Happy New Year! I wish the best of luck to everyone in this new year!

I feel bad when it comes to ATCs, though. I still owe several individuals ATCs. Some people have been waiting for over a year. I have apologized in previous posts and I will apologize again - I'm sorry. I have not have any motivation to create unique ATCs. As a matter of fact, my mail art and traditional art practices have taken a back seat to other activities and hobbies also. Maybe soon.  ¶ 8:38 PM 3 comments

  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!!  ¶ 1:14 PM 2 comments

  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.

  I'm Back... I got knocked offline last week, but I am now back online. I've got some new ATCs to post. However, I need to get ready for work right now, so there should be something posted tomorrow. Thanks!  ¶ 2:15 PM 0 comments
