Description:
Please do not sign up for this swap if you cannot commit. Your challenge is to make 31 different Halloween cards. Step 1: make 31 different ATCs , yes they must ALL be different Step 2: apply your name & contact info and date on the back of each and every single card for your partner. Step 3: wrap each card individually or put in envelope or sealed Halloween festive treat bag you may include little tidbits of ephemera in each individual package if you wish ie. stickers, die cuts, punchouts scrap paper, sleeves, etc. but not mandatory Step 4: Put in box or bubble mailer to send to your partner. I am keeping this swap for Canadians only because of issues with post office and border crossings. It work but want to keep it in Canada. You will get to open an envelope each and every single day starting on October 1, 2016 all the way through to October 31, 2016. You won't even believe how much fun this game is. We open one last one tomorrow for this years game and if I don't host my own Halloween Howl, its not going to happen so lets join in on the fun and we have almost an entire year to prepare for it. So join in on the fun, its just like Christmas where you get to open a window in your chocolate calendar 25 days before Christmas but only better because your not getting calories your getting art, and there is nothing better than art for 31 days in a row... Remember, this is a time sensitive swap, you MUST have your cards done and to your partner on time....thanks for joining us.

Not sure, first time. Do I mail my cards any time between March and August?...... Mail all the card to 1 person, is this correct.

You make 31 different cards, wrap them up individually (in and envelope or with wrapping paper) so your partner does not see them until she opens them. Number them 1 - 31, then you package all 31 cards up and send them to one partner before October 1st.

Then on the first day of October, we start opening one ATC per day. It's so much fun to have a little Halloween surprise every day during the month.

I already have six completed. I'm using this opportunity to try out some new techniques.

you will be getting 1 partner, so you are to make 31 cards, all different. Its quite a commitment which is why were posting this swap now so you can start making them anytime. Partners will be drawn on February 29th which is leap year, And since this will become a time sensitive swap, your partner must have all 31 cards in their hands, all wrapped with the date on the front of the wrapped package and on the the back of the ATC. Both of us have left an explanation and hope this helps. all 31 cards are to be mailed to your partner all at the same time in one package.

Partners will be assigned at the end of February and your package must be mailed to your partner by the end of August. Because it is such a large commitment, we wanted everyone to have plenty of time to complete their 31 cards.

We are letting everyone know early so you can start working on them anytime! Like littlerobyne has.
