December theme "Angels"

Finding images to inspire you for December's swap was about the easy one I have done so far. There are lots of images of angels. I added one of my own it is the artwork from my novel , my oldest sons artwork. As you can see I am very proud of it.

In light of the craziness going on with the swaps. I' m asking for those who want to take part in December swap to email me blissfullatcswap@gmail.com... that way everyone who wants to take part is committed to the swap and hopefully it will be stress free  .... if I don't hear from you will not pair you with anyone...

The deadline is 27th of November that gives me time to put the partners together.

Thank you for your understanding.

Can anybody find me some one to swap

As in the wonderful lyrics of the band Queen but instead of wanting to find love I need someone to swap with Angela...she can't get hold of her partner and has a wonderful ATC begging to go to a new home.



 Can anybody find me somebody to love (swap)



Ooh, each morning I get up I die a little


Can barely stand on my feet


(Take a look at yourself) Take a look in the mirror and cry (and cry)


Lord what you're doing to me (yeah yeah)


I have spent all my years in believing you


But I just can't get no relief, Lord!


Somebody (somebody) ooh somebody (somebody)


Can anybody find me somebody to love (swap) ?



Hugs Wendy

I am taking Lucille's advise so I am 21 today. Oh Okay ! maybe not 21 but you are as young as you feel and today I feel young. So bring on the cake and music.

Hugs Wendy

Big news

I have made a new button for the blissfull ATC swap. I hope you will take it and add it to your blogs . It is very cute. Also
in the new year I'm opening the Blissfull ATC swap up to Canadian swappers.



 and lastly  I wanted to find out if any of you would be willing to swap with more than one person. As you will see from the swap list if someone new comes in at the last minute I tend to swap with them but I need some help. I need people who could make a extra ATC to send if needed.  I would put the names on a roster so you wouldn't have to do every month.  Please if you think you could help please email me at blissfullatcswap@gmail.com 

Hugs Wendy

Let the swapping begin!














Reminders: Mail out on the 15th but if you are ready before you don't have to wait until that day.

Nothing more disappointing

There is nothing more disappointing than running to the mail each day hoping that you will get a ATC from your swap partner.

We are having a lot of swappers who are not contacting their partners and are not sending back ATC's, which is disappointing for me and for the person who has send a piece of their art... 

I want this to be fun and enjoyable swap for all . So a reminder if you sign up for a swap I need you to follow through get in contact with your partner and send a ATC to your partner .. I don't want to black list anyone but if you don't abide with the swapping rules I will take your name off  the Blissfull site....

Thank you Wendy

On the 3rd day of Christmas, my true love give to me three french hens, two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree.

Each person will create 12 ATC in the theme of the twelve days of Christmas. I will email which number is yours.


The ATC must be 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches (regulation ATC size)
Once the ATC arrive here due date 15th November I will sort them into the 12 days and mail them back to you with a little surprise, (Santa won't let me sent them without some Christmas magic)

I had a question in comments and to to explain my thinking

you can make 12 ATC all the same or 12 ATC different but in the same theme. So if you get, say day 3 three french hens you can make each ATC different as long as there is three french hens somewhere on those cards....hope that helps to explain... if you have any more question please feel free to email me or leave a comment hugs Wendy

October 30th Happy Brithday Missy



Missy

Have a great day!



Theme for November "Open or you could say "things you love"

When we thought of this theme we had visions of you making ATC of what you loved. For me (Wendy)that would be cute faeries, but also my family , my boys, my dogs and making art,nature, chocolate the list could go on and on . So is instead of saying just "open" theme I'm going to call it
" Things that you love" so I don't have any pictures to inspire you today.  I looking forwards to seeing what you come up with , I know you will not disappoint me with your insight and  wonder... remember have fun.

Hugs Wendy

Handing Over The Reins

Hi! Girls,
Wanted to thank everyone for all the kindness you have shown
me these past few weeks.  Having surgery makes you think
and re prioritize.  I have asked Wendy to allow me to take
a backseat with this great Swap blog.  Truth be known Wendy
does all the work anyway.  When she was thinking about
starting a Swap Blog she just needed a little encouragement.
I was happy to help her get it off the ground and now she is
in full control.  I will still be swapping so don't think you will
be getting rid of me completely.
Love to all,
Debbie

I want you

http://blissangels.blogspot.com

Thanks
