Description:

If you like to make hand drawn or hand painted ATCs, this swap is for you. The theme is winter Holidays, content may be abstract or representational. No religious themes are allowed for this swap - commercial/mainstream/hallmark themes okay. The only rules are:

1) The cards must be 100% handrawn or handpainted, with all original artwork made by you (not anyone else)

2) The cards must have a Winter Holiday theme (such as winter, snow or frost, santa, snowman, hot cocoa, skating, trees with or without decorations, presents, elves, reindeer, stockings, peace, doves, you get the idea).

No winter holidays such as kwanzaa, hanukah for this swap. No christian/religious depictions, sayings or symbols for this swap, this includes angels, crosses or crucifixes, depictions of biblical settings or stories, or anything that might offend those swappers not of that faith.

3) 75% or more of the ATC must be hand drawn and hand colored or painted - do NOT draw one small item and leave most or half of the card blank. At least 75% of the card should be covered and created with YOUR original artwork.

You will make 2 ATCs for 1 partner (total of 2 cards). Cards must be hand drawn or hand painted only!!

Absolutely NO embellishments, stickers, collage, digital or prints. Absolutely flat cards - up to two layers of cardstock is acceptable.

The work send must be your original artwork only, please send your best work! With this theme you may start now, these cards are not profile related. This should only cost one stamp to mail!

Swap minutiae:

NO EXCEPTIONS - IF YOU DO NOT FIT THIS CRITERIA DO NOT SIGN UP AND DO NOT PM TO ASK TO BE LET IN. THE ANSWER IS NO.

*For rated (no newbies) swappers only
*Swappers must have 10+ real mail swaps completed and be rated for them
*4.9 or better swappers, with NO more than one unexplained (to me, via pm) no-sends (1 ratings) or late sends (3 ratings) in the last SIX months, no exceptions
* Host will NOT angel this swap but will seek angels, should there be anyone with the bad taste to flake

I reserve the right to ban any swapper at any time, regardless of rating. Absolutely NO questionable swappers. I will ban the day after signups close so don't worry if you see a swapper who does not make the entry requirements.

Hostess reserves the right to ban anyone who appears dodgy for one reason or another.

Questions, please pm me! Start your markers:)

I appreciate all the comments and have edited this swap to reflect a generic winter holiday theme.

For those of you who do not find this swap to your liking, please do NOT sign up. You are welcome to start your own swap to your liking.

Since I am the hostess of this swap, I am free to set whatever criteria I desire. Thank you.
