I have had request to rehost the junk mail and recyled box swaps. So I thought why not combine those plus more. The emphasis is on recycle, reuse, and repurpose items. Scrutinize your trash, junk mail, beverage coaster, labels, etc. before you send them to the recycle bin or trash can. A lot of talent and good design goes into creating the original material. So start collecting just the right “found” materials. Embellishments are welcome but remember the finished cards must fit into a standard trading card sleeve. Each person will have 3 partners and send 1 ATCs to each partner. All three ATCs will probably be completely different. Any theme, but make your ATCs using 80% found objects. If you can make your embellishments out of found items all the better. Only original ATCs please, no computer generate ones! Artist trading cards are 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 inches, and should be flat enough to slide into a standard trading card sleeve. Please be sure you can meet the mailing deadline before you sign up for this swap. You need a rating of at least 4.6 and no no-sends or ones in the last 3 months. If you've gotten a 1 recently that is unfair, PM me. Newbies are very welcome with a well filled out profile. I reserve the right to ban anyone I consider questionable. |
