frog atc extras

Both my partners in the fat cat exchange like frogs, so since I usually throw in an "extra", I made them each a frog atc.


fat cat atc swap

The theme of this atc swap was Fat Cat. I just learnt how to do Iris folding ( you fold paper in a circle to end up resembling the iris of a camera lens). So, I tried my hand at a few- the blue is my first attempt. Got better on the second try.






I have a die punch to create punched out cat images on a piece of paper- I harvested all the little punches and glued them on the cat outline to create this:

monster angel

I was reading the swap bot forum and came across someone who had been flaked on in the Monster under the Bed swap. I decided to try my hand at monster manufacturing and sent her a larger monster and her 3 boys mini monsters.

Favorite movie ATCs

The theme of this swap was to send an atc that represented your favorite movie. I have a few favorites but I picked Random Harvest and Wizard of Oz.

Mickey Mouse

An upcoming ATC swap is featuring a Mickey theme, so here is my attempt.



Here is the atc I received from disneyrider

Raw food recipe swap

Well, just sending recipes and ideas didn't seem like enough so I made a raw themed ATC to send to each of my partners.

stuff swap

I'm in a few swaps that you send mostly store bought items- tea, cocoa, chocolate, notecards, candles, the like. I made a few pair of earrings to send to the girl I am swapping with in Australia.

handmade jewelry swap

In this swap we had to make a piece of jewelry that we though our partner would like. My partner doesn't wear earrings and likes industrial jewelry. I went to the hardware store and bought nuts, washers, gaskets, drain plug chain and added some rabies tag holders and tags. I came up with these necklaces to send.


The next one's a bit funny- she can switch the tags to suit her style.


My partner also likes photography and odd trees so I sent a photo I took and developed by hand when I was doing b/w photography.
