MAE: ATC SWAP 3 for 3 with a TWIST #13

As we've always done, we will make 3 ATCs & receive 3 ATCs back. Each ATC will be Sender's Choice, plus be different from each other but with a twist. Here's is the TWIST:

Card 1. Add something shiny to one card.

Card 2. Add a dragonfly or butterfly to the second card.

Card 3. Celebrate Christmas in July (if you don't celebrate Christmas, just use a seasonal theme -- your choice).

NOTE: PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR PARTNER TO SEE IF SHE/HE IS OKAY WITH A CHRISTMAS THEME. SHE MAY WANT TO RECEIVE AN ATC THAT IS NOT CHRISTMASY.

So this swap is essentially Sender's Choice ... with a Twist. Just follow the basic rules & make it pretty & non-offensive.

The usual rules apply: an ATC is a small card, 2-1/2"x3-1/2" & decorated by painting, drawing, mixed media, fabric, etc. ATC stands for Artist Trading Card. You can choose any medium in which to make these 3 cards. This is a little piece of art you create & then send to a partner.

Back your cards with a light cardboard, such as a cereal box, for a bit of stability. And, on the back, add the swap name, your name, your Swap-Bot name, & the date you made it, to each ATC. Please also add your address to the back -- at the very least, your town & state or town & country. (I enjoy looking back at the ATCs I receive & see who made them for me. So if your name & at least your town/state/country is not on it, I will never know where it came from a year from now.)

Remember, you must send something to be proud of, as these ATCs will be added to your partner's collection of ATCs. In return, you will get 3 gorgeous ATCs to add to your existing (or new) collection.

Make each ATC different -- no carbon copies here! Use different materials & spice it up!

NOTE: slapping on a sticker or 3 does not make an ATC! And neither does pasting on a picture. You must do something creative to it! Any questions, please PM me.

This swap is open to all members with a 4.98 or higher rating. (And, honestly, we don't have any members with lower than a 4.98 rating.)

Do not disappoint me or your partner by not fulfilling your obligation to send 3 lovingly-made ATCs.

But, most of all, have fun!
