Sign ups for the Zizzer Zazzer Zuzz (Dr. Seuss) exchange are now closed.
This exchange is going to be FUN! The theme is Dr. Seuss - write your own or go with a classic. ;D
Sign Up Deadline: Monday, March 5, 2018
Postmark Deadline: Monday, March 26, 2018
You MUST use the sign up link to sign up. PLEASE check your email to be sure you receive a confirmation email. If you do not see it, check your spam folder. Check your address to be sure it is correct.
You must be a registered, activate member and have made at least one post, introductory or otherwise, in order to participate. Come on - don't be shy - we love new posts! All it takes is one.
Please note, with smaller sign ups, I have been breaking the list into an even mix of all skill levels. So please expect a variety of skill in the exchanges you receive. This also keeps the lists varied.
PLEASE SHOW SOME EFFORT IN YOUR EXCHANGES! This is a fun way to share your calligraphy and receive calligraphy from others. Please do not sign up if you can't give it your best effort as it is unfair to those who work very hard on their exchange.
As always, the following guidelines apply:
1. Although the cards do not have to be individually handmade, some kind of calligraphy should be used.
2. You will send a card to every member on your list (typically 7-9 members).
3. Must be related to the theme.
4. All skill levels welcome!
5. If you end up not being able to participate, please contact me ASAP. If you don't send your cards after the list has gone out, you will not be able to participate in the next exchange.
6. You must sign up before the deadline. No late sign ups.
7. You may want to take a photograph of your finished envelopes prior to mailing.
8. HAVE FUN!

Hi @Erica McPhee ,
May I ask, actually what is the theme of Dr. Seuss? is it about alpabet? ;D

Great question! For our members who may not be familiar with Dr. Seuss, he was an amazing author and artist who wrote some of our most beloved children's books.
His website: Seussville.com (http://www.seussville.com/) has lots of information about him and his books.
His writing had a very unique, lyrical, rhyming style. And the illustrations were creative and colorful.
The theme for the exchange is anything related to Dr. Seuss books, whether it be characters, quotes, a poem you write and calligraph in the same style, etc.
I hope that is helpful! :D
