Description:

for this swap, you will alter four joker cards from a standard size deck of poker playing cards. (2.5x3.5 inches). You will need to leave the image of the joker on the card and at least one of the words "JOKER" somewhere on the card. You can use any materials such as watercolor, collage, paint, ink etc. Please put your name somewhere on the back so that we know who alters the card. I have the pokers from several decks that were used for various projects. I intend to use the head joker for all of mine. Depending on the deck you might come across a bee or something that isnt human, this is OK, as long as we know that it is actually a joker card.

You will have four partners, sending one joker to each one. You must have at least a 4.9 rating, no 1's or 3's in the last six months and have at least 5 rated snail mail swaps. ( I do check profiles and ratings.) Please do not just throw a sticker on it and call it altered. Be creative. send something that you would like to receive. Remember, Jokers are funny, prangsters, entertaining etc. go with the spirit of the card!

Since this is not a profile based swap, you have plenty of time to make the cards, but only a week to send them out when the partners are assigned.

By leaving the joker on the card I mean that you can dress it up or what ever as long as we can see that it is a joker.

Love the idea, but I don't have four jokers... most of my decks came from thrift shops, and I assume the previous owners tossed out the jokers at some point. :( If anyone would like to do a private swap with one or two partners, let me know!

Wow! and I have like 7 jokers here from various decks that my students destroyed! I wish I could get them to you in time!
