Monochromatic Grey & Black Artist Trading Coins or Twinchies
If you’ve been in the previous monochrome swaps - please note that this one is due on the 14th instead of the 20th! I’ll be out of town from the 15-26 so this one is moved up a few days.
This is the 4th in a monochrome series. I will post a new color each month. I will continue to do both shapes since some are partial to coins but some love the variety. When you sign up please let me know if you are planning on doing coins, twinchies or both!
Upcoming Colors include:
Monochrome Brown Twinchies or Coins - November
Monochrome Orange Twinchies or Coins - December
Monochrome White & Silver Twinchies or Coins - January
Monochrome Yellow & Gold Twinchies or Coins - February
Monochrome Red Twinchies or Coins - March
This round your artwork needs to be mostly Grey & Black There can be minimal amounts of other colors.
Swap Requirements:
Coins need to have a diameter of 2.5 inches. If you do not have a 2.5 circle die or punch, please make sure you cut your circles neatly. They do not have to be perfect, but they should not look sloppy.
Twinchies need to be 2 inches by 2 inches square. Please make sure to cut your squares neatly.
Original artwork only
3:3 (hostess gifts are never a requirement, but would be treasured)
Good craftsmanship: send in something that you would be excited to see in your return envelope. I am going to do my best to swap effort for effort.
Please make sure your artwork is sturdy. They need to be thicker than just one sheet of card stock.
Each piece needs to be in its own protective sleeve.
Please include swap name, your username, real name, and location on the back of each piece.
Mailing:
US Participants – Please include a legible SASE.
International Participants - Please include a mailing label with your address clearly written or typed. I will provide an envelope for returns for international players. Please include a well concealed US dollar bill or US global forever stamp.
Please make sure to package your artwork securely. We don't want these wonderful works of art to get banged up in the mail.
If you are sending both coins and twinchies, please have the post office weigh your envelope to make sure you have enough postage (or mail them separately).
When you are ready to send in your pieces, please send me a private message for my mailing address (I did move last year so don’t use a saved address unless you verify). Also, please post in the thread when you send your envelope, so I can be on the lookout.
Make sure your pieces are mailed in time to be in my hands on or before the due date.
It is always fun and inspiring when artists share their artwork in the thread, so please do! Feel free to comment on coins or twinchies that you like in the threat. It makes my job as host easier if I can give you something that I know you’ll love.
When you receive your returns, please leave itrader for your hostess (that would be me) and "you rock" points to the players you received artwork from.

Here are my Twinchies - the Tim Holtz 'Pitch black' Alcohol ink I used to colour my stars seemed to split into other colours when mixed with the Glitter gel.

Yes, it is, thank you. Just feeling a little overwhelmed by getting back into the swing of things after being away from home for a month visiting family and friends. Thanks for your concern.
