Description:

So my weakness is a sale sign in a craft store - all my frugal powers fly out the door and the ship sink.

So for this swap I have decided that we are going to challenge ourselves and NOT use any of the nifty crafting toys we have. We are restricted to a newspaper and nothing more to make up an ATC. So no stamping, no drawing, no enhancing in any way - just a newspaper to do it all with. Let's get creative, people :)

So grab a newspaper (local or foreign) and put your collague skills to the test. Layer up different images, texts etc to make something out of well, yesterday's news. Origami would work pretty well too :)

Obviously you have to have your basic tools - glue and scissor, but nothing more than that.

Usual ATC stuff: 2.5x3.5", sturdy back, info on back.

To join: 4.9+, no recent 1's and 3's. Ban as I see fit.

Any questions or suggestions? Leave a comment or PM me :)

I can always shift the send deadline to mid Jule if that is more suitable for everyone?

Oh, and sender's choice btw, so something to fiddle with in those small moments in between stuff.
