Description:

I love the Moomins (by Tove Jansson). If you have not read these wonderful children's (and child-at-heart adult, because adults love them too) books, then here is your introduction. This swap series will be of ATCs for each Moomin character.

Now is Snufkin. He is Moomintroll's best friend, living in Moominvalley in the spring and summer, but leaving for warmer climates down south every winter. He is the son of the elder Mymble and the Joxter, and is half-brother to the Mymble's daughter and Pikku Myy. Snufkin wears old green clothes and a wide brimmed hat he's had since birth. He lives in a tent, smokes a pipe, and plays the harmonica. Snufkin also has a great dislike for authority figures such as the Park Keeper, and the many regulation signs and fences he puts up, and as such is often thought of as an anarchist. At one point he sabotages the Park Keeper by planting Hattifatteners in his garden, causing them to grow and drive him out. He has a great hatred for all symbols of private property, even losing his temper with the Hemulen after the latter attempts to put up a sign declaring "Moominvalley". Snufkin prefers freely-growing foliage to fenced-in lawns. Snufkin keeps as few worldly possessions as possible, seeing them as a burden, and being happier keeping the memory of a thing than the thing itself.

One ATC for one partner. Swap open to all. If necessary I will angel, though I hope it will not be necessary.

Usual ATC dimensions: 2.5" X 3.5" or 64 X 89 mm, on appropriate sturdy at least 100# paper.

I'll be in Nicaragua on the 16th, the swap deadline, so internet connection definitely will be spotty. Please have patience, I'll assign partners as soon as I can get a connection there.
