Normally I just post a new rubber stamp designer/site on Sundays but I found a WONDERFUL craft forum in the UK that I just have to share with you all....it's called Craft Swap. It is soooo cool! Nothing like anything I've found here in the US.
The forum administrator is Simon and he has started giving pod casts on various crafty subjects. There are 2 at the moment, one a bit over 10 minutes and the 2nd a little longer with more to come in the future. I listened to both immediately and can't wait to hear more! There is an accompanying blog with photos and written information covering various sections of the pod casts.
The forum it's self is packed with various topic areas such as General Chat (for more personal stuff); Crafty Chat; ATC Zone; Fat Book Zone; Scrapping -Stamping- Altering & More; Other Crafts - Knitting, Parchement, Inchies & Jewelry; Lists/Swaps/Challenges; Swap Zone; Misc. Chat - where you can go to moan and your pets can even chit chat!!
They have set up a photobucket account where everyone can post their creations. From the ATC & FatBook challenges to loads of other great stuff!
Now, you do have to sign up and become a forum member but I tell you, it's easy and worth it...this place is simply AWESOME!!

ReplyDeleteOkey dokey - I'm registered. (I had to get some American slang in here, what with all of the British accents! LOL)
ReplyDeleteHey, Roni. Can you recommend a site, group or place for reputable art swaps? I'd really love to do one and I just haven't found a place yet. This site sounds wonderful, but I don't know how it would work sending things inter-continentally. (That's too big to say this early here on the left coast. I need another cup of coffee. LOL)
Thanks for the recommendation.
