Description:

I recently joined in a swap like this and enjoyed it so much that I decided to make a similar swap myself. :)

The idea of this swap: every swap participant makes a wishlist of 10 themes. Use your imagination, but please don't wish too difficult themes. :) You choose 5 themes from your swap partners wishlist and make ATC's based on those themes. So you send a total of 5 ATC-cards and will get a total of 5 ATC-cards back. :)

This swap is international.

Newbies are welcome, but please send me a private messafe before signing, so I can check that your profile is completely filled out.

Please do not participate if you have "No send"-marks on your rating list.

Would you consider extending the send by date, by a week say? With partners placed on Christmas Eve and New Year in between as well it doesn't leave much time to make 5 ATCs and do justice to them.

renaemarie 12/10/2007 #

Chiming in with encouragement for an extended deadline ... I'm still new at this, and making ATCs takes extra time for me. I adore the idea of having a list of 10 themes to choose from :) I'll check back to see if we could have an extra week. Otherwise, have a great time with it!

Hanna80 12/11/2007 #

I changed the sent by date a week later, it's true what boatingbelle said. So now there is 3 weeks time to do the cards. :)

I take a lot of care when making ATCs and would appreciate it if my partner did the same. Not that I think any of you wouldn't it's just that lately I have received too many cards that have had no thought at all put in to them (you know the bang a sticker on a piece of paper type). Hanna80 if you think I am asking too much let me know and I shall drop from your swap , thanks.

renaemarie 12/24/2007 #

These are great lists -- I would enjoy working from any of them. I suppose I'd better get mine posted, huh? I don't know how to format bulleted lists so I hope this isn't too messy:

01) dark carnival
02) stained glass
03) haunted / ghostly
04) strange rain
05) The French Quarter / New Orleans
06) wild roses or blue roses or pale purple roses
07) steam punk / metallic
08) writers
09) old Hollywood (approx. 1940's)
10) whatever lends itself to your best, most satisfying work

All themes are open to YOUR interpretation. I know not everyone is as dark as me.

Hanna80 12/24/2007 #

I moved the last day to sign up to the 27th of December, over the holidays. I am on travel now. If you have sent me a PM, I'll answer it as soon as I get home from my travel.
