Comment: I received bookmarks (free ones you get from the library), 1 sheet of scrapbooking stickers (I don't do scrapbooking), 2 ATC sized papers, some sort of clown sequin thing that looked used, some small pieces of paper that I have no idea what they are used for but I'm guessing scrapbooking, which I don't do and it's mentioned a couple of time on my profile & a clothing tag that I guess is supposed to also be used as a bookmark. The swap states "..take some time to read your partner's profile and find out what he/she likes or dislikes". It also states, "Please do not send used items or "trash". A good guide will be to ask yourself if you will feel happy receiving it." I was very disappointed in this swap because I made a big effort to try and send things to my partners that they would like and I hoped that my swap partner would do the same for me. I feel like I received someone's minimal destash. / Update Sept. 24, 2012: Sorry for the late response to your comment, I just rechecked this now. If you would like to resend, I would appreciate that. Wishing you a nice weekend as well.
Response: Sorry you feel like you recd "trash". I make an effort to send nice things that I hope my partner can use or at least pass on. The clown sequin was not used...just old! I thought it was unique. As far as stickers you can alway put them on envelopes when sending out swaps. Scrap Papers can always be used in various projects. Perhaps I did not study your profile close enough and I'm sorry for that but I always check out a profile for hints. Sometimes we fail to meet others expectations. Again this was a "No-Spending Swap"...I did the best I could...or thought so! I have recd many swaps that were just ok but if I recd one I still gave a 5...just sayin. I could resend if you want...let me know if that would work. As you can see my ratings are good so even with this 3 I'm ok...I know I can never please everyone all the time. :) Have a great weekend!

Comment: Thank you for resending a card to replace the first card which was extremely undersized, but your resend was too small by 1/8" on each side as well. That makes almost 1.5 square inches total of art missing from my swap. :( Did you know you can get "ATC blanks" at stores like Michael's crafts? Those might help you with the sizing issues, if you just build/paint/etc on top of them. Hope that's helpful! :) /////Response to your response: The first card was 3/8" too small on one side and 1/8" on the other. That's a lot for such a small canvas. There aren't many rules for ATCs, but the size is what MAKES them ATCs, regardless of medium, so it should be accurate. [Here are images of the card](http://user2637.blogspot.com/2010/07/atc-too-small.html) with a ruler, showing that it is too small.
Response: I do not feel that my first card was EXTREMELY undersized. It was metal afterall and not easy to work with...I made sure I measured the 2nd card sent to you and I was on target as far as I'm concerned. I don't have extra money to buy pre-measured cards. I have received many cards from other swappers that I'm sure were not totally accurate, but I did not rate low, I simply enjoyed the artwork.
