Description:

For this swap, you will create four unique ATC's, one for each season (Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring). Decorate your ATC with something that excites you about each season.

Since I made this international, we will get a whole mixture of things. I am not familiar with every country's seasonal goodness. I think this is what will make it so exciting. For example, for my summer, I enjoy smelling neighborhood BBQ. I might make an ATC of this. For someone else, they may have 10 feet of snow and they like to watch the sqirrels. Please write 1-2 sentences sharing why you chose what you did to represent each season since we are all coming from different geographic locations. (I hope this cleared any confusion up...sorry for that).

-Standard ATC size for each card. -4 ATC's representing each of the seasons (1 for each season) -Total 4 ATC's for 1 partner. -Short explanation of your choice

Although this swap will have 4 ATCs, I would like to make it a fairly quick swap. Please post any questions.

This is international, as postage shouldn't be too much. Newbies welcome with complete profile. No one's and three's will be at my discretion.

I don't think the 'gift-giving season' really counts as a season...especially since for half the world it occurs during Summer, not Winter. So the "no holidays, except for this one you like" is a little disingenuous.

Well, a lot of people relate Christmas to the winter season (at least in the USA), so that's why I used that as an example. (Halloween for fall, another example). I am suggesting that people DO NOT use holidays, but if it gets to the point that is really the only thing they enjoy...then so be it. This is why I also suggested an explanation for the choice. :D

Well, I can see if someone really associates Christmas with winter (or Christmas with summer for you Aussies??!!), and it's what they love, that's what they should make. The idea in swapping cards is to get something you wouldn't make yourself anyway. I can see her point: Think up something else, be creative, but if snow doesn't thrill your heart, or dead trees, or long nights, or school homework, or hot cocoa, go with what does, even if Christmas is it... keeping in mind it is a WINTER focused ATC not a CHRISTMAS focused ATC (for example)

Okay, begin swapping. We have a lot of internationals, so this will be fun!
