Great additions to the gallery.
I’ve finally signed up for this month!
I love the Clue characters. They’re adorable.
I received from @thanate , and before I even opened the envelope, I saw that there was a Strega Nona stamp, which was ALSO one of my themes!!! It made me so happy. But then…I opened the envelope.
AND I SCREECHED! It is an amazing interpretation of Gritty, my namesake, but also…IT IS INTERACTIVE!!! I wish so much that I could attach a little video of it, but his eyes spin when I pull his beard down!
Thank you @thanate , I am ASTOUNDED!!!

This is so cool!!!
I received 2 ATCs today!!!
First, from @whatthepuck for my Everyday Holidays theme, a cute valentine’s day ATC. I love the bright colours and the seal.
And from @TruGritty, this delicious mango for my fruit theme, for which she carved a stamp! Plus, it’s labelled in Portuguese! 
It came in a great card full of extra fruit 
, plus cute fruit stickers. I love the things you do with layers

Holy yikes the year is already getting away from me! I’m not sure it’s worth signing up for the remaining fees days of February, so I’ll hopefully see you all next round!

I received a really Amazing ATC from Chameleonhound for my “Enchanted Forest” theme!! It’s beautiful and has so many dimensional layers 
!!
She also sent a ton of extras… including a fortune telling fish (I haven’t seen one of those in I don’t know how long)!
Thank you so much!!! 
(Don’t know why that picture is sideways…I tried 5 times…it came out sideways every time, and didn’t give me the option to rotate it

I recd a beautiful collage whale from @LindyBlues !
I love the printed paper for the underside. It really makes a lovely contrast against the blue of its skin.
Love it! Thank you again for a fun addition to my collection.

I received from @chameleonhound this lovely literal interpretation of the popular idiom “spill the beans.”
The lighting in my house is very poor and does not do the beautiful artwork justice. The colours are much more vivid in person.
I love the colours and variety of beans.
I was also spoiled with lots of extras, and I love that they came in seed packets to tie in with the gardening theme.
Thank you

Oh my gosh. I haven’t participated in an ATC swap since before 2020, back in the Craftster days, so seeing all of this is just wonderful. I thought, if it’s okay, for old time’s sake, while I’m still trying to reach my post quota, I wanted to share some old ATCs from my collection. I found my binder the other day and remembered how much joy the swaps brought me, and that lead me here! Some people might even recognize their own art!
Can’t wait to start commenting on all the amazing things I’m seeing in the gallery. Brings back great memories.

Very cool-- I definitely see some familiar styles here! So are you planning to join us next month?

Absolutely! Specifically, the ATC swap was always my favorite. It’s so cheap and immediately satisfying. I had made an account years ago, but left intimidated because the formatting of the site was so different. Then I realized, what am I doing? I can figure this out. And that cute little discobot was so helpful!

I got two lovely ATCs from the February swap today!
From @TruGritty for Year of the Snake:
This one is for the green wood fire snake of 2025, and the paper gives it a lovely texture! This also has prismacolors, alcohol inks, and marker. It came in a lovely collage card as well:
From @LindyBlues for my animal puns, a seal of approval! Hehehe And some extra stickers too! I had to immediately give the pusheen and banjo frog to my partner who adores them.
Thank you both!
