Description:

For this swap you will have 2 partners. This is an atc swap with a twist. Take a piece of sturdy artist paper or card. Draw your atc shape on it and cut out an evelope template around it and fold and secure.

You should now have an atc that is also an envelope. The front needs to be decorated like a regular atc, any medium but please put effort into it. On the back fill in your regular atc detail (name, location etc.) and fill the envelope with 5 flat surprises. It can be a cancelled postage stamp, kawaii flake, sticker, inchie.. whatever you like but must be 5 separate things.

The atc envelope must be regular atc size and be able to fit into an atc sleave. Please do not make your design too bulky with embellishments as it will be thick enough from having things inside and the envelope shape. lease lightly seal the envelope or tuck the top in to close it.

This swap does not need to be profile based but if you would like to check over your partners profile then that would be nice, specially for things they don't like or fears they have.

If this swap goes well I would like to do more of this type, specially with themes,.

After we make the ATC into an envelope, we are to put it into another envelope to send, right?? Just wanted to make sure before I decided to join. This does sound like a great idea!!

So this is a regular atc on the front, but the back has a small envie attched and has surprises in it? Great idea!

This is so much fun. I've just made mine and love the idea.

The atc itself should be an envelope and instead of the front of an envelope being addressed, this should decorated to be an atc. Yes, then you place the atc into a plastic sleeve (if you want) and then into a regular envelope and you can add a swap card or note and then just send it as you would send a regular envelope.

Here are some pics of one completed just as an example. I do realize the goodies go in the ATCE but it was just for example purposes. Link
