  Call is Closed
I am no longer accepting ATCs for swap. You may still send ATCs and I will post them on this blog, but it is not definite that I will send an ATC back to you. I apologize.

I started this blog one year ago. At that time, I was unemployed - taking time off after returning from Iraq. A few months later, I decided to go back to work. That is when I started falling behind in returning ATCs to individuals that sent ATCs to me. To make matters worse, my call somehow made it into a magazine I never read before called, "Rubber Stamp Madness." That ad stayed in the magazine for a few issues, which happened to be during the time we were short on people at work and I was getting a lot of overtime. So I got even more responses and got farther behind.

One of the other problems I was having, was my want to return ATCs of similar quality of what I received. Some of the art cards I got were absolutely beautiful. I didn't think my cards were as good as what I was receiving, so I felt guilty.

I still owe several people ATCs and I will still send them out. I know some people have gotten a little upset at the amount of time it took for me to return cards. I apologize for that.

For the last month, I have been devoting a lot of my spare time to creating art on a larger scale for an International Art Show. I am almost finished with those pieces and will try to find some time to get more ATCs completed. I have a half dozen ATCs that I did a few months ago, so those will be going out soon, as well.

I will probably still do ATCs occasionally, but I'll stick mainly to mail art from now on.

Thank you to everyone that has participated in my call over the last year!!

  From Renee Zappa
I received two ATC from Renee Zappa a few months ago titled, "Beads" and "Spring Flowers". "Spring Flowers" is an ATC that can be transformed, which is shown in the third picture below.

My call for ATCs has been closed. You may still send ATCs and I will post them on here, but I may not be able to send any ATCs back to you. All ATCs received and going out will be documented here. Feel free to email me at snailmailart@yahoo.com if you have any questions.
