Open theme USK tip-in swap due December 4th
Swap Due Date -4th December
Signup/withdraw date - none but please keep me informed.
Number of Cards - 2 for 2, 3 for 3 or 4 for 4.
Number of participants - Unlimited
It's been a while since I swapped any tip-ins and so thought I'd see if anyone else was up for a swap. Tip-ins are 3 3/4 inches wide by 5 3/4inches tall and vertically orientated. They are sized and orientated this way to fit into an urban sketchbook or USK for short. You can choose to put your tip-ins in a USK for display or alternatively display however you wish.
Here is a link for an urban sketchbook, note the pages are slightly bigger than actual tip-in size, this is to allow tip-ins to be affixed to the pages should you wish to do this.

Open theme but please avoid anything controversial eg- sexual or violence ect, and no religious themes thanks.
Hand drawn/handpainted subjects please, not abstract paintings.

2. Please pm me when you are ready for my address to send.
3. Please package your tip-ins carefully to ensure they reach me undamaged, and send in individual plastic sleeves or similar protective covering.
I will need a large return address label or piece of paper with your address on it, but I will supply my own envelopes.

International players please send either $2 USA for 1-2 tip-ins, or $3 for 2-4 tip-ins alternatively contact me to pay via paypal.
I will no longer be sending back returns at my own expense for players who forget to pay, or do not send enough for their returns.
