Splitcoaststampers.com - the world's #1 papercrafting community
You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
We love and appreciate it when you upload your cards so that everyone can see them, it really contributes to the community feeling of this challenge.
1. If you are participating in sending your card this month to a fellow teapotter please post a comment in this thread.
2. Just post your Splitcoast Screen-name and a number next to it. The number will indicate in which order you happened to the thread.
Like this using *Cook22* as an example for the screen name....... Cook22 #1
Then the next person will be HappyStamping #2 and so forth.
3. I will then match up the number in this thread with a card belonging to another participating teapotter and pm everyone with their Tickle Assignment!!
Tickle A Teapotter Card Exchange Guidelines!
Since everyone is excited to get tickled by a Teapotter, here are a few guidelines. Make sure to read them all.
1. You will be receiving a short pm from me on Sunday the week after the challenge - so that will be Sunday 3rd February. It will be short and will simply say in the subject line: You tickle........
Inside the pm it will give you the SCSer's name that you are to send your card to.
If you do not receive a pm from me by the evening of Monday 4th February, please do contact me in case I messed up.
2. Please mail your card shortly after you have received word from me regarding who you are tickling! Everyone is excited and looking forward to getting their card!
If you cannot get your card off in the mail for some reason please let me know or let the person to whom you've been assigned know.
3. When you receive your card from a Fellow Teapotter, please send a pm to that person so they know their card has been received or post a comment in the Tell a Teapotter About Your Tickle thread located HERE. You can even do both!!
4: I do a random draw to assign each participant for another Teapotter to send to, just in case you're wondering. I do track who sends to whom each month, and if you get the same person twice in a row I'll toss their number back in and draw again, but otherwise it's totally random.
The "helping hand" came about because someone said that she so enjoys participating in the Tickle and loves sending some little extras but sometimes struggles to know what the recipient would really like and use. I know some of us are happy with anything - but I have to say I really appreciate a little input as to what the recipient would especially like, in case it's something I happen to have, so while you will be happy with anything, it sure does help some of us to have an idea what to send!!
In this post is a short list of items.
When you sign up, you can choose to mention up to three things on that list as being things that are "you", and which you will enjoy using.
This isn't to say that you will get them - but if the person tickling you needs a little help, it will give them a helping hand!
And if you don't want to pick anything from the list, the person tickling you will do their Teapotter best as they always do :mrgreen:.
Embossed backgrounds
Die-cuts
Animal images...cute or more "real"
Vintage style images
Sentiments
Humorous images
People images
Nature Images
Ribbon/bling
* a wild card. Would you love a few llamas or flamingoes, or some AI images? Or...? Again, it's no guarantee, but if the person tickling you has something that you have added as a wild card, chances are you'll get even luckier than usual .
And if you are happy just to receive a card (many of us have so many wonderful extras that we're busy trying to use them up), mention that when you sign up. Any indications of just a card or helping hand tips are included when I PM the assignments.
But would be happy with anything or nothing. Either way you want to do.

I always forget to sign up. It's probably too late for January??? Or is it February? I've never done this and I'm confused.
Not too late to sign up, Jen.
As per the first post, this is the January tickle, MMTPT549.
The sign-up thread is normally posted at the same time as the TEAser sneak peek photo on Saturday morning. The TEAser is to give extra stamping time to those of us who are busier: anyone who wants to stamp over the weekend can always assume that if they base their card on the teapot photo, it will fit the full challenge which is posted on Tuesday. The Tuesday challenge post always gives the cut-off time for signing up for the exchange, which is Saturday evening following the challenge. This gives people plenty of time to create even if they wait till Tuesday to see the full challenge details.

Thanks!

I love coloring cute images of animals and kids. Would love an image of a fairy. Or I love realistic flowers and nature scenes. Basically any image would be super fun!
