@Angie & @stephiedee will be making & trading an ATC, a handmade postcard & a handmade note card. Wham, bam, thank you ma'am! 1 - The ATC - the only hard & fast rule of ATC's is the size: 2.5"x3.5". While that leaves everything else to the imagination, the convention seems to be for rectangular, paper-based artwork. Being the misfits we are, the ATC's we create for each other need to be unconventional - made out of non-paper materials/non-paper bases, unusual shapes (though still 2.5"x3.5" at the widest points) or have some other unusual characteristic. Artwork and style are sender's choice. 2 - The Postcard - a piece of bitching mail art; size and shape sender's choice. As for the artwork, take some inspiration from your partner's profile. This will end up getting sent in the envelope with the other items. 3 - The Note Card - this will hold the ATC (and may/or may not hold the PC, depending on how big it ends up). Art up the front somehow & write your note in it! The three cards can be a matching set or not, whatever. Pack all 3 up in a groovy envelope and send them on their way. |
