Alright, so this is a superhero-themed swap. Whether you like the cold intelligence of Batman, the wits of Spiderman or the teamwork of the Justice League and the Avengers, this swap is for you!
We're going to make and send 3 to 5 superhero-themed items, and whoever wants can throw in a little stash and some candy as well.
SIGNUP ENDS: Satuday, June the 2nd. Partners will be posted on Sunday the 3rd.
SENDOUT DATE: Monday, June the 25th. Of course you can arrange a closer sendout date with your partner, if you're both done before the deadline.
THIS SWAP IS OPEN TO NEWBIES. If you're a newbie you will be paired up with a more experienced swapper and your swap will have to follow the Newbie vs Vet swap rules (your partner will let you know how that works, don't worry).

WILLING TO SHIP INTERNATIONALLY: Yes


SUPERHEROES I LIKE:
~Thor & Loki~ (these two are my most favorite!!)
Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, Ant Man & Wasp (The rest of the Avengers, I know technically Cpt. America wasn't in the original group, but he was "grandfathered" in later.)

I LOVE THE AVENGERS!! The real avengers, I dont care for Fury, Black Widow or Hawkeye.
Batman, Vision, Dare Devil, Sub Mariner,

I really love the original comic book characters they look so cool and the stories were so funny. But I do love the new movies of all the Avengers, the Iron Man ones, the latest hulk with Edward Norton, the Captain America and of course my favorite THOR

What sort of things will we be making or buying to send?

I really like the retro comic characters of Wonder woman Cat woman but modern is okay too I also like Rogue

but V is my absolute favorite…he is a vigilante but he’s still a superhero…ish

I think Mary said 4-5 items, but I bet you could decided with your partner what you'd be willing to do. I think V counts, he's superhero-esque

PS I'll send candy no problem, but I don't think I'll send out any stash in this one, just FYI

@Suzy Lee: as usual you can discuss with your partner number, type and size of the items you're going to send to each other. You can make anything from ATCs to plushies to jewellery to... well, anything, as far as it's "superhero-themed" (which is kind of a broad definition).

I.e., as V definitely counts as superhero, your partner could make you a Cat Woman mask, some Wonder Woman-themed stationery and maybe a V keychain or pocketbook or maybe some V-inspired ATCs. Hope you see what I mean ;)

ok sounds good

@Pamela: you're right! I'll message you ^____^

I almost forgot about this! Eep!
I'll be crafting my butt off every time I get free time this week!

I got Captain Mel's package today and was really impressed especially bc this is her first swap! I got a hand made V ( v is for vendetta mask) I LOVE V!!!! She made me these glittery red wonder woman slip ons, they are a little small so I hope she doesn't mind me cutting out the backs I'm sure theres a tutorial somewhere on here for it.I got some wonder woman playing cards and a small wooden box decorated with my favorite super villans. Thanks Mel!

Hi all
i got monikas package yesterday, because we were both a little short on time last couple weeks we both sent smaller packages- we both sent 2 homemade items and some bought stuff. From monika received: a homemade cat woman style mask and some awesome batman logo stickers. she also bought me an iron man pez !!! Some candy buttons (which i had never heard of before but were lots of fun ^__^
thanks monika ! Hope you get mine soon.

I got The Incredible Suzy Lee's package today, and I was so excited about what was in there! She sent me a handmade Cat woman mask along with a matching bracelet, A Reeally awesome hand painted Black Widow tank top, A bumper sticker type thing That says Captain Mel, A lot of stickers and magnets with all of my favorite superheros, and 8 really awesome ATC's.. Oh and I almost forgot the handmade postcard with a picture of catwoman on it. Thanks Andrea!

I've finally got my package to Mary sent off today :S sorry about the delay. Life just kept getting in the way lol

Oh.. Lol, I almost forgot the small book of onomatopoeia comic book words!

Don't worry Pamela, yours is going out on Monday! Sorry sweetheart, life keeps getting in the way - but it's an awesome swap, I swear!

Monika have you received mine!? If this is the second package you've not received I think i'm gonna have to check the address again!

so sad I missed this swap It looked awesome :(

Anyone heard from Monika recently? :S

@ Haley: We did the tea swap about 2 wks ago are you still wondering if she got your package?

I heard from her a few weeks ago to say she didnt receive it :( Im wondering if I have the wrong address or something as its really unusual for 2 things in a row to not arrive to her- as Ive been swapping on swapbot and CO+K with other peoeple recently with no problems....

Shipping internationally is unpredictable. I’ve done it several times successfully and just recently I had an issue sending to the UK. I actually sent something to you and someone else at the same time and you got yours pretty quick and she has still not received hers as far as I know. I went to the post office and had them look up her shipping number from my receipt and all they could tell me is that her package is in the UK but they couldn’t say where. I wouldn’t discourage you from shipping internationally but since you’ve had a problem with your things getting to her, twice maybe you guys might not want to swap anymore, which sucks bc she’s a great swap partner but there’s really no point in swapping if your things are only going to get lost in the mail.

Mary did you get the package from me yet?

Nope! Not yet sweetie. Maybe today. Any signs of mine yet?

I got mine from Mary ^_^
Here are some pics!
