ATC DIY Kits
Swap Coordinator:PostMuse (contact)
Swap categories: Challenges  Miscellaneous  Artist Trading Card (ATC) 
Number of people in swap:6
Location:Other
Type:None
Last day to signup/drop:October 15, 2016
Date items must be sent by:July 15, 2007
Number of swap partners:2
Description:

This swap again is aimed at those who are new to ATC's, though swappers of all experience levels are welcome.

For that reason no-ones work will be criticized here as we all have to start somewhere!

For this swap you will create an ATC. You will then send the items that you used to make that ATC to your partners, including instructions and either a photo of the finished ATC or the ATC itself.

1 DIY kit to 2 partners

Try to use the long signup and deadline times to learn a new technique to send to your partner so that this swap will benefit you both, though this is not a requirement and many of you will already have techniques that others are not aware of.

You do not need to include the items in your DIY kit that people are most likely to have such as glue and scissors but you will need to include any special paper or embellishments.

The theme is of you own choosing.

International. Newbies welcome with full profile and links. Those with more than one no send in the past 6 months to contact me or they'll be removed.

Just a note to those who watch the participants list. I ban after signup ends to stop them signing up again.

See the discussion thread on this swap for great links for ATC's!

Can we miss out one or two elements of the ATC? Like I'd love to partake in this swap with a dragonfly ATC I'm saving for another swap, but I only had one flower to stick on. All the rest I still have, though!

Ayii, Missing out elements of the ATC would mean that the reproduced ATC would be incomplete. You wouldn't like to receive an incomplete ATC so if you are sending items you cannot send two of, try to send an alternative. They do not have to be identical, just try to make sure they are a close as poss. I.e. a different flower sticker or even a cut out printed flower.

Thank you for my kit Ophelia73! I made it today - I uploaded an image to the gallery slideshow, but it has come out a little larger than I expected! Oops! A smaller version is on my Flickr page is anyone else is interested...

Ariana's arrived this morning - lovely, thank you! Very impressed :)

Ophelia, has yours arrived from me yet? :(

PostMuse 07/19/2007 #

Rillaith...I am very surprised the envelope I sent has not arrived. It was sent on Sunday and should have arrived :-(

Rillaith 07/22/2007 #

Yay, PostMuse - your envelope arrived yesterday, and it's lovely, thank you! I'd been wanting to find that foam stuff for ages, so Yay!!
