Description:

This is a great way to RECYCLE unneeded materials! Some of you might be new and some might have been doing this for a while and have a lot of scrap things you might not need! This swap will give us all some items for making our ATC’s and give you an opportunity to pass on items you don’t need anymore. Please pick at least five (5) things from the list below and send them to your partner! Mixing and matching is allowed, sending more is also allowed!

The List – Some ideas of things to send…

  • 1 or 2 blank notecards and envelopes
  • 2 ATC blanks
  • 1 page of stickers
  • 10 used postage stamps (please don’t send more than 2 of the same stamp)
  • 1 sheet of nice scrapbook paper
  • 1 photograph you’ve taken
  • Interesting magazine clippings or newspaper clippings
  • A bit of Ribbon or lace
  • Seed beads or stone chips
  • Ticket stubs
  • Fabric
  • Scrap bits of paper
  • Embellishments of any sort (coins, feathers, keys, gems, old jewelry, etc)
  • A few plastic card sleeves
  • Postcard, used or new
  • 5 buttons
  • Few pieces of ephemera, old or new
  • 1 or 2 ATC's you've been traded and no longer desire in your collection. (Touchy subject, proceed with caution)

Newbie welcome with a filled out profile, if you have any recent 1’s or 3’s please contact me. If you don’t contact me and I check your profile and see them I will ban you from the swap, I’m sorry but I try very hard to keep flakers away. I will angel if necessary, but please if you aren’t planning on sending DON'T JOIN, right? PM me with any questions.

Feel free to post here some suggestions for things you could use, for your partner to check out, especially if there are some things you don’t need any more of, or some things you really would like (such as wanting more buttons, or wanting a certain color of fabric, etc). - but remember this is sender's choice so you might not get what you suggest.

USA only swap - I will make an international one as well.

I usually send my unwanted supplies to a crafty aunt but will be happy to share with a swap-botter.

For my partner, I dont need any blank ATCs or sleeves. I would in fact appreciate some ribbons, as I dont have much left.

alyiceedrich 11/ 7/2009 #

Im looking forward to this. I've already got mine ready to go out! Even a few handpainted inchie papers, included!

1 day left to join, if any of you watchers want to be part of this swap!

I have plenty of ATC blanks- I cut up the cereal boxes- and I have a ton of sleeves with the adhesive to close them and plenty of lace as I sew, too.- lmk if you want some. I would love to have some photos if anyone has any available to share. I don't have any seed beads or slivers of stones if you can part with some.

There is something wrong with the site right now, so I will assign partners as soon as it will let me, but if it doesn't let me tonight I won't be able to until late tomorrow night (Sun) so it will be done!

druideye 11/ 8/2009 #

I'd love embellishments, stickers (not cutesy ones), magazine clippings, and I always love ephemera. I also need dominos and/or scrabble tiles for altered art if anyone happens to have some they don't need! I've got plenty of buttons and plenty of ATC blanks and inchie blanks.

ElleBelle 11/ 8/2009 #

I'd love just about anything, though I already have TONS of buttons. So maybe not buttons unless they are really unique. I signed up for this because I'm new to ATC's and I don't have a lot other than colored papers and drawing stuff to use for them. So anything from more experienced swappers is always welcome and appreciated :)

MissJay 11/ 8/2009 #

I'd like various colors of embroidery floss that I use to sew yo-yo's.

MissJay 11/ 8/2009 #

oops, maybe I was thinking of another swap. I'm always on the look out for small things that work for ATC's.

What are stone chips? Where can I buy some?? (sorry, don't know what they are)

MissJay 11/ 9/2009 #

Aren't stone chips AKA mica chips? That stone material that chips off in semi transparent flakes.

druideye 11/ 9/2009 #

you can buy chips of all kinds of different crystals and rocks and even coral at any craft store that sells beads usually, they are strung on strings and are usually used for jewelry making.
