[Ria]

TWINCHIES - With an Inchie Due August 14th CLOSED - ALL CARDS RECEIVED!!!!!!!!! THANX TO YOU ALL!

2" x 2" Swap Due August 14th
Due Date: 14th August
Sign up/withdraw by: 26th July
Number of Cards: 3 for 3 , 6 for 6 , 9 for 9, Maximum 9

Number of Players: 20

Theme- Twinchie with an Inchie

This is an open theme, as long as each Twinchie sent in - has an appropriate inchie attached!


Cards need to be 2" x 2" square, made from firm card, NOT paper, 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
All types of art medium welcome - whatever you prefer to use, just please make it your best work!!!!

Any embellishments need to be well secured!

Please pop cards 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 or label for the returns - UK SASE, International SAE, or label - I will cover postage for these.
The swap is for 3 cards - maximum of 9 ( I have reduced limit as if there are insufficient players, it can be difficult to swap out enough cards to everyone)

Please comment in thread, when cards are postal/received, and when you receive your returns, don't forget to leave reps for each other, Feedback on the swap would also be appreciated!
Please pm me for my address ( if you don't have it already ), when you are ready to send Twinchies to me!

The closing date for sign up / Cancellation is 26th July
This will be an on-time swap, so please make sure you get these posted in time, if International, allow 7-10 days minimum to get from abroad to UK!

HAVE FUN!
