Number of swap partners:2
Description:

This is the first swap I am hosting, so please let me know if something isn't right. I have stalked this site for a while, so I think I know what I am doing. haha.

Okay, my idea for this swap is that you will list 10 themes in the comment section. Then each of your partners will choose a theme from your list and create an ATC based on that theme. You will do the same for your partners. Be sure to choose themes that you don't mind having duplicates of, because more than one of your partners may choose to make an ATCs with the same theme.

Each person will have two partners and will make one card for each partner (total of 2 ATCs).

Rules: * No recent 1s * Must have a rating of 4.8 or greater *No feedback that says you don't take your time with swaps, that you send late, or that you are a sticker slapper.

I would really like for my first swap to be a success, so I will check everyone thoroughly.

Newbies are welcome, of course. I am a newbie myself.

Most importantly, have fun! Please let me know if you have any questions or if there is anything I should clarify.

My themes:

1.) Yellow 2.) Crochet 3.) LOST 4.) Craft a theme from YOUR list 5.) Koi fish 6.) Mommy/ Motherhood 7.) Vintage 8.) India/ Indian culture 9.) Anatomically correct heart, stomach or lungs 10.) Owls

KatarinaNavane 12/23/2009 #

Looks good to me, only suggestion I'd have is make the rating requirement a bit higher (you can flake a lot of times and still have a 4.8 rating). I've never done a receiver's choice before but I think with 10 themes per person I ought to be able to find something I can work with.

My themes: 1: Steampunk. 2: Victorian 3: vintage medical/anatomy/science 4: Mythology 5: ancient greece/rome 6: dinosaur/any extinct animal
7: mythological/fictional/cryptozoological creature 8: Atypical materials IE anything but paper 9: hand drawn/painted 10: Cherry blossom/sakura
