november match game: mail by november 30!

NOVEMBER 1/1 Match Game!
Sign up by Nov 14 - MAIL BY nov 30!
This will be a 1 on 1 Artist Trading Card Exchange with an assigned partner! You can do more than 1/1 if you want!


Sometimes it's hard to ask people for personal trades - especially if you're new to the site and not sure what to do. Here's a great way to get trading with new people. You'll be assigned a partner, and you make 1 ATC for your partner according to their profile suggestions. You can make a bigger trade if you want. This swap is open to BOTH divisions so your partner may be from MMA or P&P.

Please note before signing up - No requests! I try my best to make sure you don't end up with someone you've already traded with in the Match Game but no guarantees.


PLEASE COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR PARTNER. SPECIFY WHAT YOU WANT, ASK WHAT THEY WANT!


Instructions


Sign up by nov 14
Partners posted nov 15
PM your partner for their address.
You must mail to your partner on (or before) the 30 of nov. This gives you two + weeks to create 1 ATC.
Go to your partners profile page where you will find a list of themes (comics, cats, hearts, zetti, etc.) Pick 1 of those themes and make 1 ATC. Or figure it out between yourselves - do a 2/2 or a 3/3 trade if you want.
Please create your card in the medium you were accepted at iATCs for. P&P, please hand draw or paint. MMA, please use mixed media, collage or fabric/metal - whatever you normally do. If you're a member of both divisions, then any medium is acceptable.
Mail your completed card to your partner by Oct 31.
Post to the thread that you have mailed your card.


Rules


You must post to the thread when you mail a card and when you receive a card so we can be sure everyone is accounted for.
List themes you collect on your profile page or in the thread below when you sign up
You may post pictures of completed ATCs to this thread if you want but is not required.
This is a 1 on 1 trade so only leave iTraders for your partner, not for me (unless I am your partner!)
If you don't mail out on time then you will not be allowed to sign up again until you meet your obligations.

I just finished my card for Sal, since she'd been so sick I decided to make her one for healing and protection from future winter ills. So here is Lady Ellhorn the Spirit/Goddess of the Elder Tree & Elderberry Bush.

[Bex]

I posted Catpratts card today. Nearly ended in catastrophe. Half way to the P.O. I realised I had dropped the envelope in the snow. Had to retrace my steps, to find it about 20 yards from the house. So I'm sorry if the envelope looks a bit bedraggled Catpratt, but at least it didn't go missing altogether!

[katilady]

thanks bex!

[shahe05]

My card to SeekingForArt also went out in the mail today....

[katilady]

[Bex]

Ditto, but I have scanned it :)

[katilady]
