Description:

This series is for a blank notecard and not for a greeting / occassion card. It's up to your partner to use it for what they want to. So no greetings / occassion celebration type cards here swappers. Just a good ol' notecard.

You can participate every month or only come when the theme grabs you.

For this swap series you will create 1 handmade blank notecard + matching envie every month in the chosen theme. You will also include a 'little something extra' in the chosen theme.

The notecard is for your partner to use, so leave it blank inside. Write a seperate note / sheet of paper for the swap info. Make sure the card and envie both correspond to the theme and each other. The envelope does not have to be handmade, but it needs to be decorated and the card must fit in it comfortably. Basically, just make 'em match and usable.

The 'extra' can be store-bought (etsy counts) / handmade. 'Little something extra' ideas:

  • 1 bookmark
  • 1 ATC
  • 4 inchies
  • another notecard (any 'greeting' / blank)
  • 1 flat feltie
  • 1 pen / pencil
  • 1 letterset (2 pages; 1 envie)
  • 2 postcards
  • 1 small writing pad
  • 1 post-it notepad

You get the idea. Do not let the list limit your thinking. As long as it's quality, it's fine. Wow your partner.

March will be dedicated to Communication. Not getting too scientific in definition. So anything you expect to associate with communication e.g mailboxes, mail carriers, postal imagery, telephones, spoken words, written words, body language, foreign languages, sign language, translations etc. Use your imagination and make something great.

This is sender's choice. You may suggest what you would like as inspiration in the swap comments, but rate fairly. The more options you give your partner, the more likely they can go stash-diving and send you great things :)

What you need to join:

Min 4.95 rating. No recent 1's and 3's. Newbies welcome (as per group requirements). I will ban as I see fit.

This is international, so allow for enough travel time before rating. I would suggest 6 weeks as fair. Contact your partner before rating down (1 or 3). Communication is key. Be fair and nice to your partner. We are all adults here.

Feel free to contact me with any questions. If this goes well, I will continue with the series. Suggestions for future themes are alwaysvwelcome.

Summary:

  • Communication theme (for all elements) of sender's choosing
  • 1 x handmade blank notecard and envie. Card must be handmade, envie can be bought and decorated. They must match.
  • 1 x low cost extra. Handmade or store-bought.
  • Send what you are proud of.
  • Rate your partner.

Let's have fun everyone :)
