View Full Version : atc 3 for 3 swap


LME
08-03-2006, 03:46 PM
Saw on another site that they swap sets with each other and send in a decorated envelope

Would anyone like to swap 3 for 3 in a decorated envie either one to one or if a few fancy it I will do a list and you send to the person below you:)


I will list all the above in no particular order then leave list open until Monday as there are a few already then is a week ok to make them as otherwise I get impatient so we just post one set of 3 to the person below us and the person at the bottom sends to me.

Please could someone say if they dont mind sending to Caz in Australia as she must be fed up of my atcs

Any problems send cazs to me and I will send on

I will copy this and list into first post.


Please make 3 atcs on any theme you want and send in a decorated envelope to the person below your name by 18th March

ps this can be extended a bit if anyone has any problems. Linda

Is there a template anywhere to make for the envelopes to fit the ATCs please?

LME

I will see if I can find one but I meant decorate the envelope you send them in ie say A5 so they will arrive looking nice:wub:

I have had some beautiful small envelopes sent to me but I store mine in plastic wallets so the envelopes dont fit in:huh:
I still keep them but I will have to find a way to use both I thought maye a mini book:wub:

Ohh just twitched you had added me to the list yayay :) Linda do i just pm efemera now to get her address??? and then send the three to her.. and do i have to use your envelope template or could i stick them in a home made tripple folder????
sorry im full of questions today :unsure:

Sky
12-03-2006, 12:24 PM
can any1 tell me, do the 3atc's have to be the same or can they be different, do they have to be all the same theme or can they be 3 random themes? thanks in advance :)

smurfie
12-03-2006, 12:26 PM
tracy... from what i gathered you do 3 different atcs as they are going to the same person.. but it is up to you wether those are within the same theme or totally unconnected :) i think :unsure: well, thats what i did anyway... :)

LME
12-03-2006, 12:57 PM
Thanks yes any theme:wub:

pm the person below you to get there addy:)

They dont have to be in individual envelopes unless you want to but decorate the one you send them in to give the postie a treat:lol:

smurfie
12-03-2006, 01:12 PM
ahhh ok.. i dont want to be a killjoy here :D my dh just walked past and read that last bit.. and he says that the more decorated and envelope is the more likely it is to get damaged when passed through machines, the posties dont really look at them... so maybe we should put the decorated envelope inside a plain one for safety sake's?? i wouldnt want my cards chewed up by some heavy duty sorting machine :blink:

oh.. and i noticed ellejay wants to play but shes not on the list... if its too late for her to join this one, could we both sign up for the next one?? being that shes my pal and all that :)

Efemera... you have mail :D
