Recycled Mail Art

Recycling is one of my passions. Paper waste in particular really gets to me. So I've designed this swap to create mail art using only recycled items.

1. Envelope - either re-use an envelope you have received (junk mail/other incoming envelope) or create an envelope with recycled paper (book pages, publication pages <-- thicker than regular magazines, a cereal box. Anything goes as long as it is made out of recycled paper products.

2. Embellishments - this is mail ART after all, so gussy it up a bit. Use product labels, old stamps, other repurposed ephemera items. Again, anything goes as long as it's recycled.

3. Inside - a note for your partner with your SB info and the swap name (to make sure you're rated quickly/appropriately). One small flat surprise (does NOT have to be recycled!) - stickers, a postcard, notecards - just something nice that you'd enjoy receiving yourself.

Newbies welcome with a well filled out profile. Obviously no flakers - no unexplained 1s or 3s. I want this to be fun for everyone, so I will angel if necessary.

This is my very first time hosting a swap! If I have missed something, please kindly let me know (please, don't be all sarcastic and rude in the comments!).
