Description:

One of the things that I love in getting ready for Christmas is the smell of ginger and baking gingerbread. So letร‚ยดs decorate an envie with the gingerbread-theme.

This is a collage/mixed media-swap. You can use hand-drawn or painted elements, but they canร‚ยดt be the only media you are using. Other things you can include are collage-images, stamping, washi tape, decoupage, rub-ons etc.You may use even stickers, but they canร‚ยดt be the main element either.

Decorate both sides of the envelope. The envelope size should be something between 6 x 9 inches as a "standard" for stateside swaps and 5 x 7 inches or legal size for the international swap partners. So nothing too tiny or huge, please! Use real stamp(s) for mailing, please!

Inside the envelope, put a nice Christmas card for your partner (can be store-bought or handmade) with the name of the swap and your username, thatร‚ยดs it!

The swap picture is made by me and itร‚ยดs my envie for this swap!

If you have any questions about the swap, feel free to contact me! And most of all, have fun!

I know the US has just released some wonderful gingerbread house-stamps, so this is a good change to use them too ;)!

I don't think I can do mixed media art without some paint and hand drawn elements.!

Okay, I think youร‚ยดre right bigmamabird! Iร‚ยดll change the rules, so you can use painting/ hand-drawing as a part of your creation.
