Description:

So I have another crazy idea for a swap series. A Pagan/Witchy card set. I plan on doing one for every High Holy Day/Holiday.

You DO NOT have to have played the previous rounds to play in this one. If you would just like to make and receive Yule/Winter Solstice cards & meet the requirements, please join!

The ones I will be showcasing are the following:

Summer Solstice - completed

Lammas- Completed

Autumn Equinox - Completed

Samhain - Completed

Winter Solstice - This Round

Candlemas

Spring Equinox

May Day

This is the 5th in the series, but you anyone can join. If you didn't play previous rounds, please jump in to this one! This card is for Yule/Winter Solstice.. Each participant will create a card showcasing their interpretation of this Holiday. It must be hand-crafted and the card MUST be blank. Please make sure to send an envelope as well.

It can be any medium, as long as it is original work. Collage, painting,markers, pen and ink, pencil, etc. Medium is up to the artist.

But here is the twist....make 1 of these cards & then copy and send to all of the participants. If we have 12 people sign up, then you will send out 12 cards (but remember...you just make one original and send out copies) to all of the swap partners. And each participant will receive in return 12 DIFFERENT AMAZING CARDS to keep or send off! Incredible way to share with one another and have an amazing collection of cards. :)

I will cut off at 13 participants. So, if this swap seems like something you want to be a part of, join! Must have a minimum of 3.

To Recap:

Make One, Original card showcasing Winter Solstice (or whatever Holiday you celebrate during December) Make sure it is BLANK. (add a note with your name on it, a post-it, even. :)

Any medium, any style - Cards must be a minimum of 5" x 7" (12.7 cm x 17.78cm) (Card style, sizes are closed/folded)

Copy your original and affix it securely onto card stock

Send it out to all of the participants (limited to 13 total swappers)

Create or purchase an envelope for your amazing art card

Receive 12 cards (or however many people join the swap) to add to your new Crafty Witches Card collection

Could I ask my partners to sign the cards, please? I plan to keep them and would like to be able to look back and know who made them. I could just write the names but it's nice to have a signature. No biggie if that's not O.K.

I'm confused by what you mean by 'copy'. Do you just mean 'make the same card 12 times'? The bit where you say "(but remember...you just make one original and send out copies)" is confusing me.

Gofeen 11/ 4/2012 #

I think you make photocopies and stick the photocopies onto a new card, one for each person in the swap. Is this right?

oreon 11/ 5/2012 #

Yes. I make 1 card & then photo copy it onto card stock. But, if you would like to make each one that is fantastic. I just wanted to make it as easy as possible. Artists choice. :)
