Due Date – May 4, 2018
Sign up - Sign ups are now closed!
Withdraw – None, once signed up with a theme you’re in, so PLEASE be sure you want to play!
(Withdrawal or no cards will receive a negative iTrader.)
Number of Cards - 4 cards for one group or 8 if you're playing in two groups
Number of participants - 5 groups of 5 players
Mid February Pick-a-Theme (PAT)
To play you must have:
• an iTrader rating of +15
• no negatives within the last 6 months
• no neutrals within the last 3 months
• NO EXCEPTIONS
PLEASE READ ALL THE DIRECTIONS BEFORE YOU SIGN UP
DO NOT over commit yourself. You may sign up for a maximum of 2 groups. Once you commit to a group, other players begin working on your card, so for this reason you cannot withdraw from a PAT. Late cards and/or no cards will receive negative iTraders from each group member and your host.
I live in Florida – plan your mail time accordingly.
General Information:
• This swap contains 5 groups of 5 members
• Signups will end when all spots are filled
• Pick a group of preferred media then pick a theme
• Please have a theme chosen within two days of signing up or you'll lose your spot in the group
• You must be willing to work on all the other themes in your group
• Make a card for each player in your group in their chosen theme (always ask if you're not sure!)
• Send quality cards you are proud of and would want to receive yourself
• Cards must be sturdy
• When you have finished your cards, send me a private message for my address
• Your cards must be in my hands on or before May 4, 2018
• You will receive a card of your chosen theme in return from each member of your group
Card information:
• Cards must be standard ATC size, 2.5” x 3.5”, on sturdy paper, cardstock or chipboard

• Each card should be mailed in a protective plastic sleeve
• On the back of all your cards please put the following information:

Please post your cards to the thread for all to enjoy.
Mailing information:
Per PAT rules, all cards must be mailed to the host. Please do not ask to mail to players directly for whatever reason as it is not allowed and will result in a negative iTrader.
I will provide envelopes. Please send me a large address label and as much postage as it cost you to send your envelope to me.
Theme information:
EASY/REGULAR THEMES:
Generic themes that are easy to think up for a card. For example: fairies; cats; dogs; flowers; etc.
Less generic themes which require a little more thought or research but are not difficult to find a reference or collage images. Examples include: flying pigs with hats, red poppies, whimsical houses, nature fairies, etc. (Real people or characters in books or movies are not regular themes!)
There will be no Advanced/Challenging Themes for this swap.
Remember that for PATs, when you get your returns, give all your fellow group members and the hostess (me) iTraders!
