Description:

I recently bought a bunch of black and white materials and I'm excited to use them. You will create one ATC for three different people, and the ATC must be completely black and white. (If you wish you may use one other color for depth but the majority must be black and white). Any media can be used, and since there is no color make them interesting! I'm excited to see what everyone comes up with :)

No recent 1's or 3's, newbies welcome with a well filled out profile. I hope flakers won't be a problem but I will angel, just send me a PM.

Gray would be acceptable - right? When I think of a black and white movie, I also think gray... Just wondering...

Sure! :) I tend to think of rules as "guidelines" which is why I added the comment about adding a color. The goal is just to make them look awesome with a general black and white theme.

Ok, stupid question maybe, but I'm new at ATC's so ... What is type 3? Does that mean there has to be something more than a drawing (like stickers or embellishements?)
Or can anybody tell me where I can find the info about the different types? Thanks! Blue-bird

No worries. According to the page where you set up swaps (I don't know if it says this somewhere else) a type 1 swap is electronic (email etc), a type 2 swap is flat mail with little or no crafting involved (letters, postcards, etc), whereas a type 3 swap is a crafted item which has had significant time invested in it's creation. I consider ATC to be type 3 because of the time and effort involved in making them - even if they end up being "flat". That being said I always embellish my ATCs because I'm into that sort of thing, but I've seen some very beautiful drawn ATCs. I hope that helps :)
