THE IDEA: The idea is to design your own Postage Stamp. Just type in 'postage stamp ATC' in google and look at the images to see a few examples. Consider your blank ATC card as a massive blank postage stamp which you can develop. Every few weeks I will organize a new postage stamp ATC swap based on a different country. Look up some information on the country of your postage stamp ATC swap and design your postage stamp ATC as if it would be a typical postage stamp coming from that country. For example; you can use flag colors, famous monuments, a famous person, local fauna & flora,... Don't forget to make your ATC look like a real postage stamp - incorporate some typical postage stamp features such as cost, country name,... PREVIOUS AND CURRENT POSTAGE STAMP ATC SWAPS: You can still sign-up for some of them!! This time the postage stamp ATC swap is themed: JAPAN All postage stamp ATC swaps will be listed on my website on the Postage stamp ATC's page: (Left column -> Swaps -> Swaps Hosting -> Postage Stamp ATCs) IMPORTANT: Please put some time/effort into your ATC. Send something you would be happy to receive yourself! Let's make this a great ATC swap :) METHOD: Make your ATC on standard size (2.5 x 3.5 inches). Please use a paper that is a little bit nicer than plain copy paper and, if the paper is not very heavy, please mount it on a firm backing. Put the appropriate ATC information on the back of the ATC: title, number, artist information... Ensure the ATC is securely inside the envelope before sending! Send to your partner :) REQUIREMENTS TO JOIN THE SWAP: A good rating (Above 4.7, no unexplained low marks) Newbies accepted on the condition they have filled in their profile! Just send me a message first if you are unsure! I will ANGEL when needed I will remove anyone from the swap who does not meet the above requirements before partners are assigned. Happy Swapping! Note 1: I would be very happy if you could send me a picture of your ATC. All pictures will be put on the swap-page on my website with a direct link to your profile/ blog/ website. Note 2: On the bottom of the swap page you can fill in a poll to indicate which country you would like to see next in the Postage Stamp ATC swap. + you can also fill in a feedback form. |
