Description:

This Sender’s Choice Starter Set (S.C.S.S.) swap will be for:

One Set of Buddy JAMS

  • Two ATCs or APCs

  • Starter cards will both have decorative backgrounds or papers already affixed. Plain, solid-colored card-stock backers will at least have inked edges, paint, texture, or something artistic on them. Please send backgrounds that have some interest.

  • Set will also include TWO items (total) that can be used as the focal point, accent, or embellishment on each card.

Your partner will use one item per card, so please include at least two items. These accent items do not have to be identical and may be sent loose (not affixed) with the cards if you’d like to give your buddy options.

Please Note: These are not complete ATC kits. Therefore, each artist will be using personal supplies to add to the cards.

Remember to include your User ID, the Swap Title, and your Return Address INSIDE the envelope.

If your return address is on the back of each card it makes it much easier for your partner to return your homer card back to you. You can also opt to include your return address inside the envelope as a note, label, pre-addressed envelope, or SASE (depending on if your partner is across the Northern border) 😉

Please REMEMBER A RETURN ADDRESS is required for this swap!


  • Upon receipt of the starter cards, your partner will rate a 5 (five) for creating the set based upon the swap details and group guidelines (proper size, sturdy/firm backers, return address included somehow inside the envelope, etc.)

  • You’ll finish both cards by adding at least 2 artistic layers, items, or techniques to each card

  • Please remember to sign the back of each card ( or add your address label)

  • Then send one finished card back to the original artist

If you’re going to need longer than 30 business days to complete the homer card, then please let your buddy know by sending them or @CookieMOMster78 a direct/private message.


Feel free to use the discussion section below , or post directly on their profile page to let your buddy know when you’ve put their “homer” card in the mail for them. Or you can include it as a comment when you’ve rated them too. That’s up to you. 😉

Contact me anytime with your questions, concerns, or suggestions.

Friendly reminder about how a Buddy JAM works:

-Artist #1 - sends a pair of near identical background cards (called "starters") to their buddy (another artist in the group, assigned by the 'bot). The backs of both cards are labeled with Artist #1's name and address, and 2 focal points for the cards are included as well.

NOTE: It is always a good idea to include a return address label or S.A.S.E. with this initial starter set so that your homer card can be easily returned back to you!

-Artist #2 - upon receiving the starter cards, adds to and completes the cards by adding 2-4 elements/techniques to each one. Artist #2 also adds their information to the back of both cards, alongside Artist #1’s info, to record who collaborated on the art cards. Then Artist #2 returns one complete card via snail mail (called a “homer” card) back to Artist #1.
