i am a bit confused, but i think i have an idea... this ought to turn out very interesting! can i just use on large face cut from a magazine, or would that be cheating? susi

Susi 02/ 8/2007 #

simply sarah, are you the one who was not sure about tag art? if so, please email me so that i can explain it to you. I just did a quick tutorial in the comments, and if it was you, I hope that you'll join us. susi

Susi 02/ 8/2007 #

oops, it wasn't you, but now it's an open invitation to all! susi

simplysarah 02/ 9/2007 #

tag art? I havent tried this yet? maybe its gonna be my newest addiction?

simplysarah 02/ 9/2007 #

by the way.. if we don't have very many people sign up we will rearrange how we send them... k?

Susi 02/10/2007 #

what will we do if we don't get 8 participants...? we only need three more!

Susi 02/10/2007 #

lol, I better read the comments before I send one

simplysarah 02/11/2007 #

hehehe

Cariemay 02/11/2007 #

Maybe if there are only 6 of us when the swap closes we should keep more pieces of our original, or send out two pieces to two of our partners - what do people think?

simplysarah 02/13/2007 #

i'll let ya know in few days...

paperholic 02/15/2007 #

ok, I;m in - I think it could be very interesting. Fingers crossed we get a couple more.

simplysarah 02/16/2007 #

i have a few newbie friends of mine in my town on here I'll get them in here.... k?

user5648 02/18/2007 #

We need one more participant. What would swapbot do if we don`t find a nineth one?

user5648 02/20/2007 #

I uploaded a picture of my picture. It is carneval and she is dressed up.

paperholic 02/23/2007 #

Wow, Murmel, Carneval is just gorgeous.
Simply Sarah - I was obviously a bit previous in my message to you - I now have my partner list.

user5648 02/24/2007 #

paperholic, thank you! A second one is in progress: a boy with red wool hair. Maybe I will make a third one: man without hair to prevent that one partner only gets hair on the ATC. This swap is fun!

MerriAmelie 03/ 3/2007 #

my cards are finished! they are in the mailbox for monday! enjoy!

MerriAmelie 03/ 3/2007 #

i was going to upload the pics, but i keep getting fatal errors! anyone know what i am allowed since its says "bmp"s are not allowed???

paperholic 03/ 5/2007 #

I've just uploaded my picture before it was cut - Merri I had no problem uploading. I don't know what "bmps" are, but possibly it stands for "bitmaps". Maybe your image is not formatted as a jpeg? If you make it 72dpi it usually comes out the right size and not too big. (Mind you, I am basing this on ny vast experience, having successfully uploaded 2 images!!!)

Anyway, I have embellished my ATCs a bit after cutting - except for one, for which I can simply find nothing appropriate (sorry Minty). They'll be in the mail tomorrow.

simplysarah 03/ 9/2007 #

I got an ear and dog part...hmmm. hope to see more soon.

simplysarah 03/ 9/2007 #

its the 9th and only half of you have marked this as sent??? will my picture be "half the man i used to be?"

user5207 03/12/2007 #

My cards began their journey today. I'm sorry for being so late. I was ill for a week and am terribly backlogged with my swaps. Anyhow I uploaded a full face pic, so you can check it out and guess which piece will arrive to your mailbox :)

simplysarah 03/12/2007 #

today I got a left eye piece from paperholic.... I love the art!

also in case you didnt guess... I cant upload dor somereason so for those of you who didnt guess... my atc's ara simply a leprechaun! Happy St. Pattys day to you all (I know Im early!)

simplysarah 03/13/2007 #

i recieved from kimworm today...

Cariemay 03/15/2007 #

Hello everyone I have lots of top right hand corners - is anyone missing any?

simplysarah 03/15/2007 #

everyone probably...I have alot of left side middle and merrieamelie has all of the number 8s... i think i screwed up!!! so does any body want to resnd or trade??? please post what you have extras pieces of and which pieces you need...... so i have almost a full picture...I do have to say that I just figured that the computer would give us all the same list of 8 partners!!! I should have thought about this sooner.. sorry guys!

simplysarah 03/15/2007 #

if you want to trade I have... 3 extra pieces for #4 middle left side. I also have 1 extra piece for top middle(but that one is my extra from elke) I know that merrieamelie has several #8's.

I need numbers:1,3,7,8

hey merrieamelie... want to send me your 8 and Ill send you one of my 4S??

Prpldy 03/17/2007 #

Mine are messed up too but will have to see what I have and then send another post. At first I thought I was going crazy....hehehe...I'm just glad it is not me that has too many of one part or another.

simplysarah 03/19/2007 #

carie may & everyone else... send me a message and let me know what pieces you have that i need and what you need and I'll see if I can trade ya K?

Prpldy 03/26/2007 #

I have 6 of #1, and I am missing: 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8.

It would be nice if someone could figure out who should trade with whom so that we can get a complete picture. Or should we do another new swap but have Sarah make up the list and not use swap-bots list for trading?

simplysarah 03/26/2007 #

okay so I am going to send to kim worm 19, prpldy, cariemae, and anyone else who bothers to post and lets me know what they need!

i need pieces 1,2,3,6,7,8 (i have a #3, and #6 which were from the extra picture that murmel made)

iam sending out my pieces of #4 left side middle row.

please post and let me know what your sending in return so i dont get another duplicate....
