Old Box ATC #4

I totally enjoyed doing this swap in round 3. It really is such a no-stress swap. I personally had to do just a bit of extra embellishment but since the requirements do not state that this is needed, if others just send carefully cut out boxes, then they have fulfilled the rules and should be rated as a 5. My partner was a newbie and I enjoyed her cards.

oh you did have to make yet another swap!!! and I am swearing off swap bot, with all the silliness about ratings going on.... but what shall I do with the bag full of old box atcs that I have already made??? I'll think about, sp0zy mme friend... maybe i'll join. but like I said, we'll see... love always, susi

This one sounds like a lot of fun! Old tissue boxes have beautiful patterns that I've been using for a while now...

I'd love to join, but I have a silly question....When you say "old boxes" - do you mean vintage old, or ones that we're just done using? I'm new to ATCs so please forgive my not knowing. Sorry to sound so dumb - but I'd hate to disappoint a swap partner:-))

pam, it means like cereal boxes, food pkg boxes, anything like that! They are super easy, and fun to do, and easy to embellish, if you choose to.. I usually just use stickers! have fun! susi

Susi thanks SO MUCH for answering my question. I was hoping that was what an "old box atc" was---as I've started scrounging my cabinets and cutting boxes apart:-)) I'm looking forward to joining in the fun of this swap! Thanks again!!!!

Love this idea. It is so imaginative and fun to do and EZ.This will be my third. Keep it up.

alteredtome, Merri Amelie, and Searight your ATC's have been dropped in the mailbox, they are coming from Canada.

sent today to littledragon, PamBartlow, and Starwatcher!

Now I can't throw out any boxes....Sent ATC's to Shirley in Oregon, Sandra in Florida andElla in Illinois. Think I remember Ella. Enjoy it is always a fun thing to do.

Cooan, I received your cards today! Good job! I especially liked the "Clif bar." God pic!

my boxes are in the mailbox for the morning... sorry so late, my mom is visiting from several states away ;) and i am spending my "crafty" time with her!!

Searight, I received your cards today, thanks so much, they are great. M

PamBarlow, your Old Box ATC's arrived today - and they are Terrific! You sure gave me some good ideas for future swaps from looking at what you did. Hard to believe these are 'Firsties' for you. Good job! and thanks!

To sp0z, Mariah and kitkat- your swap is on it's way. Sorry it's a day late but I have a numerous supply of excuses if you need them- haha. This was fun again. There are so many cool things to do with just a limited bit of supplies. Sometimes it makes you even more creative. I think this will be my last swap for awhile as some other stuff needs tending to now. Later...

Kit Kat,

Received your cards today. They are great esp the one wtih the zebra i am a pepsiholic and i can recognize that logo a mile away.

Peggy Berringer, I received your letter today, your cards sure don't look like a beginners!! They were awesome!! And thanks so much for the little extras, that makes swapping so much the better and fun. Mariah
