Description: | |
For this swap, you will create one handmade postcard and mail it naked (stamped & written on, not in an envelope) to your partner. We will be using Tim Holtz supplies to create our postcards. You can use anything in the Tim Holtz line (distress mediums such as inks and paints, ephemera, stencils, rubber stamps, stickers, cardstock or printed paper, etc.) and he has a ton of supplies to choose from! You may use more than just Tim Holtz products (for example, if you use Mod Podge or regular acrylic paint that's fine) but please make Tim Holtz supplies your main focus. A good ratio would be 80% Tim Holtz, 20% not. Make sure your base for your postcard is sturdy enough to withstand the travel through the mail. Heavy cardstock or even thin chipboard would be perfect. If you want to, you could even use a store bought postcard as your base as long as you make sure every bit of the picture side is altered as well as any unwanted words on the back of the card are covered. Have fun with this swap! Theme is sender's choice. Halloween theme is acceptable since we're so close to it now, but please avoid any other holiday themes or religious themes. No sticker slapping, please do your best work. I will angel if necessary. No recent or unexplained 1's or 3's. |
