Description:
I have been spring cleaning and realized what a stash of recycled items I have collected over the past year. Time to make something fabulous with those goodies! For this swap you will have 1 partner and to that partner you will send 1 ATC made from recycled components. Just to add an element of fun you should add any (2) of the following items to your ATC (realize this ATC may not be flat when you finish it depending on what you choose) 1) bits of lace, trim or other salvaged ribbon 2) Soda can tab 3) Fabric scrap 4) Broken jewlery ot other baubble 5) Button 6) Tea bag or tea bag envelope 7) Candy Bar or gum wrapper 8) brown paper or plastic bag scrap 9) food tin label 10) "used" greetingor post card 11) "used" envelope or stamp from envelope 12) playing card 13) cardboard box (think cereal box type) 14) puzzle pieces 15) game pieces ****NOTE I did edit this swap as I had not thought about allergies to dryer sheets...I added puzzle pieces in it's place :) No recent no sends. No 1's. I will review all swappers prior to assigning partners. All standard ATC rules apply for size. NO FLAKERS. As always do your best work and make it something you are proud to sign your name to!

Question - does it count as one of the two items if we use cereal box cardboard for the base? (Or a playing card for that matter, as I know a lot of people use those too.)

You made me up until 'used dryer sheet'. I'm wicked allergic to those! Hope to catch your next swap though. :)

misumisu22 03/15/2011 #

yep...using them as a base counts too! So sorry user2637....I hadn't even thought of allergies :(

user2637 03/17/2011 #

It's cool, I'm used to the limitations, but thanks for the frowny face. I do hope you do another one (without the dryer sheets?) if this one goes well!

User2637 Maybe you could asky your partner to Pretty please not use drier sheets :) then you can join! we all need to be a little green these days, with all this world falling apart drama :P

misumisu22 03/18/2011 #

I most certainly will!!

I don't use them user 2637 but if u put this allergy in y portfolio as allergy anyone that sends it is cruel. Misumisu22 maybe u could add check 4 alleregies as no one should miss out course of allergy. Or maybe take them out 4 something else as sure others wont mind if u edit it. MAYBE put jig saw pieces in it place. Can't wait to get started Oh I remember what was going to ask you could u do this swap on a skinny next time as gives us more room. TY

misumisu22 03/19/2011 #

I have never made a skinny but willing to give anything a try! I will also edit the sheets....:)

user2637 03/20/2011 #

Yay!! Thanks @misumisu22 and everyone! And thanks @craftycol for PMing me to let me know about the changes.

I do have a section in my profile too, for my allergies; it says I'm allergic to scented items, but I find a lot of people don't think about dryer sheets when they think of scented things.

Thanks again! Joining now! :)
