This group is now closed and is an announcement only list for the "Making Art from Non_Cents" book publishing this year.
It has been an incredible three years so the decision did not come easy. I have loved all your art, inspiration, and support of each other over the time I have known you on and off list - and hope to remain in contact with you. Art for Cures [ www.willartforcures.org ] is going to be my focus, outside of my family and work life, as I feel there is a lot of good there to be done. I believe this will be a good change and I hope that you will all join me for the swaps there!
Art for Cures does art swaps (mostly paper arts but other mediums as well) and we auction the extras off for charity, hence "Part swap. All benefit." Just with the few charity auctions we have held as Art for Cures, plus what I have participated in, we have raised over 700.00 this year for various charities and I know that we will do a lot more than that in 2009. There are links to AFC below for those interested.
NON_CENTS THE MONTHLY ARTISTAMP ATC SWAP
The monthly "Artistamp ATC" swap that I created back in 2005 has come to an end, for now, and had a fabulous run. I will not be taking any new members here. The group is officially closed but I will leave it "interactive" until this Sunday night, the 4th. After that I will be making the group inactive but visible with this new information. Please feel free to contact me if you have questions; renmeleon at gmail dot com
I invite and encourage all of you to join Art for Cures and help us make a difference in 2009. I am finalizing a lot of projects with snail mail this weekend and have guidelines waiting in the wings for new projects as well as more auctions and a ton of Etsy listings.
