November loot

From the group C&P Bits & Pieces - I received this gorgeous postcard from Mona (sunshinesuperman) - so lovely and perfect on the verso.

And this great piece from an altered page pc exchange - from Carroll Woods.

 From Madmadge's swapbot exchange "Occupy our future" - she sends this lovely card full of hope and optimism. She attended an occupy rally and carried a similarly shaped card. Appreciate the connection and love it! Thanks to everyone for these satisfying swaps.

Swapbot Groups

I've recently been invited to a couple of groups and I really appreciate it! These look like really fun groups that are right up my alley.


Swapbot Cut&Paste and Make me a paper craft kit are the two groups. I just missed a tag swap that looks very fun and I've signed up for

• C+P ATC+Envie: Fall/Winter
• C+P Postcard: Magazine Collage

with the Cut&Paste group. Looking forward to many swaps to come!

October exchanges ...

Halloween Postcard

Dog themed ATCs

Color orange postcard (2 partners)

zombie fiction postcard - this one was a lot of fun

Some ATCs

ATC with sewing

Pagan/Spirit animal ATC. My partner liked owls - I actually sent her both because I couldn't choose one but the swap called for 1 ATC, 1 partner

Green swap - this is a postcard to someone who liked fairies.

Queen Elizabeth ATC exchange

Recent outgoing

Peacock ATC swap - didn't go too well for me so I included other ATCs. Sorry Tere.

Zentangle ATC exchange - I am not terribly happy with the results of this either, so again, included extras. I hate chasing hearts but I don't want anything less than 5s. To Tami.

Next I signed up for an image transfer ATC exchange. I have a lot of trouble with image transfer. I love the technique but I think I'm giving up on the gel medium transfer technique. I just fail each time. This is a tape transfer (cheating) - no water involved but I still think the set of 3 are neat.

A few older things I sent out - lots of ATCs.
