Signup Deadline: 1/18/10
Mailing Deadline: 1/28/10

Theme: No specific theme – just needs to contain at least 1 (one) product from the Occasions or Sale-A-Bration mini catalogs, along with any other current SU products.

Swap Description:

This swap is for regular sized full cards (5-1/2 x 4-1/4). Envelopes are not required unless you elect to make a card that is a different size.

Card should use a minimum of 1 (one) Occasions or Sale-A-Bration SU! product and utilize only current SU products.

Please use at least 2 (two) layers. Don’t be scared to embellish, SU! has some great matching ribbons, buttons, etc.

Deadlines:

Cards are to be in my hands on January 28, 2010. I will have them all mailed back out on or before February 5. If you are going to be late or can’t complete your cards, please let me know ASAP.

Size of Cards: Normally, 4.25” x 5.5” – can be landscape or portrait. If you wish to create a card that is larger than this, please be sure to include an appropriately sized matching envelope.

Envelopes: You do not need to send an envelope if your completed card measures 4.25” x 5.5” – larger cards will require an appropriately sized matching envelope.

Number of Cards participants are required to make: 1 (one)

Mail destination: North Carolina

1. You will be notified of the hostess’ mailing address, via email. If you wish to obtain the mailing address early, please contact brenda @ cardscraps dot com.

2. You will receive 1 (one) card back from the swap.

3. Don’t write on the inside of the card…that way the recipient can personalize it, if they wish.

4. Scan or photograph your Card Art, because you are going to need this later to post in the gallery.

5. Please do your very best work and create a top-notch card. This means that the images should be nicely stamped, no smudges, straight cut paper and neatly layered elements and embellishments that are affixed securely.

6. When you mail your card(s) to the Hostess, this is what you need to include in your envelope:

* The card you are swapping and appropriately sized envelope if over 4.25” x 5.5”
* A self-addressed stamped envelope if you live in the US. If you live outside of the US, you will need to send a self-addressed envelope and $2 US to cover the return postage. Use an oversized envelope. Suggested size to use is approx. 6 inches by 9.5 inches, which the USPS recognizes as letter sized mail, thus less postage cost.
* A list of supplies you used in your cards. Credit for digital backgrounds or elements. Be sure to denote which swap your card is for.

7. Once your card is in the mail, then you will post in the applicable forum thread ( Card Swaps - Card Scraps Forums ) that it is on the way and the date mailed. Do not post the image until after the hostess notifies you to do so, via this thread.

8. Once the hostess receives all the cards, she will swap them out and send them out to the participants in the envelopes provided. You will also be notified in the applicable forum thread that you may post your card image in the Card Art gallery (http://www.cardscraps.com/gallery/showgallery.php/cat/510 ). Be sure to denote the keyword ID, applicable to this swap.

9. When participants receive their cards, they should post in the forum thread that they have been received.

Now that you have read all the details….who wants to make some Cards and swap with other CARDScraps members?

If you have any questions please post them in this thread.

Happy Cardmaking!
