Ocean/Sunset ATCs: Sabine Busch

Sabine Busch's envelope came in the other day, thank you for your patience, Sabine! It only took 1 week for it to get here from Germany and I am convinced it is because how she packaged it . . . Having been out of hosting for a while,  I am learning from her, the best way how to do this. To start with, she used a plain business size envelope. She put her ATCs is see-through sleeves, but she taped 3 ATCs in a row together with washi tape, which is easily removed. She had 2 rows of three ATCs that nicely fit flatly into the envelope! Let me show you.


Below I am showing you both "rows" of ATCs held in place 
with the washi tape so they don't move around in the envelope.
One row is lifted up to show you the washi tape on the back of the 2nd row!
This is just a helpful idea to save space, postage and time.
The simple flat envelopes will get to me quicker than padded ones. 


 Sabine included a postcard for me to that was a delight to receive
& also protected the ATCs.

Here is a close up of one of her wonderful ATCs!

Below are all 6 that she made -really fantastic! Sabine chose to do ALL Ocean colors -great!




Please do not delay, especially if you are overseas . . . April 23rd is the last day I can receive for this swap. I found 3 more sets of ATCs this afternoon from Marion Bockelmann, Cynthia Jones & Barbara DeLisle in my mailbox, yeeha! I will scan them & upload them soon - tomorrow is a pretty busy day for me so if I don't get to them tomorrow, I will aim for accomplishing that on Friday!
