Stock up on rubber, sharpen your tools: It's carvedecember soon!

In this swap you will carve at least one carvedecember inspired rubber stamp and make some kind of Mail Art using that stamp for two partners.

Read through the prompt list and decide on one topic you'd like to use for your newly carved stamp. (Feel free to use more than one - but one's enough.) Then you create some Mail Art using that stamp. Whatever kind of MailArt you'd like to do. Examples: Postcard, ATC, decorated envelope, artistamp, mini-zine, sticker, notepage, ...

You could send the same kind of Mail Art to both of your partners or do different things for each one, that's up to you.

Size of the newly carved stamp is your decision. It can be small or huge - or anything in between. (Last year I used standard erasers for doing "pinkeraserartober" - a challengingly small size. You can see the results on my instagram.) Postcards can be sent without envelope if they are sufficiently sturdy.

You can find the prompt list for 2024 here: https://www.instagram.com/myartpracticecommunity/p/DCNqfa4ubpq/

I will read the profiles before matching the partners and take the freedom to exclude members. No recent 1s or 3s!

This swap is open for all skill levels and for newbies as well. If you are new at carving stamps, why not join the full thing and carve a stamp every day? You will see how you'll improve!
