MAE: Binder Trading Cards

Welcome to a series of Binder Trading Cards! Since this group is into more than just ATCs, I figured we would try this out.

A BTC is like an ATC except the size is 1.75” x 3.5” and always portrait orientation. BOTH sides are decorated and one top corner has a hole for the binder ring. You can decorate the hole (like a tag) if you wish but be sure a ring can still fit through. It’s encouraged to include bulky items and have some items hanging off the edges as they are stored on a binder ring rather than in a box or book. Make sure any items hanging off the edge look good from both sides. They have a lot more freedom than ATCs!

For this first swap, we will make one card with no theme to get everyone started.

*please use a combination of at least 4 layers and/or embellishments. NO sticker slapping

*no teacher/reward stickers, pixelated computer printouts or magazine pages (unless significantly and beautifully altered).

*make something lovely you'd be proud to receive and wish you could keep for yourself!

*this is sender's choice but please respect your partner's dislikes for instance, don't add bugs if they hate them or colours they don't like.

*please have no recents 3s or any 1s without a good explanation in the comments of that swap or send me a note first.

*Please consider hearts for your partner if they made a really nice Card. Extras are not the only reason to give hearts. Be generous!

*i will angel once you have PMd twice and gotten no or negative responses and have rated a 1. Let me know if things aren't working out in your discussions. I'm happy to help!
