A Writer's ATC Series - #1: The Pen

I was thinking about @poftoffel s Inspiration Card swap and thought that it would be nice to decorate my writing area with ATCs in a writer's theme for inspiration too, so this will be the first in a monthly series of ATCs that are writing themed!

July is month one and the theme for July is the pen. Create an ATC with a pen somewhere on it. ATCs may be hand-drawn, painted, or collaged. Put your best effort into it and create an ATC for your partner that you would love to receive yourself!

The Administrative Details:

• 1 ATC to 1 partner that features a pen in the design.

• You can start creating this now so it'll be ready to go when partners are assigned!

Future themes in this series will include:

• The Typewriter

• The muse

• The Pencil

• Coffee/Tea (whatever motivates you to keep writing sometimes)

• The Wastebasket (we're all probably a little too familiar with this essential tool of the trade)

And more as I think of them. :)

The Rules of the Road:

• Your ATC must be 2.5"x3.5" (64mmx89mm).

• It must be created using a sturdy backing such as cardstock, cereal boxes, or pre-cut ATC blanks that you can purchase.

• It must be sent in a protective sleeve or small envelope of some sort.

• Send on time.

• Rate promptly and fairly. You cannot rate down because you didn't like what you received if it meets the requirements of the swap otherwise.

Note: We will remove non-raters from the group if this becomes an issue (I don't expect that it will be). Hearts are at the discretion of the rater.

• I certainly don't expect anyone to flake in this swap but if that does happen, please let me know after you rate a 1 and I will angel. Please note that anyone who flakes will be immediately removed from this group
