Please read this regarding postage.

I got the idea for this swap because of the matchbox swap with the same theme. I haven't really gotten into matchboxes, but I'm totally into ATC's, and liking the theme I asked 'hoosiergirl' if it was OK for me to host a similar swap, getting the OK I'm making mine.

So, here we go...

This swap is for 2 ATC's to each partner, and you'll have 2 partners so that's a total of 4 ATC's you'll need to make to send.

The theme is Christian art... like what you might remember hanging in your sunday school room as a kid. The swap image is of a picture I had in my nursery when I was a kid. It holds a very special place in my heart.

Like all my ATC swaps you can making it however you want so long as it's standard ATC size and fits the theme. Make sure it's something you really like when you send it!

If you are new to ATC's or are curious about what they are a great site to read up on them is

I am not trying to exclude anyone, but if Christianity is not your belief or you are offended by this type of art then this is not the swap for you. Feel free to start a swap based on your own religious belief, I will not object.

As with all my swaps, I don't want to exclude newbies, so I'm trusting you will be an honest swapper and make good on sending your cards. If I find anyone flaking on any of my swaps I will black-list them from all my swaps forevermore.

You must have a 4.5+ ratings or better, and if you are a newbie you MUST have a complete profile filled out.

Also since there is a good amount of time before the swap date please post the icon for this swap on your blogs and spread the word. Most crafters love ATC swaps, lets make this a big one!

I ask that everyone who participates takes the time to leave comments/ratings once you receive your swap. If the person goes above and beyond in any way please give them a heart, these are the kind things that keep this swapping stuff fun!

I also ask that if you really love what you get that you scan it and upload it to the gallery! It'll be fun to see everything everyone creates and receives.

Forgot to mention... International since ATC's are cheap to send.

I started looking for art and found so many that I remember from my sunday school classes. Love this idea. Thanks for doing such a great swap.

Thanks Celestial for referencing my swap in yours :0) I'm excited to see what everyone comes up with. I, too, love the image you have posted. Actually it was the one I was looking for I havent done any ATC's yet. I'll try a sample of 2 before I sign up for a swap. I'll let you know how it goes. I'm so glad to see that there are several who appreciate this theme!

Does anyone know a good site for finding royalty free images for this project. I was asked and don't know. My plan was to use an old calendar or card... I'd love to know of any websites anyone knows of. Please post them in the comments here.

Really looking forward to this one. Thanks for picking this theme.

My Christian Bookstore has little cards for 15 cents that have Christian images; I'm hoping I can find a couple that fit... also, I was thinking of recycleing a couple of christmas cards. I don't really remember images in sunday school; just plain beige walls. BUT there was always a felt board in front of the class for the teacher to illistrate the stories. It didn't matter how old you were, there was always the felt board.....

Partners please?

CelestialFreak 01/30/2008 #

Sorry, I was sick (still am actually) so it took me a couple days, but I did eventually assign partners.

CelestialFreak 02/29/2008 #

My cards went in the mail today!
