Description:

This swap is not for the faint of heart. This is a big commitment!

You are creating 9 cards and sending them in the 9 pocket protector.

This swap will be contained to USA. Sorry due o postage.

Please feel free to host an international swap in this group.

Each card will be a different theme or artistic medium.

  1. stamped card

  2. collaged card

  3. Hand drawn/painted card

  4. Card with an animal, mammal NOT BIRD

  5. Card with a bird.

  6. vintage themed card

  7. card with wings, this includes birds, winged children, butterflies etc.

  8. card with book page

  9. black and white card

Now on the cards that have a specific theme, you can do in any medium. And the cards with a specific medium, you can do in any theme. Also, I am giving ample time to make, sign up and send. So even if you do make the cards and don't join, then at least you have cards for other swaps.

Now for the legal mumbo jumbo, LOL

a. each card must be sturdy

b. each card must be signed on the back and please remember to write on the back which card it is for.

c. no sticker slapping.

d. cards must be well made and atc size.

e. cards can be of a different shape, as long as they still meet atc height and width rules.

f. cards must be sent in a 9 pocket page protector.

g. cards must be sent safely and probably paying postage at the post off is the best bet.

h. cards that are chunky/lumpy should have some sort of padding so they do not damage other cards, or you can wrap that card separately and leave it out of the pocket just send in same envelope.

Yay! Thank you, I am hooked on these and am excited for something new and different! And I love challenges. I'm starting now. Thanks Candy for hosting this. :)

Looks awesome!! One note though, birds are animals so it's possible to get 2 bird cards. Did you mean mammal instead of animal?

Candyn29 04/11/2015 #

Yes, mammal I do not classify birds in with other animals

Candyn29 04/11/2015 #

you could possibly get a few birds, you could get a stamped one, a collaged one and a hand drawn one. But birds can not be acceptable in the animal card.

Candyn29 04/11/2015 #

it is up to you as the artist to take small creative license with some of the themes, mediums. If you feel the need to explain your choices when you send your swap then that's a good idea.

user2637 04/14/2015 #

Cool. Thanks for the clarification. A lot of people don't classify humans in with animals...but we are! :D

Candyn29 04/14/2015 #

@user2637 I wasn't, I didn't know we were, but animals mean the cute type or the scary type, I'm probably doing a cat or dog.

but you can take some creative licence just explain why
