Swap Due Date - October 27
postage for non-Australians - September 29
I live in Australia - mail will NOT reach me quickly! I suggest you allow at least 4 weeks
Number of Cards - 3:3 (made using tangles starting with that letter - 1 card using 'M' tangles, 1 card using 'N' tangles and 1 card using 'O' tangles)
Number of participants - unlimited
Medium - any but the zentangles need to be identifiable so I recommend pens and/or pencils

I am asking for NAMED TANGLES to be used on your cards, NOT just any doodle. For an easy reference go to Tanglepatterns.com and click on the letter at the top of the page. This resource has been growing since 2009 so you will find many choices for every letter of the alphabet.
Please make sure to list the tangles you have used on the back of each card.

Feel free to fill just the letter of the alphabet (and add a little background tangle) IMG_4160.jpg (Marasu, Meo) OR fill in the background around the letter IMG_4161.jpg (Nina, Nipa, Nanalee) OR add a little colour to your card IMG_4162.jpg(Oke) OR any combination of these.

Future swaps so you can plan ahead (all due on the 27th)
November - p, q, r December - s, t, u January '25 - v, w, x February - y, z, numbers

Post to the thread to sign up or you can't get fun Rep comments.

PM me for my address when you are ready to mail - if you have an address in Robina I am still there. I am an on-time host so please take note of the suggested mail date at the top of the thread.

Postage
Australian players
: please include a $1.50 stamp
International players: please include a well-hidden US $2 OR a Global Forever stamp.

ALL players please include a LARGE address label (at least 2" x2"). I will provide envelopes.

1) Do your best work - I plan to swap effort-for-effort as much as I can.
2) Clearly write your USERNAME and the SWAP NAME on the back of all your cards (so you can get Rep comments) AND on the back of your mailing envelope. I am running a few swaps and do not want to put you with the wrong returns.
3) Please mail early to allow time to reach Australia.
4) An extra card for the swap Host is greatly appreciated but is not required.
5) I will give Feedback when I receive your cards and update this post. In return I encourage you to give Host Feedback when you receive your returns, and Rep comments to the artists whose cards you receive. After all, knowing where your cards went is half the fun, I think.

jo.on.the.go - I have mentioned elsewhere that my mail seems to be coming in batches. I would give your cards till the end of the week to arrive then, unfortunately, I would consider remaking them.

welcome back Maxtastic - gorgeous cards, I will tell you when they arrive
 
jo.on.the.go - your cards arrived in today's batch of cards. phew!! It is postmarked as having reached Sydney (where all our international mail goes) 2 days ago

mybrokenart - thanks for showing your cards and making a comment so you can get Rep comments
 
welcome to this swap and to the site tall70.
remember that you are not just making a card with doodles you are using proper, named tangles as listed on Tangle patterns.com - just click on the letter of the alphabet you want to use in the list at the top of every page and you will find lots of tangles from which to choose.

if you have any questions about this swap, or the site in general, feel free to either ask in this thread or send me a message - there are no silly questions.
 
welcome to all our returning players and to the new ones - remember that you need to use NAMED tangles on your cards and list the tangles on the back

If you have any questions - about this swap or the site in general, please feel free to either ask in the thread or send me a message. If you are unsure about your cards please show them here and we can tell you if they are what is required or not.

For those players who have mailed - I will tell you when your cards arrive (all the ones shown above are gorgeous and I can't wait to see them in real life)
