Description:

I recently discovered an easy and beautiful mixed media technique when creating ATCs and then tried it out on a postcard, which turned out great! I even created a short step-by-step tutorial on how you can create the same mixed media postcard so please see the link below. You will have to copy and paste it into your browser:


Tutorial: Step-by-Step Mixed Media Postcard

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wg5AvvIa4x


As this is my first mixed media postcard swap since making the video, whoever my partner is will get the EXACT postcard I made in the video. Speaking of partners....you will have 1 partner.

Postcard size should be at least 4 in x 6 in. You can make it larger but it will require more postage. This will be US only due to postage. Warning: As I stated in my video depending on the weight and thickness you may have to pay additional postage (more than just a postcard stamp). I also suggest that you ask you post office not to send through the machine as it can be damaged. Make sure to "seal" the postcard with something or it can come apart - I talk about this near the end of my video. Partners will be assigned within 24 hours of the signup deadline to allow time to view profiles.

Now I understand that some of you may not have all the supplies I used so you do not have to follow the tutorial exactly, but please make a mixed media postcard that you put some time and effort into. These will not be slapped with stickers or glued with printed images. If you think this is too much work please do not join.

No recent 1s or 3s and no newbies allowed in this swap. I will be checking profiles and I will ban people who I feel do not meet these requirements. Flakers need not join, because I will not be angeling this swap. If you have any comments or concerns feel free to message me. I hope to make this a reoccurring swap.

HAPPY SWAPPING! :)


P.S. - I am hosting a Mixed Media ATC swap using a similar technique and you can check it out here: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/241062

@Darida - I updated the description of swap and stated the size should be at least 4in x 6in, but can be larger it would just require more postage. @Lady - Thank you for posting a live link. I checked it out and it works! :)
