Description:

Some members have mentioned in the forum they would like to see an EA Poe swap for the group so here is my offering:

Ok, you can't get any darker than Poe in my opinion so let's pay homage to one of the most horrific (in a good way) poets/writers ever and make an ATC, postcard or bookmark in his image (or words).

The requirements are this:

You should make your partner either 1 ATC, handmade bookmark or postcard with Poe's image, poetry or prose on it, favorite quotes from his books work too as long as Poe is the central theme obviously. You can make a comment as to what you would prefer, ATC, bookmark, postcard or to be surprised and your partner can try to accommodate you, but I will leave this sender's choice in the end so we can all make what we are most comfortable with. (You could do 2 or all 3 and make you partner extremely happy but hey that's completely up to you, just one form of paper craft is required).

(Now, with all the Edgar Allen Poe stamps floating around this may be a good time to get creative with those (of course you don't have to use them) and for those of you without access to them (i.e. those not in the US) I am sure you can still come up with plenty of imagery and beautiful artwork to make any partner happy! And hey you may get some of our cool stamps in return!)

Now for the truly horrific stuff...minimum rating of 4.8 please to sign up, I will angel if there are flakers, but if someone flakes on one of my swaps it will be the last as I will ban them from future ones. Newbies are welcome with a complete profile.

Any questions or concerns please leave them in the comments or pm me!

So, with all that said please make Edgar proud and help my first swap I host for this group be awesome and sign up and have fun!

Hi NaughtyElf, Is it just going to be the two of us? :) I'm very excited about this swap- I'm going to make at least two items. Not sure how to make the postcards. I'm willing to try though. -Lishmo

Postcards are usually 4x6 inches for a standard size, so you can use any type of craft paper or scrap booking papers and cut them to size and embellish, it's pretty easy or you can use any other material you feel comfortable with, anything goes really!
