Description:

IN THE NETHERLANDS IT IS POSSIBLE TO DESIGN YOUR PERSONAL POSTAGE STAMP, LET IT PRINT BY POSTAL SERVICE AND USE IT ON YOUR MAIL (IT HAS A REAL VALUE).THE IMAGE YOU SEE IS MY PERSONAL STAMP (I am a tailor) AND I USE IT ON MY PERSONAL COMPANY-POSTCARD WITH THE SAME IMAGE (of course you have to pay for those stamps and the service).

For this swap you are going to design two postage stamps - ATC's.The stamp is as big as the ATC, the ATC is the stamp. ATC rules apply.

The first design is a personal design, the stamp tells/shows something about you. For the second design you need to read your partners profile and you will design a stamp that fits her/him, your partner should recognize the stamp as hers/his.........

The technique is free. In the picture above I used a selfmade photo of a design for a wedding dress (yes, a modern wedding dress!). Personally I think it's more interesting to use your own pictures above magazines, that's no must, you are free. You can paint, sew, cut and paste, draw, embroider etc, technique is senders choice. The stamp is the ATC and on the stamp you have to see the value and a country, can be existing value or country, can be fictional.

Rating requirements: no 1's or 3's last year, 4.99, at least 10 ATC's, I will check participants. I will angel if necessary, but, please contact your partner first.

I like this idea very much and I am going to start with my personal design postage stamp right now. When partners are known I do have time for the second one.

I really love this theme, but cannot join at this time. I do hope there may be another similar swap posted in the future! :)
