Hi Ladies, I just wonder if you are all able to give us an up-date on where you are at with your ATC cards?
I have received  Sandra's cards and Robyn has hers on the way as does Kathy. Please can you other ladies leave a quick note in the comments box just to let us know if you have or have not finished yet. Thanks so much.

This is what you need to do now...Create nine ATC cards, remember to keep to the red/black colour combo and include anything at all that relates to Christchurch in some way. This can be pre earthquake, after earthquake, or something related to the quake, the choice is yours!

Please can you send your ATC's to me (Sonya) at 5 K RD Oamaru, p/c 9494

Include a stamped self addressed envelope, I will use these to send your full set of ATC cards back to you.

I have a huge collection of ATC's, acquired during several years of 'swaps'.Below are just a few of my favorites., to help inspire you!

Framed Girl is by Carol Noakes

Cup cakes, by Sandra Ashton

Dream is by Amanda

We hope you enjoy creating your ATC's.

• I was thinking it would be nice to do an ATC swap about chch and the quake,it could be anything,it could be from before the quake,about it or after it,or just something special about chch.It would be nice to remember this day and all those that were effected or involved one way or the other. The criteria is you must use RED AND BLACK only Just put your name in the comments window and i will add you
