  • Something to do with @katsuyukimoray, my plushie eel blog on Instagram

I’d prefer nothing gory, political, religious, or NSFW, no shedding glitter, and nothing bulky, as I’ll be keeping my cards in a binder with plastic sleeve pages.

I’m Megan in Indiana, USA. I welcome cards from all skill/experience levels! Nothing political, preachy, Covid-related, or shedding glitter, please. I’m not a fan of vulgarity for vulgarity’s sake, but if you’ve got a great quotation you want to use with a swear word or something in it, go for it. (Except the c-word; no time for that.) I keep my cards in sleeves in a binder, so I appreciate low bulk, but that’s not a deal-breaker.

Here are my themes this month:

-Something for my TV Sleuths collection! Send me your fave, or I can provide a list of some of mine.
-artist’s choice
-hot air balloons
-birdcages – empty, or holding something other than a bird
-time machines
-Hufflepuff/Huffleclaw pride (Hufflepuff with strong Ravenclaw tendencies here)
-sweary Lisa Frank (obviously, profanity definitely okay here :laughing:)
-trivia
-something inspired by my papercraft Pinterest board (but non-paper interpretations are welcome): https://www.pinterest.com/meganknoll/papercraft-inspiration
-working title of your memoir (or what you think mine would be called)
-currently reading/current musical jam
-a card in a style/technique you’ve wanted to try

Hi! I live in NJ, USA. I have a huge ATC collection that I’m always looking to add to. Please no overtly religious or political cards. Also I store my cards in baseball card sleeves in a binder, so no bulky or movable (i.e. ones that open or pop-up) cards, please.

I am scent-sensitive (cigarette smoke, perfume, etc. really bother my nose), and glitter averse (though glittery/ shimmery ink is always fun!).

*Themes I’m collecting in all mediums, so do whatever you’re best at (hand drawn, mixed media, stamped, collage, digital, whatever):

-Detective Watts from the TV show Murdoch Mysteries
-Australia
-Canada
-England/ UK
-a mixed media card with a vintage photo somewhere on it
-the TV shoe Endeavour
-the TV show Pushing Daisies
-the TV show X Company
-the TV show Justified , particularly the characters Tim and Raylan
-the British TV show Brassic

*Themes I’d prefer hand drawn cards for:

-sloth
-llama
-moose
-bear
-frog
-a whimsical monster
-a whimsical or goth (or whimsically goth…) Little Red Riding Hood
-a whimsical fairy
-a jester
-a human eye or eyes
-Henry Foss from the TV show Sanctuary
-The Hunger Games* (prefer your own version of the characters/ scenes based on the books, rather than based on the movie actors)
-Diego, Allison, Five, Ben, or Vanya from Umbrella Academy (the Netflix series, not the comic book version)
-any character from the TV show The Office (US version-- so far I have Michael and Dwight)

Thank you for claiming me!

Hi! I’m Robin, back from a long hiatus from ATCs! I love lots of animal themes. I’m not really a fan of religious stuffs or nudes, but otherwise anything goes! (Except political things or covid-19 stuff, this is my escape.) Pretty much any medium is fine, including bulky. Please no glitter.

100% recycled/repurposed

Non-paper medium (Fabric? Mosaic tile? Slab of wood? Sure!)

A bird you’ve never heard of before

Pirate animals

Everyday tasks that are difficult for zombies

Cute monsters

Faux Movie posters for things that aren’t movies, like news stories, songs, dreams, or daily activities

Native flowers

Constellations

The sky at your house

What really lives under the bed

Animals in clothes/professions

Unloved critters - really any of them, but bonus points for opossums, vultures or starlings

Waves

Star Trek TNG (we’re re-watching right now!)

I claim @Reinikka for tbd due 7/9.
Claims (total for the month): 5
Sent (in transit): 1
Received: 3
Outstanding: 1

I’m Laura in Washington State.

Here are some themes, in no particular order!

  • medieval manuscript style creatures (non-human, think bestiary) or lettering (Here’s a handy search for some of the things I’m talking about, but it’s not limited to just these: https://tinyurl.com/ybdun5rc)

  • Pokémon (I’ve started a collection and want just one of each Pokémon; please check the list in the top post of my collection thread to see which ones are already taken!)

  • Animals (shoebill stork, moray eel, octopus, other weird sea creatures, giraffes, degus…)

  • Something to do with @katsuyukimoray, my plushie eel blog on Instagram

  • Animal Crossing (Boomer, Nook Nephews, Flick, Gulliver, Gullivarr…)

  • Other video games (Persona 3, 4, or 5, Final Fantasy (esp. XIV), Tetris…)

  • Seattle/Washington State

  • Interesting word definitions/words that are fun to say

  • crafting (sewing, crochet…)

  • quotes from female authors (esp. Dorothy Sayers, Connie Willis)

  • multimedia stuff including old stamps/book pages/newspapers/tickets etc

  • Osaka, Japan

  • Renaissance England (Ren Faire type stuff)

  • Shakespearean insults (or other Shakespeare quotes)

  • Anthropomorphic animals in period/regional garb and/or doing something interesting

I’d prefer nothing gory, political, religious, or NSFW, no shedding glitter, and nothing bulky, as I’ll be keeping my cards in a binder with plastic sleeve pages.
