Hosted by Cathy C.

It’s time for our  4th (almost annual) My Stuff/ Your Stuff Swap!! How this swap started; an excerpt from our first one: "One of the benefits of hosting swaps is all the wonderful ephemera that the  participants send along with their art. I always get inspired because it makes me think outside of my supply world and the things I usually am drawn to. Some of my favorite pieces have been made almost entirely from someone else's supplies." I still feel the same way and since this has always been a favorite within Paper Traders, let’s do it again.

Sign - up by Feb. 15th. I will assign everyone a partner randomly and post it  on Feb. 16th.
By March 1st, mail your partner a #9 or #10 size envelope of supplies and ephemera. Don't buy anything special, just raid your stash of nice quality ephemera  (nothing too bulky, to keep postage costs low).

Make your two ATC’s using your partners supplies. Yes, you can incorporate a little of your own supplies in, but really try to use your partners supplies to keep the spirit of the swap.

Mail-out your two ATC’s to your partner by March 30th.

International members welcome. Hope you will all join us in this Paper Traders tradition!
