Description:
Hi everyone. Welcome to my first swap. I hope you enjoy it, play nice and create mini-masterpieces. You will have one partner to whom you send 2 atc's. Standard ATC rules apply. Any medium. The atc's will be a set, and each card will depict the opposite of the other. For example, one atc could represent cold, and the other hot; or one could be black, and the other could be white; or one be vertical and the other horizontal. It's sender's choice so it's up to you, but whatever you make, be proud of it-or don't send it! This is an international swap open to everyone, however, I will be checking profiles to weed out potential flakers . Have Fun!

Super cool ATC swap idea. I incidentally cannot sign due to personal dates in my schedule at this time, but if you do another in the future, I'm in. (I would so join otherwise.) I hope your swap does well!

The last time I was in an opposites swap this is what I came up with, would something like this be acceptable for this swap?

@NaughtyElf that is awesome!

thebragal 10/13/2012 #

Couldn't we show both of the opposites on a single card and then just make two? There's a cool stamp technique if like to try where you stamp half in black on white and the other half white (embossed) on black and layer them to make a whole image. I'd just make two like that. That ok?

Thanks! I really had fun doing that one! That technique sounds awesome though, got a link for a tutorial?

Hi. Thanks to the brave few who have signed up and to those still thinking about it.

NaughtElf: Beautiful and acceptable.

thebragal: it'snot technically the swap, but CHECK with your partner and if it's okay with them, it's okay with me.

piglet: thank you for your enthusiasm

Thank you, I am still thinking abut joining, I want to make sure I had the time first, and also if I did that those would be cool. Thanks for all your sweet comments guys.

I just had to wait since I did not have room to commit. I hate the 20 swap limit rule.

Yeah 15 people for my first swap. I think that's pretty respectable. Thanks everybody. You should be getting your partners soon. Let's all try for hearts...happy creating.
