Crafting - Deco ATC's and a new blog

I'm still really enjoying Swap-bot and trading ATC cards. So thought I would give you an update of the two I made this week. They have been sent across the world to America, Netherlands, Canada and Switzerland!

These deco cards were for a 'Stamp It' ATC swap and I used supplies I had received in a previous craft swap to make them

These 2 were for a 'Where you Live' ATC swap. I used cut up postcards, a graze box, stickers and my Dynamo printer.

Anyone else into making ATC's or just swapping snail mail? I am always on the hunt for new postcard pen pals, so if anyone is interested in swapping some PC's or snail mail just leave me a comment or drop me an email.

Oh and I have got a new blog, specifically for crafting. It's called Daily Craft Inspiration and it does what it says on the tin. I am always finding great craft projects thanks to all the online hopping I do and the amazing Pintrest, so I decided to put them all in one place on a new quick daily post blog. Please check it out, follow if you like and let me know what you think. I hope I can inspire some people into crafting some more.

Monday Mail and ATC's - 17th December

It's Monday again! That means we are another week closer to Christmas, it's like 8 sleeps away now! Excited yet? Anyway as Christmas is almost here I have been swapping Christmas Postcards over on Swap-bot. So here are my lovely nice xmas post cards that I have received over the last 2 weeks! These have come from all over the globe, and add some great festive fun to my ever expanding Postcard Collection.

I've also been having lots of fun swapping ATC's again.

 This amazing creation was part on an 'All Black' ATC swap I took part in, where you could only use things which were completely black on your card. I cannot believe how amazing this card I received was.

 I also received these cards. The left and bottom are part of a 'Crafty ATC - Using Beads Swap', the top is from a 'My Favourite Film Swap' and the right is a 'Crafty ATC - Using Sparkles Swap'

And these are all the other fun goodies I received with my ATC's - going to have to put some of them to good use!

Now here are the ATC I created and have been sending out as swaps!

The above 2 are my 'All Black' creations.

 The above 3 are all 'Crafty ATC - Using Beads Swaps'. But I made each to the liking of my swap partner.

These 2 are 'My Favourite Film' ATC's for 'The Devil Wears Prada'!

Have you received any fun mail recently? If you want a new penpal or fancy swapping with me just drop me an email.

Monday Mail and ATC's - 19th November

Been lucky enough to have some great mail again this week. They are all from swaps over on Swap-bot! If you love snail mail or being creative you should join up. It is such fun and I have made some great penpal friends already. 

This time I joined a 'green christmas postcard' swap, where you recycle old christmas cards into postcards by cutting the fronts off. Here the cards I have received as part of this swap so far.

Just a quick look at where they are all coming from

Starting with the dog card going clockwise.

1. Nebraska 2. South Georgia 3.Nottingham, UK 4. Uk again cant see where 5. Arizona 

I also hosted another ATC swap for sparkly items and joined a few others. These are what I have received so far.

These 3 are: 1. Canada 2. Washington and 3. Utah

I also got these from other swaps.

1. Nebraska and 2. California obviously 

 I also got all this fun crafty stuff with my ATC's

These are 3 of the ATC's I have sent out this week for the 'Sparkly' swap

Anyone else in ATC's or snail mail? I'd love to see you collections or what you got in the post this week too!

Monday Mail - 24th September

I think I told you a few weeks ago that I had recently signed up to Swap-bot. A snail mail site where you can join different types of swaps, to exchange mail with people all over the world. I love snail mail and pen pals. I have 5 regular penpals already (who are all bloggers) but I've always got room for more! and I like to get random mail too.

So this site has been lots of fun so far. This is just some of the cards I've received in the last few weeks. Lots of postcards from all around the world!

I love seeing fun tourist spots from other parts of the world, and I love to learn about other peoples lives and cultures. Plus I love to write back to people and tell them about my life and Wales.

If you'd like to send me a post card or letter, just drop me a comment with your email address, or email me (address in left side bar) and I'll send you my home address.

Anyone else love snail mail? Have you got any pen pals?
