Wings/ Flying things Postage stamp ATC -USA

To save on the cost of postage, we will send 3 ATCs to one partner.

The main theme is flying things and/ or wings on used postage stamps. Moths, butterflies, insects, birds, airplanes on a postage stamp.

I just realized that Penguins don't fly, Chickens well not so much but kinda, A hot air balloon flies but no wings. So how about you get that it either has wings or it flies or both. The main idea is 3 ATC cards with at least one stamp each, about wings or flying things. One exception, I realize you can fly a flag, but nobody wants those flag stamps. NO flags! The circus stamps with the flying trapeze artist also do not count. That is just talent at flinging yourself and catching something before you fall, not flying.

This is senders choice and you may get started any time. Your 3 cards need to vary beyond just having a different postage stamp. They can coordinate, but please let your art be more than gluing on an used postage stamp onto the same background. I hope you understand the difference between 3 cards that coordinate or look like a set and 3 cards that are the same with a different stamp on it. BTW, No they don't have to coordinate

Be creative, do layers, add ink, or a rubber stamped image, or emboss, or fibers, or embellishments, a boarder, washi tape, paint, various papers on the background. Use words or found poetry. Make something fun and beautiful.

ATC cards measure 2.5 x 3.5 and have a firm backing. Firm backing is either chipboard or the firmness of a playing card or trading card. If your cards flaps in the wind when you hold it and shake it the paper is too thin. The back of your cards needs at least your name, your nickname, at least some contact info. Other things you can add are: the date, swap-bot, the group name: All about ATC, title, mediums used. Number of the card such as 1/1, 1/5.

I will angel this swap, but will remove anyone who has a recent or valid 1 or 3 rating to reduce the flaking. Some of group members have some very unfair 1s and 3s on their profile, and they are very good swappers.

This should cost you 49 cents, add an extra 22 cents if it needs to be hand canceled. Hey go the PO and give the envelope to the clerk if you are hand canceling. They just mix it in the machine mail if you don't make that clear.
