Number of people in swap:33
Location:International
Type:Type 3: Package or craft
Last day to signup/drop:July 10, 2014

Description:

All participants joining will take a RISK on making whatever theme your partner lists in the comments section below. The idea and inspiration for this swap came from another botter @ghostlysun – thank you!

Upon signing up – you will list three ATC themes you would like your partner to make for you in the comments section below.

Examples (but not limited to): Willie Wonka, Wizard of Oz, Vintage, book page, blue colored ATC, alice in wonderland, zombies, angels, rabbits, lions, an ATC with ribbon or lace – possibilities are endless!

Upon assignment – you will pick one of the themes from your partner’s list in the comments section below.

When I am assigning partners and I see that you have NOT listed three items you would like to receive from your partner you will be dropped.

Please keep in mind that this is a RISK and your partner may not be used to making something of your theme. You should not rate down because you do not like your ATC, per Swap-bot rules.

Inappropriate themes will be banned, e.g. racism, sexual misconduct, sexism, etc.

ATC Guidelines:

• Card size 3.5 by 2.5 inches or 6,4 by 8,9 centimeters,

• No sticker slapping. Sticker slapping is just putting stickers on your ATC and nothing else. Stickers should be used as an embellishment or enhancement to your ATC.

• On the back – include your name, date, swapbot ID and swap name.

• Make sure your ATC is well protected for travel

Requirements:

No unrated Newbies

Must have a fully completed profile - one or two paragraphs will not cut it - please check mine for an example.

Must log in at least two days prior to partner assignment or you will be dropped.

No recent 1s or 3s

Must have completed at least 5 Type 3 swaps

This is an international swap.

Since I am listing this as a public swap - I will angel as necessary after you have given your partner the required 1 rating.

AZmom875 07/ 7/2014 #

Just google any idea, including John Cusask, I was in a swap where I didnt know w certain TV show, or a actor, I just googled. I have been many of these called Pick A Theme, PATS and had no idea about the theme. But gee if you get me, you can do sunflowers or cats, that seems easy.

I love Allegrea but the food themes actually seem tougher for my Muse than say DR who, which I have never seen, but I get the idea. So dont stress, I dont dish out 3s.

AZmom875 07/ 7/2014 #

I think If i get allagrea, I am doing a meatloaf, and squash and then I am writing " 2 out of 3 aint bad on her card". hahahahhahahhah!

AZmom875 07/ 7/2014 #

RooBaRoo 07/ 8/2014 #

1.Diary of a Wimpy kid, 2.The Big Bang Theory, 3.Trees (please make the tree/trees the focus!)

RooBaRoo 07/ 8/2014 #

Okkkk ..... I read up "Better off dead" etc, but honestly, it is a PERSON for a theme .. & not even as in "Nelson Mandela", say, who had a philosophy! John Cusack is wanted here ... for his yumminess, which = good looks, right? Just wondering .... If I get partnered .... will it be considered "sticker slapping" .... If I take a 2.5"X3.5" glossy paper photo print of John Cusack .... & draw goofy mustaches on it (& send)?.............. :P

MiRdLHWY43 07/ 8/2014 #

Better off dead is one of my favorite John Cusack movies :) so silly!

fireyvalkyrie 07/ 8/2014 #

Roobaroo you have big bang and diary omy geesh (crossing fingers i dont get) lol... the only computer I have is what I use on my phone so I ml lost for these things...lol... I would kill it if I had to draw these things.. but a tree I can draw... a sunflower I can rock it... meatloaf I can bake a good one hahaha..

Littletiscrafty 07/ 8/2014 #

wow these themes are getting good. I am soooo nervous on a few too I've NEVER done steampunk! Totally out of my comfort zone but that is EXACTLY what this swap is all about. Taking A Risk!

Some of te themes I have never heard of. I think I'm just gonna draw the first image Google gives me about these themes :-D

Littletiscrafty 07/ 9/2014 #

Just and FYI: if anyone has been worried over @candycore being in this I have vouched for her through private PMs. If she does not come through on this I will definitely angel. I will be spending extensive time to go over everyone's profile etc as well as to make sure a theme has been picked.

This is meant to be a fun swap and as such - just have fun with it! We cannot all be experts on all themes! That is what makes it fun and a risk.

I appreciate all of you who have signed on so far!

AZmom875 07/10/2014 #

Hey this swap made it to the top 10.

Littletiscrafty 07/10/2014 #

Just and FYI - I have NOT reviewed everyone's profile = Just @candycore because she contacted me privately and I will allow her in the swap. If she flakes - which I am hoping not - I will angel.

Since it is now in the top ten spot - I am going to take a lot of time to go through profiles. Any recent 1s will be banned etc. I take flaking very seriously.

Thank you.
