Swap Due Date - November 8
postage date for internationals - October 11
I live in Australia - mail will NOT reach me quickly! I suggest you allow at least 4 weeks
Number of Cards - 3:3 or 6:6
Number of participants - unlimited
Medium - any and all but each card MUST contain an obvious element made from a rectangle/ rectangles.

MAILED OCTOBER 24

These could range from the obvious use of: brick wall, tall apartments, books and/or a bookshelf, phones or cameras. Or try something trickier like: Lego blocks, trousers or a T-shirt, a grid iron ground, a door that opens or. . . surprise me.



I have made a series of things made from different shapes so here are my proposed future topics. All swaps will be due on the 8th of the month.
December - Hearts January - Hexagons February - Ovals

Please include a background for your rectangles. Plain white backgrounds will be returned unswapped. Post to the thread to sign up.

Postage:
International players
: a well hidden US$2 OR a Global Forever stamp
Australian players: a $1.50 stamp
Start a conversation to ask for my address when you are ready to mail your cards. If you have an address in Robina, Queensland I am still there.

ALL players please include a LARGE address label. I will provide envelopes.

1. Do your best work - I plan to swap effort-for-effort as much as I can.
2. Clearly write your USERNAME and the SWAP NAME on the back of all your cards (so you can get Rep comments) and on the back of your mailing envelope. I am running a few swaps and do not want to put you with the wrong returns.
3. Please mail early to allow time to reach Australia.
4. An extra card for the swap Host is greatly appreciated but is not required.
5. I will give Feedback when I receive your cards and will update this post. In return I encourage you to give Host Feedback to me when you receive your swap returns, and Rep comments to the artists whose cards you receive. After all, knowing where your cards have gone is half the fun, I think.

Betsyg - where do you get your ideas? I LOVE your shaped animals and will tell you when they arrive
LuK - great cards, I will tell you when they arrive
leydab - so glad that you are having fun, welcome back

I am working on a few new cards - 1 has a few modes of transport (train, truck, stretch limo) and, in Australia there was a trend in the 70s for kaftans - basically a rectangle for the body and 2 rectangles for the sleeves
 
You are all amazing!
I have just arrived home from a 2 week visit with my newest grandson down in Melbourne and in the HUGE pile of mail that was held for me was ALL the remaining cards - from: Tillygo, Betsyg, LuK and leydab.
This means that I will swap them out today and get them on their way to you early. Thanks for being so organised.
