so you can wait to peak til after you made your cards if you prefer. sometimes seeing others works ruins your muse.

This will cost me about $5 in postage to mail out. Which isnt a budget breaker. But if you see my profile,well you will know why I mention that part. If you can send me one forever stamp with your return, I would be grateful. Hubby wont complain about my mailing expenses. (I say it is cheaper than therapy)

This swap will close when 10 players not counting myself sign up.

This is usa only.

I LOVE your crazy challenges! :)

Heynowokay 07/ 6/2018 #

P.S. I don't have tons of forever stamps, is unused postage in the amount of a forever stamp acceptable?

AZmom875 07/ 6/2018 #

Yes, any postage works. SO does $100 dollar bills. hahahahahaha!

The envelopes wont go out til Monday.

AZmom875 07/ 6/2018 #

I hope everyone reads this. But, keep in mind that some of the odd things I am sending really do take color as in paints, and dyes very well.

mamajoy 07/ 6/2018 #

Can we add our own stuff or do we only use what you send?

AZmom875 07/ 7/2018 #

I will do another one soon, and Yes, you can use your own supplies, as long as you use at least 2 per card of the the What THE ??? stuff I send.

I received my envelope of randomness. Wow, what a selection of unique items.

AZmom875 07/14/2018 #

@bananers Did you say WT???? when you saw the stuff? It is odd.

janineureka 07/16/2018 #

I rcvd mine today. Well, this will be fun!!

Heynowokay 07/16/2018 #

Received mine today, let the games begin. P.S. Definitely not as weird as that cartoon lion/lizard puffy sticker one you ran last year! :)

AZmom875 07/17/2018 #

I thought the weirdest thing was the Cupcake Easter item, It was either a bunny or hatching chick. But yes, those wacky tacky animals were out of the box.

I got a hostess card today from @Kalalinga It is super cute. She also sent me a scanned paper of her other 2 cards. I am sure her partners will be very happy.

Thank you @Kalalinga for sending some postage to cover my outgoing expenses.

I will make an album on Flickr.com

@Heynowokay I got our mountain ATC. Great use of the items. and thank you for the vintage postage stamps. The will be cherished.

biobeemouse 08/ 1/2018 #

I'm a little confused. The envelope from you said you were one of my partners, however when I look to see "who to send to", I have 2 more partners. Neither partner is you. Who do I send to? Thank you for your help.

AZmom875 08/ 2/2018 #

You send one card to me as the hostess gift, and one card to the two listed in the swap are, See the partners you send to. I can send a pm.

AZmom875 08/ 2/2018 #

AZmom875 08/ 6/2018 #

@thequilterslink your card to me arrived. Really good use of the tea bag and chopstick wrapper

AZmom875 08/16/2018 #

@biobeemouse and all

I see the problem. I had a minor Typo on the paper, It should have read IF I am your partner, That one word makes a big difference, Spell check didnt catch it cause it wasnt a spelling error.

But today I got your cute cards. Thank you

AZmom875 08/21/2018 #

@janineureka
