UN-Halloween Black cat challenge INT

I host this UN-Halloween series every year. I do encourage others, in the group, to create various Halloween themed swap, both USA and International.

I do this swap each year for those atc artists who do not collect Halloween cards, like me.

For this INTERNATIONAL ATC swap you are to make 2 different atcs for one partner, each with a black cat, BUT the challenge is that you need to make it without a Halloween theme.

Please note the USA swap is 3 cards to one partner.

No witches hats, no bats, no jack-o-laterns, Nothing scary, no Zombies etcs. Fall theme is fine.

I do angel all my swaps, once you have contacted the sender twice and rated them a 1.

I also do both a USA only and an international version of my swaps. USA players you are welcomed to join both but keep in mind that if by the rare chance you get the same partner in both swaps, you can mail them together, but you do need to make your partners 5 different cards.

You can start working on your cards now, as it is senders choice.

All cards need to be sturdy, not just a piece of paper. If you wave the card and it is flapping in the breeze it is not sturdy enough. Use chipboard or a few layers of card stock or a playing card for the back. all cards must measure 2.5 x 3.5, with straight edges, unless you are making a house or something. Cards should be vertical not landscape.

Please limit stickers to accents. It is suggested that your cards have more than one medium. For instance a die cut, some washi tape, paint, modeling paste, stamped images, embossing, borders, trim, words. If you add gems, brads, staples, eyelets, or other heavy embellishments, it will cost you 15 cents extra to get it posted as NON machinable.

zentangled and hand drawn or hand painted cat cards are allowed. These 2 styles can stand alone, and do not need another medium.

Please add some contact info on the back, Your swapbot name, the year 2019, minimum. You can also add a title, your location, the mediums used, the swap title, the group all about atc.

Please mail on time. If your country doesnt not have mail service on Saturday OCT 12, you must mail BEFORE that date. Monday OCT 14th is a postal holiday in the USA.
