Description:

Ok, so from sign ups (or lack thereof) I'm guessing the mega ATC swap is too much for most of you! So let's try a swap with half the number of ATCs.

This is a mini mega swap. Traditionally you make 20 ATCs and send them to 20 partners. Nice idea but that costs too much in postage. So for this one you will make 9 ATCs and send 3 to each of 3 partners. Each partner must get 3 unique ATCs. Any theme, medium or technique is fine but please avoid your partners' dislikes. (If you also join the Mega ATC swap and get the same partner(s) please make sure ALL of their ATCs are unique.)

*Please use at least 1 layer and 2 embellishments on the main area of each ATC. Please use ALL quality items to make these ATCs.

*Stickers, AS ACCENTS, should be limited to high quality scrapbooking or card making stickers, not the kind meant for kids or teacher’s reward stickers.

*If you use rubber stamping; please stamp cleanly, missed areas or double lines are not acceptable.

*Please do not use computer generated images or sentiments because I have been very disappointed by images printed in very poor quality lately. (If you print them well using very good quality paper and ink, your partner won’t know and can’t rate you badly for it can they?? Wink wink)

*Please make a beautiful ATC you are proud of and would be thrilled to receive. Make sure your work is clean and precise. No glue should show and straight cuts need to be straight.

*Please don't be discouraged by my rules. I am only referring to general tidy practices, not tiny flaws. I've received a card so saturated with glue I could knock on it and get hollow noises! I've received a note book with edges that looked like they had been cut with a saw! I just expect tidy work!

*Please check your partner’s profiles for dislikes and avoid those. For instance, do not use emerald green or bright orange on mine because I hate those colours.

*Please have a 4.95+ rating to join and no 1's EVER or 3's in the last 6 months. I will accept explanations of course, PM me ahead of the sign up deadline. Newbies are welcome with WELL FILLED out profiles (About Me, Likes, Dislikes at least) and MUST PM me at least 3 days before the end of the swap to show good intentions. A newbie is someone with less than 5 completed and rated type 2 or 3 swaps. If you see a flaker has joined, don't worry, I will weed them out. If you are really worried, give me a heads up! I’ve been flaked on too many times, I've stopped keeping track, so I get it!

Enjoy! Rebecca

So does that mean you have to make 9 totally different cards or can it be 3 sets of 3 cards i.e. 3 different ones for each person but the same set for each person? Gosh! It's hard to explain what I'm trying to say!

Not sure if you'll read this but the swap isn't due yet and I would love to join the next mini mega atc swap and yes postage is the issue here in Canada! Sending that many when lots could be International is very pricey and to tell the truth more than 80% of my swaps are "Way" poor. Hoping to find some diamond crafters yet!!! Let me know!!! I have a craft day on Friday and I intend to make tons of fab atc's!
