This swap is for newbies, those who need to get their ratings up to participate in harder swaps, or those who would like some more practice before embarking on more difficult swaps.

You will have ONE partner.

You will be trading THREE ATC cards with the following themes;

1) Fruit 2) Nature 3) Free Choice - do anything you like

You can interpret the themes as you wish.

The Rules are that the card must be the correct measurements (wikipedia Artist Trading Card if you are not sure) and some effort should go into it. Try your best!

For a heart throw in an extra ATC to make your partner happy.

This is an international swap. Please no flakes - you'll be banned forever on my swaps. Also please ensure that you've posted off your goodies to your partner before the due date.

I will love anything that is made with love. I'm easy to please and I rate fairly. I really enjoy bright colors but pastels (when executed well) are cute too. Kiwi, Strawberries, and Oranges are my favorite fruits. For the open ATC go wild and crazy! I'm ready to have some fun! Whoo hoo!

I'm looking forward to the swap. Green is my favorite color. Right now I really seem to enjoy soft colors. I'm in Florida so I would love lemons.. I usually ask for dog things too. A cat or a bird or fish would be nice as well. Sparkley works good for me too. It's my first trade so I am excited.

I'm very excited for my first swap! I haven't made ATC cards before, but I think they'll turn out fantastic! I really like kiwis and green apples. Hopefully the nature ATC I receive isn't TOO nature-y (I have A LOT of outdoor allergies). When do we normally get partnered? Is it the sign-up/drop-out date? I'm so excited!

This is sooo neat I cannot wait for my first swap! AHH this is awesome! =) I love watermelons and bananas and I absolutely love Tropical places (nature)! YAY!

I have never made an ATC. Is there a website that shows some so I could learn what to do. Please do this one again- I do not feel that I have time to do this justice but would love to try it after the holidays. Thanks, Smilingsassycat

Hi everyone, just to address some questions you all have...

  1. Swapbot automatically partners people up so you don't have to choose
  2. Usually the day AFTER the date it closes - you will receive an email with the partners link so you know who they are and where to send your stuff to.
  3. ATC stands for Artist Trading Card. Look it up on wikipedia for the measurements and ideas. Or look on flickr for pictures.
  4. The choice of what you send your partner is YOURS in this particular swap. If you like you can take into consideration what they may like but ultimately the choice is yours to make. If you want to earn a heart, however - make something that you know they will like.

Any questions? Just contact me directly on swap bot :0) Otherwise, I'll be sending out the partner list within a day or so.

I'm very new to Swap-Bot; I sent out my first swap this morning which also happened to be my first ATC's. I found doing a google image search was helpful to see what is expected of them. From this, I've created my own 'signature card' and also am almost done another series for another swap. I'm looking forward to getting in more practice by completing this one. Swap-bot has so many opportunities!
