Due Date: JUNE 4, 2019, its a Tuesday
Withdrawal date: None just communicate.
Number of Cards: 3:3, 4:4, 5:5, or 6:6 your choice
Number of participants: 30
Mediums: open mediums,
but limited to cards that are available for trade and didnt get taken in a trade. ***
This is a chance for you to take some cards lingering in your gallery, those unchosen unloved cards, and to remodel them, update them, revamp them, and give them a second chance at love.
RULES. RULES. RULES. There are always rules. Ok how about EXPECTATIONS
1. The cards need to be ones, you created, and that have been in your gallery, lingering for more than 2 weeks, as of April 1st, 2019. No unloved unchosen, cards posted to the gallery after APRIL 1st 2019 will be allowed for this swap. I HAVE EDITED THIS>. LIMITED TO OLD CARDS THAT DIDNT GET TAKEN, THAT YOU WILL UPDATE. Please, dont use 1/2 finished cards and then finish them. The goal is to improve on card you made that were not taken.
2. You need to change the status of the cards from "Available for trade", to for "ATCS for swaps".
3. You must do a before image and an after image. You may not just send in cards without posting photos form your gallery, before and after. See below on how to add links directly from your gallery.
4. You must tell us what you did to update, remodel the card. Please Do and list two things minimum per card to remodel it. Changing the title doesn't count.
5. Your options for remodeling, are not limited. You may remove parts, paint over, etc. add words, add ink, add trim etc.
6. House shaped, and APCS are allowed, please specify in writing in your mailing, any concerns about themes, shapes or apcs.
7. This swap is a not a place to send your junk or your shoddy work, it is place to improve on you past techniques.
For this swap, you will get back the number you send in, 3:3, 4:4, 5:5, or 6:6 your choice. If you want to send a hostess card, please make a note inside the envelope, so I am clear on how many cards you are trading/swapping. I will write the number on your return envelope. I really dont need more cards, but of course we all WANT more cards. The idea is for us to improve on some unwanted cards, not for me to get more for myself. So hostess cards are so optional, and should be specified that you are sending an extra.
ABOUT MAILING AND POSTAGE
* When you're ready to mail, please PM me for my address, but I have not moved in 15 years.
* I dont need a SASE, just give me an sticky address label and some return postage. I will provide the envelopes. If you want to send a SASE that is fine with me.
* USA players it will cost one USA forever stamp to return 3 cards to you, and 70 cents or more for 6 cards. If you use any embellishments that are thick: Gems, brads, staples, big flowers, please add one 15 cent stamp for each card. These require extra postage and a visit to the PO to have them hand canceled. I dont mind going to the PO. I live one mile from the PO.
* International players it will cost me $1.15 to to return 3 or 4 cards to you. Please enclose a global USA stamp, or $1, or contact me for alternatives. If you use any embellishments that are thick: Gems, brads, staples, big flowers, please add one 15 cent stamp for each card. These require extra postage and a visit to the PO to have them hand canceled.
I project that it will cost me $2.30 to send 5 or 6 cards internationally depending on weight. I will gladly take your countries postage equivalent, as I do join international swaps from time to time.
Returns
* When you receive your returns, please leave iTrader for me and rep points for the artists. It is always nice to tell the player which card you received too.
There is no penalty for withdrawal, and no withdrawal date, but please communicate, no cards, no communication may result in neutral itrader from me the host. I will swap right away, so please mail by the mail by date.
Instructions on how to create an image in a post from a link in your Gallery.
Every card posted in your gallery has a link. It is below the descriptions.
It will start with IMG. and the word "small" might be found in the link. I prefer medium to be added to mine.
I have removed the brackets on the link to the card, below, so you can see what the link looks like for the card. I added color to the word medium. DO not use capital letter.
