Description:

Here is the last color for this swap series- RED :-)

Swap Requirements:

1st PART

  • Create 5 envelopes large enough to send through the postal service (according to the USPS the smallest acceptable "letter" size envelope that can be mailed is 5" X 3.5"

  • The 5 envelopes must be embellishment free

  • The paper to make the envelopes from may have any pattern, design, or texture as long as the main color scheme is RED

  • There should be NO paper repeats -i.e. (5 envelopes made of out 5 different RED colored papers)

  • The person sending the 5 handmade envelopes must make sure their mailing address is available for the partner, who is receiving the 5 envelopes, to find so that they can then complete the 2nd part of the swap.

2nd PART

Once you have received the 5 envelopes, you will pick one to decorate and then send your mail art envie back to your "receive from" partner

  • You may use any medium and style i.e. (painting, drawing, stamping, collage, mixed media, etc.) to create your mail art as long as the majority of the decorations follow a RED color theme

  • Please include a friendly note inside your mail art envie

Since the creator of the mail art envie can't be rated, the "receive from" partner=(the person who sent the 5 handmade envelopes) MUST leave a message in comments section of their "send to" partner's =(creator of the mail art envie) profile page to let that person know their mail art envie has arrived.

  • The "send by" deadline for the mail art envie will be 2 weeks from the arrival day of the 5 handmade envelopes, and since each person's mailing deadline for the mail art envie will be different I will be relying on the honor system for this part of the swap.

If there are any questions or queries please leave them in the Discussion section below and I will answer them ASAP :-)

Let's get rockin' on Red envies!!!

Agreed, @spotteddogs What about turquoise (yes, please), cream, black, teal and, dare I say it,boring old white or cream, just with one tiny colour element that needs to be followed?

When I signed up for this swap series, I had no idea what fun it would be, please, please pretty please, pretty please with sugar, keep it going!

I was thinking of doing a Black & White envie swap (the papers to make the envies would have to have both B&W on them but no other colors) and I thought I would do the Christmas Envie Swap again this year.
