Description:

For this swap you will be making envelopes out of any paper that has a Black & White color scheme.

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 color scheme is Black & White

  • There should be NO paper repeats -i.e. (5 envelopes made of out 5 different Black & White 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

  • 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 :-)

Oh yay - my favorite series!!! Is black and cream acceptable, or does it need to be pure white?

Black and cream are fine :-)
