Vintage children’s books – HD/HP & Mixed Media ATCs - Due 5th October

Well today is the day. I haven't received any communication or cards from annaleda, and there are none that fit the theme in the gallery, so I will swap out today. I am moving the thread to Active Swaps. I will let you know when I mail the returns. Fabulous lot of cards. Thanks everyone.
 
The boys have alll been ill and now me. I have not got the cards in the mail. Huge apologies Rae
 
Just to let you know the cards went off today. I hope you all enjoy your returns. Please post and let me know you got them OK. Mailing times vary so much. I have a very enviable collection of these lovely little cards now. Thank you all for playing.
 
The comic ones were from londonont1, perhaps she can enlighten you. I didn't recognise them, but then I wouldn't being a Brit. Would you believe the Velveteen Rabbit was completely new to me? Not sure who wrote it. It must be famous, there were several versions of it, all beautiful.
 
I got my cards a few days ago but forgot to leave reps. Thanks to fairydust , donnacr and londonont1 for you wonderful art work. And huge thanks to ann_stebbing for hosting!

I received my cards and want to say that I absolutely loved, loved, loved this swap!!!

Thanks to Ann for hosting the swap.

Thanks to Alrice46, Ann, and LondonOnt1 for the lovely cards. I love Winnie the Pooh (Alrice46), have a collection of Beatrix Potter books including Jeremy Fisher (Ann), and used to have a whole collection of comic books until my mom through them out, now I have a few (Londonont1). I love each of these cards.

Nearly all the cards have arrived, just 3 more to go. Let me know when you get them so that I can archive the swap. Thank you all so much for playing. I really enjoyed hosting this swap. I had an e-mail from Londonont1 saying she couldn't get scraps in Canada. I sent her a link to the place I got mine from years ago. I would be surprised if they didn't send internationally.

All cards have now been received. Thank you all so much for playing. Check out my new swaps. I'd love to see more of your artwork.
