Description: | |
Last summer I did a swap for paper dog tags. I meant to do another swap sooner than almost a year later but hey...life. These are not meant to be worn and please do not put any personal information on them. Treat them as you would an ATC or an inchie. Dog tags are 2" long and 1 1/8" wide. If you have a real dog tag to make a template that's fantastic. If not, you can find images on the interwebs. The short ends are rounded like an arc. Do your best. You will make 2 tags for 1 partner. Please string them on ribbon, bakers twine, jute, nice string, yarn, etc. Doesn't have to be long enough to pull over your head but maybe 8" or so. (I'm winging this part) If you have metal tags, you are welcome to use them (I think Ranger has some on the market) but it's not necessary. A good sturdy heavy-weight paper will do. Theme: Try to find something on your partner's profile. I have found that some swappers give little information on their likes and dislikes (and conversely, some are super detailed). Do your best to find a theme based on your partners preferences but if they don't have a lot of info, then it's sender's choice. The image above is the set I made for the original swap. NO STICKER SLAPPING. Do your best but put some effort into it. We all agree that artist ability varies from person to person, but a single sticker or image and a bit of handwriting does not count as effort and will get you banned from further swaps. I will angel for any swapper who gets a tag that is sticker slapped. I will also ask for you to send me a pic of it. I'm sorry if I come across as a total jerk but honestly, we should all be adults and this shouldn't even be the issue that it is. Minimum rating of 4.98. New swappers are welcome. Have I missed anything? Send me a message or add a comment below. I don't check swap-Bot on a daily basis so a message will get you a faster response. |
