Description:

Another round as last year was so much fun! I still have the awesome mail art I received displayed in my craft room :)

It's just around the corner, the wonderful spooky time of year, HALLOWEEN. I thought it would be fun to do a themed mail art swap :)

Objective; For this swap you will make 1 mail ART piece for 2 partners (2 mail art pieces made in total) decorated in a Halloween theme. What is mail art? This wiki page says it best Decorate a postcard or an envelope and send them to your partners. Naked =without an envelope for postcards. And empty for an envelope. But please make sure your envie is sturdy enough to go through the postal system, so adding a piece of cardboard inside might be an option!
Minimum size is a standard 4x6 inch (10x 15 cm) postcard/envelope and BOTH SIDES need to be decorated, but make sure the shipping address is readable. Since Halloween is right only a few weeks away, this is fairly a quick turn around swap, but since it's not profile related, feel free to start making your creations right away. All mediums are allowed, anything goes, just do your best work, keep it to the theme and have fun!

The obvious bit; You already had to have a rating of 4.9+ with no recent no-sends/late swaps, 1s or 3s to join this group anyway, so the same stands for this swap. The rating filter is in place so if you drop below that you're automaticly dropped from the swap. But I will check participants before sign up to see if anyone has late swaps on their dashboards, so if there are any concerns please contact me about it. Sending me a PM fmight be quicker as I don't check the swap paige daily.

@MissThundercat I think it may have been in a different group, but I had a lot of fun with Halloween Mail Art last year! Thanks for creating this!
