USAPC: Tag With Prompts #1 Jan

These swaps are going to be somewhat similar to isabellasnow's 3 elements ATCs swaps but not always. Sometimes there may only be one prompt & it will be something you really have to think about; other times, it may be really simple prompts. As per most art projects it is recommended that you use a sturdy base for your tag. If your tag is easy to bend, that is not a sturdy base. Tag sizes will need to be at least a size #4 which basically measures 2.125 x 4.25. For those that math is not their forte, either, that roughly equals 2 1/8 x 4 1/4=) You can use whatever you'd like on your tag like lace, glitter, doilies, ribbon, etc as many swappers may want to put these tags in their journals. You will need to put a hole at the top of your tag with some kind of object for hanging. Could be ribbon, embroidery floss, lace strips, fibers, etc. Tag needs to be put in some kind of sleeve or sandwich bag to protect it from the elements. The back of your tag needs to have some nice designer paper on it or nice card stock. Don't just leave it plain. Of course, the heavier the tag, the more postage you'll pay to send so just keep that in mind as postal rates go up again soon. Our very first tag will have these three prompts:

Something Wintery---Anything that reminds you of winter: cookies, gingerbread, cocoa, ice skating, icicles, polar bears, snowflakes, snowmen, skiing, etc

The Color Blue

A Number---The number really should stick out & not be semi-hidden on your tag.

Those are the three prompts for this month. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. As per usual try to make sure you send out on time & rate your partner as soon as you can. No blank ratings. Also include a note with your Swap-Bot info on it. If you think you might possibly not be able to meet the deadline please contact your partner IN ADVANCE.
