TWINCHIES Swap- VINTAGE, Due August 1st
Twinchies - theme Vintage - Due July 21st

2" x 2" Swap Due August 1st

For those of you who find the inchie swap a little too small or fiddly, how about this one, cards need to be 2" x 2" square, decorated and embellished - these are also a good size for using as card toppers.
There are a few restrictions on theme - (no porn, religious, political), any type of art medium or embellishments, whatever you prefer to use, just make it your best work! Please pop each card in a little envie (paper or plastic), to protect your work, and add your user name, date and where you are from on back of each card.
Please also enclose an addressed envelope for the returns - UK SASE, International SAE, or label, I will cover postage for these,
The swap is for 3 cards - maximum of 12 cards.
Please comment in thread, when cards are postal/received, and don't forget to leave reps for each other, and feedback on the swap would be appreciated!
Please pm me for my address ( if you don't have it already ), when you are ready to send Twinchies to me!

HAVE FUN!

The closing date for sign up is 1st July
This will be an on-time swap, so please make sure you get these posted in time, if International, allow 7-10 days to get from abroad to UK!
