Number of participants - Unlimited (Please ask to be signed up here on the thread, not via Direct Message)
Medium:Open (hd/hp, collage, mixed media
Are you a collector? It is jokingly referred to as a disease or addiction by those “in the know”. I admit, I am one of them! My personal collections have tended to be very “girly” - swan figurines, cameo brooches, ladies’ powder compacts, etc. over a few decades. It is said that if you have 3 or more of an item, it can be considered a “collection”. It is just a very enticing hobby that one can get really passionate about.
This swap is “Open Media”, so you can illustrate your collections via hand-drawn images, collage, or mixed media. Embellishments that are not too bulky for the postal machines are welcome. In addition to making your cards, you are also welcome to post pictures of your actual collections, if you like. Also welcome would be stories and experiences regarding your collecting adventures. We are NOT COUNTING our ATC collections here - that would be too easy! Some card examples I made are included below. Do join in this swap, and we can commiserate (or rejoice) together!
CARDS and MAILING:
- Write username, real name, and swap title on the back of each 2 1/2 x 3 1/2” card.
- Ask for my mailing address via “direct message” when ready to mail (still at N. 146th Lane).
- An extra “host card” is never necessary (but always appreciated).
- Please place each card in a plastic sleeve.
- If taping cards together to travel safely, please use easy-release tape (Painters or Washi).
- Please include a large address label (the PO does not like the little return address stickers) and one Forever stamp. I will provide envelopes.
- INTERNATIONAL Players, please enclose your address label plus one Global Forever stamp or a $1 bill. I will provide envelopes.
- Remember to leave your appreciation (via Reps, or on this thread), to fellow swappers after receiving returns. Many swappers like to know who got their cards.
- Please leave Feedback for me (host), which tells me your cards have been received. Remember, Feedback is not given to fellow swappers - Reps are.
