Description:

I'm going to do 9 swaps of different colors. For those of us who save our ATC's in 9 slot card holders in notebooks, this will look good to have a whole page of altered text ATC's.

What is an altered text ATC? Click here for samples. It's quite simple and can be fun trying to come up with a sentence or two that makes sense!!! Not all will make sense though....

Here are the rules:

Make a standard size ATC (2.5x3.5") and use an actual book page as your backgound.

Attach a sturdy piece of cardboard on the back for stability.

It's nice to finish the back of the ATC with a piece of nice paper. Don't forget to put your swap info on the back.

Outline your phrase, sentence, etc. as the sample picture suggests.

After outlining your words, then cover the rest of the ATC with the color PINK using the medium of your choice...can be inks, paints, markers, pencils, etc.

You can finish it using embellishments of your choice or leave it plain (your choice).

You must have a 4.8 or above rating....You must have 8 recently completed and rated swaps in the last 3 months....No 1's or 3's in the last 3 months....

Be sure to get your swaps out on time! Please don’t sign up if you can’t meet the qualifications and the deadlines…your partner is depending on you to follow through!

If you want to make them ahead...here's the order of the colors we'll be doing: Red - Blue - Green - Silver/Gray - Purple - Pink - Yellow - Brown - Black

Have fun and happy swapping!

the text have to be in English or it may be in Italian?

@Bianca75 The text can be any language!

Does the text need to make sense or just showing some of e text?

I try to make a sentence out of the text but I know that can be hard. I know that some people don't do it that way, they just outline some of the words. One ATC I rec'd was interesting....she circled several words and when I unscrambled them they made a complete sentence!

Haven't heard of these types before. Interesting!

Beware .......... whoever my partner is!

This is my first try at altered text. I think I did it right. Now to decorate it.

Had fun overthinking the purple one... Just wondering if you will be having a catch up at the end for those of us who MISSED one or more of the colors?? Love the idea of the scrambled sentence, too.

@Karen2013 .......I had the same question. I just started with this swap. Any make up swaps?

Also, if it's in another language, can the person please translate it on a piece of paper so we know what it says?
