Gothic Zetti Swap

Zetti..it's colorful..cheerful, so fun and light...but what about the dark side of Zetti? what does it look like on its BAD days?

This swap is for Gothic Zetti... Interpret this as you like, dark colors, morbid themes...crows, skulls, victorian waifs, vampires, Alchemists, haunted ghost-eye trees, goth fae, zany tombstones and skeletons.

Incorporate text, psychedelic patterns (in dark gothic colors (mixed with some cheerful if you like :D But lets keep it creepy!) and have fun :) Some mixed media work is fine!

I'll try and get some examples made and add them here!

send 2 to 5 cards, get the same number back!

US Participants: you must enclose a SASE with my address in the upper left corner!!

International: You MUST enclose a LABEL with your address on it :) I will cover your postage...if you want to enclose a extra card, that's fine :)

Due Date: IN MY HANDS February 4th

Returns will be mailed out next week, I'll post again the exact day :)

[altermyworld]

Do we have a complete scan of all these babies?????
Ang

[EraserQueen]

Yes, I won't be sending them out until all are scanned... I probably won't be mailing returns until wednesday.

[altermyworld]

thats ok, i would just love to see them all together. Wouldn't that make a great PC or poster all of them together?
Ang

[EraserQueen]

Yeah, it really would Ang!!

If anyone needs the hi-res scans I'm making of their cards (I'd like to make this a gallery in the mag...) please PM me with your address! Also, if this does become a Mag gallery, I will need release forms from ya'll!

[EraserQueen]

I wanted to let you all know that these have all been scanned (let me know if you want to include one in the iATCs book!)

And I'm going to swap theme out and mail Sat or Monday!

Yay! And thanks for participating!!!!

[altermyworld]

OOOOOOOOO i can't wait, EQ sure i would love mine to be included if you see fit to.
ANg

[princessgene]

If you feel my cards are worthy of being put in the book, please go ahead.

[dina54]

I'd love to submit mine to the book :D

[katie]

Maybe we could trade prints sometime?? :jiggy:


do you have anymore cave pony prints left?...

I can make a print of most anything in my gallery.... but you should select several, so I can see which one will make the best print... I will go over any gold/metallic stuff..

you can use my goth zettis for your mag if you feel they are good enough ...

I am looking forward to receiving my cards... thanks for hosting

[crazyfish_666]

you can use any of mine!!!

[EraserQueen]

You guys are awesome! I have sent you all a message regarding the Gallery for the magazine! :jiggy:

[mrs_weyremaster]

I'd like mine to go in the book too. :D

[EraserQueen]

Oh Yes! Your card being in the magazine in no way prohibits any of your Gothic Zetti cards from inclusion in the book!

[crazyfish_666]

have these been sent out yet??? i haven't received anything...

[EraserQueen]

Yes These are going out! I have already swapped them out :) I have been house bound, and I do not trust leaving these out in the mail box. These will be mailed out Monday (as we are getting bad weather Saturday morning.) Sorry for the delay, I got frostbite of my toes. :eek:

[mrs_weyremaster]

I'm sure they are worth waiting for, and don't want them getting damaged by nasty weather. Hope your toes are feeling better :)

[kosmopooch]

Geeez, EQ. Using frostbite as an excuse? Now, that's a GOOD one! :wub:

No worries! Keep yourself well and safe!

[EraserQueen]

I have have missed several days of school because of it, and no doubt it will be lowering my GPA :mad:

[EraserQueen]

Heavens, I forgot to say that returns were mailed out Monday!

[dina54]

Super cards from ninnerfish,kosmopooch and katie just arrived!!!
They are ALL terrific.
Thanks for hosting E.Q. :D

[artyiagirl]

I rec'd an awesome envie in the mail today! Big thanks to EQ for such gorgeously gothic returns. Thanks to these talented ladies for their art:

Mrs W for Zetti Lizard Creature - He is very cool in person. Scans don't even begin to do the card justice!! The color palette is intriquing.

ANg - The cutout effect with the silver backing is such a great idea!

Kosmo - Sweet Goth - her eyes are creepy and fabulous.

Whitemoth - I rec'd your the "little miss goth zetti is all dressed up" card. She is so great. Seeing your cards in person is always a treat. You are so good and mixing media. I learn a little something every time.

P.S. I've been down all week with a nasty case of the flu - so this was definitely the bright of my week. So, my very gracious thanks to everyone for bringing me a little joy in the midst of my sickness!

[katie]

I rec'd my cards today!
I would like to thank dina54 for 'When She Was Bad'... & marla for 'Zephyr'... They are both really wonderful cards & so well made... with lots of attention to details... my thanks to you both... & many thanks to EQ for hosting...

[kosmopooch]

Thanks so much to everyone for the great cards and to EQ for hosting! I received cards from Princessgene, crazyfish, and dina54. Thanks everyone!

[princessgene]

I'm finally catching up on my feedback and swaps. Thanks to ninnerfish, kosmopooch, and crazyfish. Excellent cards!

[mrs_weyremaster]

Still waiting on mine, hopefully they will arrive in the next couple of days.

[mrs_weyremaster]

I'm beginning to worry now, as i haven't received my returns.:(

[EraserQueen]

That's strange Suzi. I waited to mail Ang's (Which are being mailed tomorrow)...Maybe yours is with hers? I thought I had mailed your out..I filled out several customs forms that day... I'm sorry about this wait...and If I still have them, I'll send you an extra ATC :(

[mrs_weyremaster]

I'm just hoping they are not lost, so if you have them that is wonderful, fingeres crossed.

[EraserQueen]

AUGH! I DO have them! The wait has been my fault completely I'm so sorry! I'm making you an extra and sending tomorrow.

[mrs_weyremaster]

AUGH! I DO have them! The wait has been my fault completely I'm so sorry! I'm making you an extra and sending tomorrow.

No need to make me an extra, i'm just really pleased to know they are not lost. :D
