MM&L: Themed Mail Art


For this swap you will create a group themed piece of mail art!

Group theme means something on topic to MM&L including, but not limited to: monsters or cryptids, any mythology or folklore, aliens/UFOs, ghosts or other paranormal entities, esoterica, weird medieval guys etc. Most things in this vein will count, but if you're not sure just send me a message and I'll let you know!

Any type of mail art is welcome: ATCs, handmade postcards or bookmarks, decorated envelope (please cover majority of the envelope with your art & include a chatty note or small tuck-in,) colored drawings or paintings, collages, zines or any other type of mail art you'd like to make. You may use any medium created with effort. Artfully placed stickers are allowed, but only sticker slapping is not.

A couple things to note: If you make a postcard you may send naked/written, or in a clear sleeve or envelope if preferred, just make sure you still write on and address it as if you are sending naked. Any swaps sent in envelopes should have them decorated at least minimally (don't stress about this too much and it doesn't have to be themed, we just want to avoid entirely plain envelopes!) and if your choice of mail art is a decorated envelope please include a chatty note or small tuck-in of your choice.

I'm leaving this pretty open-ended in order to encourage everyone to interpret the swap as they'd like. Just make sure your theme is related to typical group swap topics and that you put some time into whatever you decide to create!


Rules Summary:

  • Create 1 group themed piece of mail art for 1 partner.
  • Any theme as long as it's related to group's interest, any medium/style of mail art. If your mail art is a decorated envelope, cover majority of the envelope with your art and include a chatty note or small tuck-in. Other mail art sent in an envelope should have the envelope decorated at least minimally; it does not need to be elaborate, we just want to avoid plain boring envelopes!
  • Include swap name + username somewhere with the swap for ease of rating.
  • Send on time by the deadline - let myself AND your partner know if you will be late for any reason, otherwise I will have to reach out to you.
  • Rate fairly and promptly once received!

If you have questions about this swap/the rules, or if there are any issues please message me! ~ Thanks for your interest, happy swapping :)
