Description:

It's that time of year again, for our annual Monster Mania Mail Art Series. Some of our other swaps will be put on hold, so I can offer this Monster series. It's one of my favorite series each year.

This week, please make one mail art item for your one partner, that features a La Catrina or Day of the Dead inspired ATC.

You can pick and choose your favorites or sign up for all of them. I couldn't decide on just a couple monsters, so I decided to offer many. If there is an Or in the subject theme, then just pick the one you want to make.

In this swap, make your one partner, 1 Mail Art piece (sender's choice of mail art: not limited to an ATC, Postcard, Inkbox Card, Mini Zine-Original not photocopied, Decorated Envelope with a tuck in, 2 ATC coins, Tag, Altered File Folder, etc) that is inspired by the Day of the Dead or La Catrina.

This is sender's choice so feel free to work ahead.

Any art mediums are acceptable, this means no stickers please. Sticky embellishments are okay. Postcards can be any size or shape, and are preferred to be mailed Naked, however you may choose to mail in an envelope or sleeve. I know weather, covid concerns, and unpredictable mail service has some people wanting to mail in an envelope. If you have a preference, please list it on your profile. Things mailed in an envelope should be mailed in some sort of decorated envelope. ATC's are standard 2.5 x 3.5 inches, and can be oriented in either direction. Please include your artist info on your work.

Please include your name and the name of the swap so that you can get rated.

Be sure to rate your partner when you get your mail art item.

Happy Swapping!
