Description:
A collection of unique ATCs. You will have one partner and you will take their name and create an ATC using each letter in their first name. It may help to read your partners profile to learn about their likes and dislikes. This is a regional swap (sorry no international boppers (mail costs)). I OPEN THIS SWAP TO NEWBIES, but if you flake you will be marked as so. Try to create ATCs you would like to receive in your own collection. Please don't just send a rubber stamp on a ATC blank, put a little effort into it. If you need help with construction ATCs contact me and I will forward to you a brief instruction sheet. Be sure to include your email in the request. Here is a brief example of a name group: M - Maiden A - Attractive R - Radiant Y - Youth Total of 4 cards. Here's a helpful tip: Use a thesaurus to help with your ideas. Hope you will give it a shot. It will be fun to see what your partner comes up with. I have allowed plenty of time to create. Happy Crafting!

So, does it have to be adjectives to describe the person using the letters in their name, or can it be something else, such as J-Jellybeans? Just curious! Great idea! On my watch list for now. :-)

Sounds like a lot of fun. I will put in on my watch list.

just echoing 80sElectropop's question: rather than a characteristic or quality, are we allowed to do objects/places/etc? say, Ingrid wanted to go to Italy someday, could i do an Italian themed card for the "I"? :-) thanks!

My name is Kim. Which means I'll get 3 cards. With my luck, I'll get "Stephanie" as a partner. Not that I would necessarily MIND doing 9 cards in exchange for 3-but as far as my creativity is concerned, I'm not totally sure I could do a fabulous job if I have to come up with 9 different ideas. I am wondering if there is anyway we can combine letters to create a certain "maximum" number of cards? For example combine letters like "St" on one card and use a "St"ar theme or "St"unning? I'm with 80sElect and colleenp...can we PLEASE use other words to design with????

browniemommie2005 05/15/2009 #

Ok - I pm'ed K3 as I was wanting to know the same thing - about using "other" words to design with - as 80s said we can use a theme as long as it is something that our partner likes. I hope that helps on that part.

Sorry Kimi I did not ask about the "ST" thing.

Kimi 05/17/2009 #

Thanks anyway bm2005. Are we going to get partners for this swap?! I'm rearing to go!

Kimberly3 07/ 8/2009 #

Well, I guess it happens to the best of us. I got stiffed on this one. Did anyone else not receive their swap? If you would like to angel, let me know. K3
