Due Date: November 5th, 2010
Sign-up by: October 27th
Withdraw by: October 29th, 2010 - or sooner if you know so players on the waiting list have the opportunity to play.
Number of ATC's: 3 for 3
Number of Participants: 30
This swap is all about ATCs with BUTTONS!
One or many,
Whatever you like,
As long as your buttons,
Are on there real tight!
Ideas: Use a single large or fancy button as the focus of the card, use buttons as accents to other objects (like a button in the center of a flower), use multiple tiny buttons as embellishments or trim, or use a specialty button in a scenery type card. You get the idea - as long as there is a button ~ it’s good!
Technique: Collage / Mixed Medium / Any & All Styles are welcome as long as your ATCs include at least one BUTTON and are original works.
Please feel free to combine elements and techniques such as painting,drawing, stamping, embossing, paper piecing, acrylic overlays, stitching, mini quilting, whatever you enjoy.
Points to remember:
* ATCs must be 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 and please place your card in a plastic sleeve after
all glue, glitter, ink or paint is completely dry.
* This will be a 3 for 3 swap. Extra cards for the host are not necessary but of
course are always welcome and definitely enjoyed and appreciated.
* Please include your name, swap name and where you currently live on the back
of your card.
Mailing ~
U.S. Players: Please send a label with your name and address - I will provide the envelope and either 1 - 64 cent stamp or 61 cents in postage stamps depending how heavy your cards are.
International Players:: Need only to send your ATCs and a label with your address - I will cover the return postage. There is no limit on international players.
Mailing tip: Because the cards have a heavier than normal embellishment they tend to slide around in the envelope and can easily leave strange imprints on other cards - also if the cards shift around at the post office they come postage due on my end.
Please mail your cards in a business size envelope (the long ones) take an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of cardstock fold it in thirds and tape your cards to that - you will have to slightly overlap them. Using this technique will keep your cards in place and reduce the chances of damage in route.
For even better mailing tips please check out this thread - it has a lot of wonderful info.
