Last few Days!!!

Just a quick reminder that its the last couple of days before the TRIPTYCH swaps are due to be with me.....I have received a few (sneaky peeks coming up at the end of this post!) but have yet to receive quite a few from those of us who signed up (my own included I have to admit!!) Lol! Soooooo, I will hang on for a couple of days longer, as I know how busy we all are at this time of year, and November has caught many of us out by galloping by at a rate of knots!!! Hope that's ok with everyone?

As promised, here are a few sneaky peeks of the ATCs received so far...........

Looking good I think you'll agree?

NOVEMBER'S Theme announcememnt........

It's that time again folks, new month, new ATC theme. Not sure if any of you feel a bit like me, but I have decided to avoid the obvious 'Christmas' theme, as we can all get a bit bogged down making those Christmas cards at this time of year! Sooooooooo, instead, I've gone for something different, and the theme for November's swap is:

TRIPTYCH

Don't panic, it simply means that this month our ATCs must have 3 PANELS! My thoughts were that this way,we can all choose the theme for our own ATCs, so if there are some of you who can't get enough of Xmas (and I know of at least one!!) then we can indeed make them based on ANY theme, as long as they each have 3 panels.

Here are some examples to get you thinking.....

I really hope you feel inspired to join in this month....if you do, either leave a comment at the end of this post, OR drop me an email using the email address on the blog.

They're in the post!

November 1st already! And that means that the ATCs from last month's 'HARVEST and/or HALLOWEEN' swap have been swapped and are on their way to you as I type! There is a fantastic selection, a mixture of both themes, and I am really pleased to be able to share them with you now.....(for those who would prefer NOT to see them before the postie arrives, look away now!!!)

Aren't they FABULOUS! A huge thank you to everyone for joining in, and I really hope to see you all again next month.....the theme for which will be announced TOMORROW. As a thank you for taking part, I have also included a RAK for everyone, which I made using a fun freebie from Bugaboo.

OCTOBER'S THEME IS.............

For OCTOBER'S Swap, the chosen theme is:

HARVEST and/or HALLOWEEN

That basically means you can choose either or, OR a mixture of both (even on the same ATC if you like!!!)  Here are a few ideas to whet your appetite.....

Everyone should make 4 ATCs based on these themes.

If anyone is interested in joining,  please get in touch, and I'll send you details....everyone is welcome!

I hope to see lots of you able to join in again this month ;)

In The Post!

I can't believe it's the end of the month! Well done to everyone who has taken part, some FAN-TAS-TIC ATCs from you all, and I'm so keen to get them to you (esp Dawn who's off on holiday on Saturday!) that I've managed to get them out in today's post!

Just to put everyone out of their misery, Dawn was spot-on with her Black Beauty guess, so well done Dawn, look out for the little extra in your envie (and you too Ann!) And here they are in their full glory!

And for anyone who wants to see the rest, they are coming up now....(for those who'd prefer a surprise from the postie, look away now!!)

5 Days To Go!

Just a quick reminder that there are just 5 days to go until the deadline for your ATCs in September's TV/FILM swap. Here's a sneaky peak at SOME of those that have arrived so far.....

....hope that's whetted your appetite? And that's not all of them either! So, if you fancy swapping, you've just got enough time to get your ATCs made and posted before the deadline.......oh, and don't forget, HAVE FUN!!!
