I have been having so much fun making ATC cards and Passbook Pal Stamps (registered trademark), and trading them in some Facebook groups. Is anyone else doing this. Interested in joining one of the groups let me know. I just love all things paper crafting, or my word for it, scrafting. I often struggle with time since I work roughly 12 hours a day five days a week. One of those twelve hours is walking on the treadmill and another hour is lunch/dinner. So creating these little works is often the only thing I can do in the few hours I have in the evening, even that is difficult for me as I have to go to bed so early in order to begin the next workday. These small projects have also benefited me in that I can use up all those bits and pieces of collection packs and left over stickers and ephemera, and use techniques I might not otherwise use in traditional 12 x 12 scraping. Anyway, thought I would inquire if anyone else here does this, knows of any other similar groups I might find for trading. Here are a couple of examples of Passbook Pal Stamps (they are 3 x 4 in size unlike the 2.5 x 3.5 traditional ATC cards) that I posted to the Facebook group today. Happy Scrafting ladies.

I swap ATC's locally and with on-line groups. Scrapbook.com and rubberstampchat.com both have swaps on their sites. I also go once a month to the local Ben Franklin store to swap. Mostly I just give them away to people I happen to meet, especially if they provided good service. I go to the VA for my Dr. appts and hand out about 10 or 15 each visit. Unfortunately I have none on hand now as I am making 2 sets of 20 greeting cards for 2 Expo swaps. I'm spending money to make the cards, $40 to swap them and I have lost count of how many hours I have worked and still working on them. But I'm having fun, and I get 40 different cards back so that counts.

Are they still a weird mixture of Harware & garden stuff & crafts? Lol I got a kick out of that everytime I went there.
