Description:

One of the things that I love in getting ready for Christmas is the smell of ginger and baking gingerbread. So let´s decorate an envie with the gingerbread-theme.

This is a collage/mixed media-swap. You can use hand-drawn or painted elements, but they can´t be the only media you are using. Other things you can include are collage-images, stamping, washi tape, decoupage, rub-ons etc.You may use even stickers, but they can´t be the main element either.

Decorate both sides of the envelope. The envelope size should be something between 6 x 9 inches as a "standard" for stateside swaps and 5 x 7 inches or legal size for the international swap partners. So nothing too tiny or huge, please! Use real stamp(s) for mailing, please!

Inside the envelope, put a nice Christmas card for your partner (can be store-bought or handmade) with the name of the swap and your username, that´s it!

The swap picture is made by me and it´s my envie for this swap!

If you have any questions about the swap, feel free to contact me! And most of all, have fun!

I know the US has just released some wonderful gingerbread house-stamps, so this is a good change to use them too ;)!

I don't think I can do mixed media art without some paint and hand drawn elements.!

Okay, I think you´re right bigmamabird! I´ll change the rules, so you can use painting/ hand-drawing as a part of your creation.
