Earlier this year, I made a series of 12 faces for a series of cards. The stamps were planted by scouttrekkie in Tennessee. I fell in love with carving interesting faces in the process. I want to do more!

For this swap, please carve an interesting face from somewhere else in the world. The emphasis on this card should be in the carve, not the card. Interesting papers or finishes are OK, but I am really interested in the face. The back should include an interesting fact about that culture.

I am giving extra time because of the holidays, but please don't join unless you are reasonably sure that you plan on following through.

Send your cards in any way you are comfortable and include return postage. I do recommend a bubble mailer since it's such a large swap.

I welcome all questions and experience levels. :)
