Well, it looks like I am only going to get to post once a week during the school year! I guess once a week is better than once a month, though! I was able to complete 6 ATCs yesterday. (I went to bed last night thinking about the story of the "Brave Little Tailor". I wanted to post that I had completed 6 In one day! Okay, I know only a librarian would think that way!!! LOL) I am now finished my cards for the name swap, and my two Louisiana trades. I am really pleased with the way they all came out. I am looking forward to seeing the comments from those who receive them.
I just joined another group that is just for JAMs. I am not sure exactly why they are called that, but this is how it works: Someone designs a background, then chooses someone else to send the cards to. That person adds to the cards and sends them to a third person, who completes the cards, keeps one for themselves, and sends the other cards to the first two people. I like the idea of sharing the creative process. And it not as limiting as some swaps. The first jam that I worked on is going to be mailed tomorrow. I just received another set, yesterday. So, I am going to work on those today, as well as, a couple of Halloween cards that I am making for a Blog Party. I am not sure exactly how that works. It seems that one person sends out an invitation to others and posts their url's, then others will go to the blogs, and post all the url's and all the blogs will have a Halloween theme. Sounds like fun. I will post more about that when I know more.
I finally!!! uploaded a few of the cards that I have received from trades and swaps on Picasaweb. You can find the link in "links" on the left of this page under Nolatcher's ATC. Check them out! Very diverse styles, which is the great thing about this process. I get to actually share others creativity and it becomes part of my collection. I will continue to post as they come in.
Happy blogging and crafting this week!
