Description:

I Got started on this idea by seeing similar swaps, Since I never got to participate in them I decided to start another one up. It’s just a regular ATC Swap the only thing is that they have to be made from recycled materiel. In fact everything should be made from recycled materials, the only exception is if you can’t find anything thick enough to use as a backing, You probably can so make an effort please. cereal box’s make good backs as well as a lot of greeting card paper. These are ATCs to salute the earth and transform some useless scraps to keepable art. I’m doing this after Christmas in hopes that gift-wraps and unwanted cards can be worked in. But it’s not a Christmas theme its just your artistic expression in recycled stuff.

Here are some ideas for materials:

Gift Wrap Cards Junk Mail Clips from magazines and catalogs Newspaper Tea Box's Food Wrappers Foam from trays

Rules:

6 ATC, 3 partners (2 cards for each partner) No one bellow a 4.7 rating please Newbies welcome This is international ATCs are regular size (2 ½ inch by 3 ½ inch)

Yay! Another way to send my dumpster treasures across county. This will use more stuff than the recycled inchies, so I get un-bury myself faster. I'm in!

Calendars! I've already made a very cool ATC by recycling "April"!

Ah yes, calendars. You can make some terrific ATC's from some of those images. I'm using my old calendar, as well as my neighbors, to make envelopes for the swaps as well. It's too bad we can't use "recycled postage" on the outside of the envelope - but of course, we can include it on the ATC! Happy swapping!
