Hi everyone, I just wanted to share a couple of ATC's that I created for 2 different swaps on Swap-Bot this week. The first one is for a Group called: Awesome Cat Lovers and this is for the March ATC Swap. Theme was Cat+Hat. This is my design. I love his kookiness. I hope my swap partner likes it. My second ATC is for a group called: Active Aussie SWAPaholics. We swap locally to keep our postage costs low. This is also the March ATC with a theme of "Strong women- in honour of International Womens' Day". I  didn't know where I was going with this but I found an article about ANZACs and it just came together like it was meant to be. I couldn't help thinking about the sacrifices that a lot of families make during war times: kids, women, elderly and men alike. We mustn't forget that some countries are still at war. I am so lucky to be living in peaceful Australia and may God protect all those innocent people who struggle to survive in war ...

Hi everyone, I make a lot of things and for the longest time, I didn't know what to do with what I had created until last year. I came across this GREAT swap community which I joined and have gotten to know so many nice people both regional and international. I have swapped and received and have loved every minute of it. Here are 2 of this month's swaps (both of which I am hosting): Swap 1: No-sew home made quilt cards The first 2 cards use strips of paper going horizontally. I also used 2 different embossing folders on the same paper to give 2 totally different looks.  Card 1: Paper from Best of Crate Paper Edition embossed with (Nellie Snellen) Swirls 1 Embossing Folder.  Card 2: Same paper embossed using the Damask Embossing folder by PortaCraft.   The next 3 are a quilted style that I totally love and adore. Card 3: Left over 1" pattern paper scraps arranged in a somewhat organised chaos formation using the Henna Embossing fold...
