MMTPT631 ~ Tickle a Teapotter ~Hats On for the Derby
TICKLE A TEAPOTTER MMTPT631/AUGUST 2020
PARTICIPATING STAMPERS!
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 30th August . 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 1stSeptember 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.
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.
For those of you who get an international tickle, please don't feel that you have to send anything extra, or even your actual tickle card if it's bulky enough to incur extra postage. Try to keep your mailing to a regular envelope! I know any of us will be thrilled just to receive one of your lovely cards and a happy hello with no extras. I think most of us say "just a card" in our sign-ups, anyway. I can tell you that since ALL mine are international, I try to keep within what I know classes as a large envelope at the most.
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. Please remember to respect angel policies.

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.
Please read the important note below (or above, depending on your viewing preferences).
#6 for Jean. Is this always posted early?? I don't think I've known that. Where have I been?? Just a card is great, unless you have a favorite background to share.

Yes, I always post it on Saturday when I post the TEAser photo.

Vicki (vickydee) is #18. Legal age in most of Canada. I could drink some of those mint juleps without consequence (well without arrest). Just your lovely card is perfect.
Love this challenge - I so wish I had places to wear a Derby hat - they are soooo fun!!!!

Sorry for the delay in getting the PMs sent, I was unable to access SCS all morning. They have all been sent now. Please let me know if you have any problems or need an address or anything. Post is still not quite back to normal, so allow a little extra time and DO make sure to let your sender know (by PM and/or the Tell a Teapotter thread ) which is stickied at the top of this forum whenever their card arrives.
Not going to edit my previous post because of all the bugs and how long it took to get the video to show. Big thanks and our hats off to Sandy for a great challenge this month.
