Ongoing ATC Swap 2026 Gallery & Discussion

I got not one ATC but 2… 2.5? from @EclecticDreamer !

Theme, I believe, was things that make you happy.




The hearts are on the back of the tree card (with the words of The Princess Bride in the backround). And I think the tree is magnificent!!! Thank you!!

Ahhhh I just received from @LindyBlues for a few prompts: textures, layers, collages, quote.

The sweetest quote!! And the sweetest card. I’m so touched, thank you @LindyBlues !:face_holding_back_tears:

So glad you liked it :heart::smiling_face::heart:

I received a wonderful “favorite place to relax” ATC from @Panda today. Canada post is FAST.

I absolutely love it. Thank you so much!

It also includes sunshine so that’s 2 prompts in one card. I can totally relate why that’s your favorite place to relax. I cannot wait for the weather to get warmer.

Yay!! So glad everything arrived safely! I had so much fun making them!

I mailed both at the same time.. one destination was 2.5 hours drive away and the other destination 14 hour flight away and they arrived almost at the same time! :exploding_head:

I think I need more ATC’s in my life… ohhhh! And side note I just remembered I told my friend I’d send her pics of my practice pine trees from Feb ATC. I was wracking my brain half the night trying to remember what i was supposed to photograph (noted here so I see it in the morning)

I wasn’t going to participate in the March ATC swap, but have an overwhelming urge to make small art.

I received 2 ATCs from @thanate on Friday!

For my happy face theme:

I especially love the “smiley asleep face” with the notes :slight_smile:

Thank you!

Do we have to formally send an email to organizer every month we wish to participate? Or if we get approved once (Feb) are we considered “in” on future ongoing ATC swaps?

I’ve always submitted the questionnaire each time (technically each month is a new, distinct swap). I believe that we only have to “check in in the discussion thread” once per year, though.

That’s right– new questionnaire for each month/swap thread, but if you’ve already found the gallery thread I assume you’ll know where it is still. :grin:

(and sorry for the delay approving/updating things– I was offline with a headache for a couple days; my sinuses are Not dealing well with spring pollen this year.)

I received from @LindyBlues today. A fun ATC for my “nature” theme and some cute stickers:


I really like the layered design. Thank you so much.

I’m really happy I finally joined this swap. It’s so much fun to continuously create and send. I just hope my cards won’t take too long to arrive.

Ok, new month! And the mail (with the possible exception of between the US & Germany) seems to be mostly back on track. Who wants to swap?

  • More ATCs are always better!!
  • I think I’d be up for a claim.
  • Aaah, all the things, maybe some other time
  • April Fish! :fish:

I’m glad to see the swap is continuing through April. I hope to join when my newby probation month is up. :grinning_face: In the meantime, I love seeing everyone’s artwork.

@MamaRhi this ATC is so clever!

I think I will wait a bit before sending my Q for April. I want to see how long the international letters take at the moment.
