April 2017 ATC Swap Theme

[pyjama princess]

Sorry this is so late - time seems to have run away with me this month!
As I'm posting the theme late I'll let the swap run until Friday 5th May to give everyone more time.
So the theme this month is.................An Open Theme.
Make 2 ATCs on any subject using any craft method you want to. If anyone wants to join in with the swap and doesn't know what to do just post in this thread or sent me a PM - you'll be more than welcome to join us.
Have fun everyone!

[Julie]

I'll join please.

[EssexAnne]

Yes please!

[Mitzi]

I'll have to see how I get on as I have quite a few family birthday cards to make this month.

[Mitzi]

Oh, hang on a minute, it's an open theme! I have some part-made ATCs that I made a while ago so I should be able to just finish them off quickly. Count me in!

[Susan W]

I'd like to join in please.

[pyjama princess]

Welcome to our little swap Susan. There's a sticky thread at the top of the ATC section explaining how things work but if you're stuck just ask away. I'll PM you my address for the ATCs to come to.

The first set of ATCs have arrived - they're mine LOL! Really enjoyed making these. Usually when there's an open theme I struggle to think of what to do. This time I'd sat at my desk and was putting things away when I came across something and thought 'I think this might fit on an ATC'. And before I knew it I'd made 2 different ATCs that I'm quite pleased with.
It's a BH weekend this weekend and as I've extended the closing date to the 5th May I bet you'll all be making your ATCs this weekend won't you?

Yes! In my case, anyway.

[Julie]

Mine are done, in the post tomorrow.

[pyjama princess]

Thanks Julie.

[EssexAnne]

Posted mine Saturday though not sure if they were collected. Should arrive by tomorrow though.

[pyjama princess]

Will look forward to getting them Anne - thanks.

[Julie]

Mine went in the lunch time post.

[Susan W]

Mine in the post today as well. Hope I made the last post, had to go into town for stamps as we have no post office anymore and the local shop doesn't sell stamps!

[pyjama princess]

Mega post delivery here today! Three ATC envelopes, thanks to Mitzi, Julie and Anne and well done Anne on managing to get May's ATCs done at the same time.
Now I know they're on the way I'll wait for yours to arrive Susan.

[pyjama princess]

And Susan's ATCs arrived today as well as her ATCs for the May swap.

I'm hoping to get the swap done and in the post today so that you'll get them back by Monday.

[pyjama princess]

I managed to get to a post office and the post box would have been emptied at 5 pm today. All the envelopes were quite thin so you may find your second class 'Large Letter' stamp is treated as 1 st class and they arrive tomorrow.

[EssexAnne]

Wow P P , you were right. My ATCS arrived this morning! Thanks.
