Description:

*This week is themed. The theme is Maps. Please use a map or part of a map, in some way, in your mail art. You will have 3 partners *

I am challenging myself to create 365 pieces of mail art this year. It basically boils down to 1 piece of mail art, each day, for an entire year. Now, that can be done, one piece every day or 7 pieces done on Saturdays, or 30 done on one weekend, or however a person wishes to do it with the goal of 365 by years end.

This swap, helps to get some of the mail art created, in to circulation. You will have 3 partners, and you will send each person, one piece of mail art. It is sender's choice on what type of mail art is sent. I personally like postcards, as they are very artistic and can be mailed for less postage, but anything goes. ;)

The mail art being sent for this swap, can be any type of mail art. It can be a handmade postcards, decorated envelopes, ATC's, zines, anything sent as naked mail...like a rubber chicken, a disposable camera, or a rubber ball (Yes, you can send balls through the mail).

Your mail art can be made using any mediums, like painting, fabric, collaged, illustrated or hand drawn, beaded, or mixed media using some combination of mediums, etc. You can choose to number your art for the year like 1/2013...2/2013, etc or not. It can also be any size or shape...as long as you include enough postage on it......it's your art so it's up to you...just be creative and have fun!

I may do some weekly themes, if you have any ideas, just let me know in the comments section. You may particpate in 1 swap, or every weeks, just join in when you can.....

Please have a filled out pofile and no recent unexplained low ratings.
