This is a US swap. 1 partner, 1 minizine that will be a collaborative effort. Please don't sign up for this swap series if you can't commit to at least 3 rounds this year and please feel free to jump in or out at any time. If you need to take a break, pm me to get your zines back in rotation! If you have a received a zine, work a two page spread and send it to your partner, as long as they have not worked on it yet. If they have or if you are just joining, start a new minizine by decorating the front cover and leaving the back cover blank, other than your return address. Or pm me, I have extras that I can send to you! Set the theme for your minizine or keep it open themed. Make it FLAT, nothing bumpy or lumpy - this is not a deco but a minizine so ideally it will be hand drawn/handpainted/hand lettered, collaged, rubberstamped, with limited stickers and washi. Your minizine should be 8 pages total: Front Cover/Page 1 (made by you), pages 2-3, pages 4-5, pages 6-7, back cover/page 8 (Put your name and mailing address and leave room for signers). Last person please send home. Theme ideas? Senders choice, list zines, poetry, doodles, zentangles, colors, holidays, shapes, etc, Anything goes If at any point in time, you need to drop out, please send me your minizine or any ones you have on hand and I will keep them moving along. If you wish to join this swap series after the first round, pm me and I'll set up a private swap to get you started and 'caught up'. If you are on Instagram, post a pic with the hashtag cpgswap |
