AAHMPC: Blackout Poetry PC- June

This is sender’s choice swap.

What is blackout poetry? Blackout poetry is when you take a written piece of text from a book, newspaper, or magazine and redact words, in order to come up with your very own poetry.

In this swap we are using book pages only. Be creative as you can. Use any colour of marker to make your piece look noticeable. You can add doodle or line drawing to beautify your piece. Create something nice that you yourself love to receive.

-Try to find a book pages around normal postcard size (6 by 4 inch) but if the pages slightly bigger is ok.

-Please do not cut the book pages to make it smaller.

-But you can cut the border (empty space) along the book pages.

-Because of the normal book pages layout, so your postcard is in portrait (vertical) format.

-Put a good hard backing on the book pages

Don’t forget to write your swap bot particulars on the back of the postcard. Mail it naked or if you worry the postcard might get ruin along the journey, put a mod podge over it or mail it in clear plastic.

Swapper need to log in 2 days before due date. I will check before assign members.

Happy swapping!
