Ok, so I've noticed that there are all sorts of swaps now for something called a "Skinny", which is like an atc, but larger. I like creating things in the landscape format (where the base in longer than the height)... So I figured I would start my own swaps for little works of art in a size that I enjoy, which I am calling CHUBBIES :) These Chubbies will be 4x6, and should be created lengthwise (meaning 6 inches across the top and bottom and 4 inches high- on the sides :) These fit into photo albums with the plastic pockets :) YES, I am aware that these are the same size as a postcard, however they do not have to be mail-able on their own, so could have more embellishments, things hanging off them, etc. You do not have to be able to write on the backs, as you would a postcard ;) They also MUST be created in the landscape format (therefore making them "chubby") :) Besides, "postcard" insinuates it could be bought :)... and these can't! I hope that makes sense. For this swap, you will create ONE Chubby for ONE partner and the theme is Valentines Day - this means you can do it based on ANYTHING to do with Valentines Day- love, hearts, cupid, famous couples, etc etc. You can collage, draw, paint, etc. Be sure to make it on something sturdy so it doesn't get ruined in the mail (cardboard or cardstock, please). Put some effort in, and don't just send something with a sticker slapped on it :) This swap is US only, due to the time frame. Be sure if your chubby is extra chubby to make sure you have enough postage :P I will be checking profiles, so no recent 1's or 3's. Newbies are welcome with a WELL filled out profile. I will ban anyone who seems suspicious. Please send ON TIME, and as always rate promptly and fairly! I will ban known non-raters! Any questions, please PM me. |
