Description:

Please make one ATC or one PostCard for your one partner. The ATC or Postcard must be made using something recycled. It could be as simple as using a recycled materials backing, like a cereal box or recycled paper/note card/book pages, the inside of an envelope, or fabric, or beads, etc. So many ways to recycle when making Mail Art.

January's ATC theme: Hairy

Each month is themed. Please incorporate the theme into your ATC, in some way.

An ATC is sized 2.5 x 3.5 inches. Postcards are minimum 4 x 6 inches. Please sign and date the back, with your artist info. The purpose of this challenge is to make interesting artistic ATCs and/or postcards, while recycling, not to just glue the items of the month on a card.....for example if the theme is flowers...do not cut out from a magazine 1, or even 20 flowers, and sloppily glue-stick them to a backing and call it an ATC.. These are miniature works of art. Have fun creating them.

Hairy, like troll hair? Just trying to figure out if I can do this one.

Would you consider doing a regional USA one as well with these monthly themes? I'm not participating in any international swaps right now, but these seem fun.

Yes, Hairy could be interpreted like Troll hair, or any type of hair like animal, mythical creature, human, etc.

Yes, I will add a USA only version. I have resisted this in my groups as they are International groups, but I can add at least one USA only version each month. I understand the International mail, especially with covid issues, is making swapping Internationally more difficult than usual.

Thank you. I appreciate the USA only version of this swap. :)
