EE: Easter/Springtime 2 Part Swap

For this swap you will be making envelopes out of any paper that has an Easter and/or Springtime theme. Examples: Eggs, Bunnies, Easter Baskets, Flowers, Lambs, Chicks, Butterflies, etc. (Basically anything that denotes the idea of renewal)

Swap Requirements:

1st PART

• Create 5 envelopes large enough to send through the postal service (according to the USPS the smallest acceptable "letter" size envelope that can be mailed is 5" X 3.5"

• The 5 envelopes must be embellishment free

• The paper to make the envelopes from may have any pattern, design, or texture as long as the paper has an Easter/Springtime theme

• There should be NO paper repeats -i.e. (5 envelopes made of out 5 different Easter/Springtime themed papers)

• The person sending the 5 handmade envelopes must make sure their mailing address is available for the partner, who is receiving the 5 envelopes, to find so that they can then complete the 2nd part of the swap.

2nd PART

Once you have received the 5 envelopes, you will pick one to decorate and then send your mail art envie back to your "receive from" partner

• You may use any medium and style i.e. (painting, drawing, stamping, collage, mixed media, etc.) to create your mail art as long as the majority of the decorations follow an Easter/Springtime theme

• Please include an Easter/Springtime themed card inside your mail art envie. The Easter/Springtime card in the return MA envie can be to your partner or for your partner's future use. (The card may be handmade or store bought)

Since the creator of the mail art envie can't be rated, the "receive from" partner=(the person who sent the 5 handmade envelopes) MUST leave a message in comments section of their "send to" partner's =(creator of the mail art envie) profile page to let that person know their mail art envie has arrived.

• The "send by" deadline for the mail art envie will be 2 weeks from the arrival day of the 5 handmade envelopes, and since each person's mailing deadline for the mail art envie will be different I will be relying on the honor system for this part of the swap.

If there are any questions or queries please leave them in the Discussion section below and I will answer them ASAP :-)
