Description:

We had a small turn out last time I hosted this, but I really like the concept and my pretty envelope pile just keeps piling up. So I am running this again!

Hopefully I am not the only one inundated with really cool envelopes. Neat doodles, fun paper, weird stickers, crisp postmarks... I cut a lot of things out to save for later, but sadly I often don't ever actually use them.

For this swap, dig through your cool envelope pile and make an ATC with the stuff you find in there. You can use things like pens or paint or embossing powder to tie the ATC together, but please only use paper scraps and such from your actual received mail.

Don't worry about sending someone an ATC that uses something they sent you, If anything it would be flattering. But do try to take bits from several different envelopes/postcards/etc.

Please do not leave any addresses visible.

Due to personal reasons I pushed the dates on this swap out to next month. I need a bit.

I love this idea! Thanks for hosting, can't wait to send the one I'm working on. :)

I am glad you like the idea. (: I went through my mail pile (again!) tonight and am working on ... many of these. Defeating clutter by creating art instead of piles!

well.. I mean, creating piles of art instead of piles of random paper. :/

Haha, I need to do that a bit more. There just aren't enough hours in the day for work, school, sleep, and crafting! Can time travel be a thing already?!

Granted I make time for crafting and the like, or else I'd be totally crazy! :)
