Well I had a lovely write up but swap-bot ate it...so here we go again...

Hello my Zen friends,

My idea is coming from when I have made collages, I've taken stuff I've found, trash, things I've collected, stuff on my desk..anything, and I've made some of my favorite ATC's from this. The chaos becomes a sort of zen activity as I figure out how to put it all together, much like someone putting a puzzle together finds some peace for a few moments or hours.

So, for this swap we'll make 1 collage ATC for our partner out of "stuff" we find, own, collect, etc. The process is the zen part of it, and practicing "mindfulness" as we make it might bring us some peace for a bit. Mindfulness is a technique I've learned to quiet my mind and body, when you do one thing and one thing only. No tv, no music, no computer - just make the ATC and focus on how things fit together.

Normal ATC size 2.5 x3.5 inches - should fit into a sleeve. Use a sturdy backing, and glue the "stuff" down really well.
