ALPHA-2R..(FEBRUARY - 2010).. ATC swap
ALPHA-2R..(FEBRUARY - 2010).. ATC swap
February 2010
This is the continuation of our ALPHA-2 ATC swap
. . . . . . . . . . . . . Alphabetical ATC swap.
This months (December) title will be: ALPHA-2R. . . . . . folowed by ALPHA-2S and so on.
This ALPHA-2 started in September 2008 and I will run this swap for the full alphabet.
Each month will have a 'Sign Up By Date' and a 'Get It To Me Date'.= last Tuesday in every month
To join in you will need to make 4 portrait style identical ATCs (or as near as possible keeping the colours the same).
ATCs must measure 2.1/2" x 3.1/2" an International Size
Not just computer print-outs please, they must contain some crafting technique, so as to be fair to everyone.
. . . . 'Sign-up by date'.. for ALPHA-2R = Wednesday Februuary 17th
. . . . 'Get it to me Date.. for ALPHA-2R = Tuersday February 23th. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The reason for making 4 ATCs is, so that when your swaps returned you you will receive your own Number 1 of 4 (1/4) back each month and 3 of other peoples to collect. This gives us all chance to collect 4 complete alphabets whilst keeping a memento of our own Arty work to peruse for further ideas.
If you save the received swaps in a 9 pocket collectors page it is nice to able to view a 3 month swap on each page.

I received Stephs yesterday and Helens this morning.
Steph, thanks for phoning and I enjoyed the chat.
Friends, I haven't forgotten you altough I haven't been on here lately. I needed a nudge from Steph.
I must say thank you all for the super descriptions you put on the back of your 'TRASH' ATCs, really good they were and what I was hoping for.
If you would like to put the author on the back of your book ones it would be nice for us who wont recognise your book titles.
Although I didn't ask you to earlier as I forgot to.
I think Lauren will be doing some again this month.

These can be quite nostalgic as well. For the book one, it took
me back to my teens when I used to read PG Wodehouse books.
Loved them and it gave me a chance to remember them.

Nona I have done one set (number 1) this month, but missed the P.O. on Saturday (I needed to buy more stamps). They'll be sent First Class tomorrow; hope they get to you in time.

No, I'm not putting my 'to do' list here, that would be far to organised, PLUS I would have to keep it up to date
Re: ALPHA-2R..(FEBRUARY - 2010).. ATC swap
Have mine got to you Nona, posted them a week ago.

And you should have got Lauren's by now - She's not even on this list BTW.

Re: ALPHA-2R..(FEBRUARY - 2010).. ATC swap
Got them all girls and I now think, only think I have the recieved updated correctly.
We have some super NUMBERS ATCs in. Quite cute ideas. They are looking good. I think we will have a great series at the end of the year for our collection.
The MY BOOK ones are interesting too.
If you want to do the number 12 as well we could do that for our second theme for the DECEMBER month. Then we would have a set of 12.
What do you think pals? let me know please.

That sounds good Nona - 1 to 12 is good,
also, could we have a number freestyle at the end so we can do
any number not covered in the series (e.g. the 39 Steps, 76 trombones etc etc.)
That would be fun.

Oh Nona - I would adore to win the lottery. I don't want £50 million.
Just enough for a bit bigger house and enough to set my boys up in a house each.

Steph I wanted that 50 mill, but as I didnt have a ticket I will have to dream on. We would all of us on here be able to have a big get-together then with no worries. Hellicopters, limousines, the lot
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All PINKYs posted with POP receipt yesterday afternoon, and Photos have been labeled.

Gosh Nona - you were either up late or up early - depending if you had been
to bed. That sort of time is quite normal for me though.
Looking forward to the pinkies.

No I hadn't gone to bed just sat up on my PC, catching up with things.

Re: ALPHA-2R..(FEBRUARY - 2010).. ATC swap
Quite a varied lot this time and very colourful they all look together.
I'm a happy teddy, mine came today and I have Nona's roundabout, which has iompressed the whole family with the real trees in the centre, DH is pleased that the correct signs were used, I told him to expect no less from Nona!
I also have Helen's lovely ribbons, will stroke them in a bit, and Joy's roman artefacts which has a secret golden goddess on, when you tilt the ATC you can see her in gold on the RHS.
Thank you girls, I have a lovely collection now and I got a good start on the S's on the weekend away so count me in for them please Nona.
