Just a little bit of info for my future ATC swaps.
There will be a theme named TRASH.


It may not be on the next ATC list of swaps you get but it will happen.
So keep your suitable rubbish (with ATCs in mind) that you normally bin the next few months.

I thought this would give you time to look at trash with a different view Roll Eyes

Thrifty, yes 1 bit fell off your No1. when I took it out the packet (for photos) so I stuck it back on with silicone.

Goatys seen it now and has 24 hours to make 4 Ks if she want to join the swap (Fuller day tomorrow). Ha ha, I don't think she will.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
P.S. There's no guarantee she'd get one anyway as it's nearly pot luck.

Thinking Nona - do we still have to do 4 identical ones when the TRASH swap comes up ?
It might be hard to get 4 lots of trash the same

Yes Steph, that's why I put the info up early to give us a lot of time to collect.

It probably won't be before Christmas as our 'Green swap list' we are on now runs untill October.
I could start the new year with it if you think that's about right? because our YEAR theme ends then.

We always get a lot of junk at Christmas anyway so that should make it easier

Psst Lorraine there's that word for you.

PS. Steph, I only thought about it when I was chucking all the rubish away after coming back from shopping
on Friday so I went delving back in my ribbish bin to retrieve an item that I might use.
I will have to wait for another BOGOF first though as I din't usually buy that particular item.
My secret stash Toothy Grin trash.

That's fine - as long as I know. It may be that one piece of rubbish could be cut/torn
into 4. We'll see.

Steph, the more you ponder over 'trash' the more ideas you will come up with.
I think as it will be a few months from now we should be able to come up with 4 bits the same.

Trouble is I look at everything with different eyes now
since going onto crafting, Idea I don't know whether that's good or not though!

Agree - before I throw anything away these days i think 'can I use that for
anything' and I have a whole boxful of 'maybes' Smile

Yeah, but after a couple of years, when all the 'trash' takes over your craft room, you have to have a clear out. Laughing Hard

Ah, that'll be where I've gone wrong then!
I often intend to have a clear out, but never get rid of as much as I ought to.

Oh I do try and keep things down but it doesn't work. I find it difficult
to throw things away (in case it comes in handy). Den calls me a hoarder and I
suppose I am. trouble is, not having a craft room, I have to stash things all
over the place.

Snap Steph, I also have my 'junk' all stashed over the place.
I now have a Cuttlebug (I like it better than my original Sizzix or Wizard)
and my DH has named it Clutterbug !!! I wonder why.

Ooh lovely, I'm surprised there isn't another kiss, but I never even thought of keys, so that's what I know. Laurens is lovely, very neat, and I do like silhouettes.

Di - I love your kingfisher - my favourite bird (with swans). They are
so pretty. Please Nona, send me one of those (I know they've already
been posting - fingers crossed.) and Karelyn - love yours and if I had had to
guess who had made it I would have thought Goaty. It's lovely.
I don't mind what I get - they are all fabulous, love the Kremlin and
King Kong. Fab bunch.

Mine arrived this morning; Kingkong, much to the amusement of DH, I think it's great thanks Cynthia, Stephs keys, which are lovelier IRL, the backing paper has keys on and one of the other keys is metal, and the Kremlin by Amulree, still trying to work out how that's done as it has a semi gloss finish, very nice all, happy teddy here.

Yes Karelyn I thought it might be printed on photo paper but I don't think so.

Please let us know how you did it Amullree

Wow - so pleased, I got Di's kingfisher, Sue's gorgeous Kremlin
and Helen's key.

Lauren did the K swap and she got Sue's Kremlin, Karelyn's kiss
and Barbara's kennel. She is thrilled with them.
