The pictured ATC started with a playing card.

Will you be hosting another beginners ATC swap in the future? I would love to give this a try, but I would not be able to rate what I receive in a timely manner as I will be going back home to visit family for a few weeks.

@LaLuna If this turns out well and it appears it will, I'd be happy to host another one; maybe with more of a theme next time. Will you remind me when you return? Thank you and have a nice time with the family!

I sent my swap off today and was a bit annoyed because it was 64 cents!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My ATC was not bulky at all...what was THAT all about????!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I've noticed the post office is getting more and more picky! Did you write do not bend? They charge extra for that I think, or if it feels rigid, too. It is getting more and more difficult to keep postage down to one stamp.

No I did not write that. I started to, though.. Ugh.. Makes me sick
