New Swap: Round Robin ATCs

This swap is for Paper Traders members only but we would love to have you join our fun. Please click on the purple yahoo button in the sidebar for more information on how to join.

Round Robin ATCs
4-for-4 ATCs
Skill Level: Any
Sign Up Deadline: July 18th
Project Due Date: Cards to be mailed every two weeks, for five rounds.
Sixth recipient keeps the completed cards they receive.
Hosted by: Beckie Holso

Description: Inspired by our Hitchhikers, this project will consist of making ATCs in a round-robin style. Everyone will start by making 4 ATCs with different backgrounds, then mail all 4 cards to the next name on the list. Each time you receive a set, you will add one unique embellishment to each of the 4 cards and then send them on again to the next person who will do the same. This will continue until all the cards have 5 steps completed and then mailed to the 6th person as a set of 4 different ATCs to keep. It is important that each card in every step receive a unique embellishment - no "cookie cutter" stuff! We want all 4 cards to be very different from each other in keeping with the spirit of the swap.  Please remember to add your name and contribution on the back of each card.

Mailing Guidelines: The mailing list will be announced on July 19th. For each round, you will mail to the same person shown after you on the list. Cards to be mailed every two weeks, for five rounds. Sixth recipient keeps the completed cards they receive.

In order to keep things running smoothly, it's important that everyone mail their cards out in a timely manner.  Sometimes it might take almost the full two weeks for the cards to get to you so please be prompt in adding your embellishment and moving the cards quickly along.  Since you only need to add one thing to each card, we hope this will be an easy process.
