- Originals only - no copies or prints (prints meaning duplicates of original art).
- Please only send work you are proud of.
- Please write on the back of each card who the card is for and group number, your AFA nickname
- Late cards and/or no cards may result in a neutral or negative iTrader from the hostess and each group member.

~ Easy/Regular – Generic themes where is it easy to think up a card; for example fairies, cats, dogs, flowers, etc. or less generic themes which require a little more thought or research but are not difficult to find a reference or collage images.
~ None of the themes will be challenging this time. Challenging – Themes that usually require research and printing out special images (for the collage/apc groups). Examples are characters from books or movies or perhaps obscure themes such as “Dogs in Victorian England.” They can also be themes that are difficult to interpret like music or a difficult poem. These can require a lot of thought and effort.
Please choose your theme within 48 hours (2 days) of signing up.
