Number of swap partners:1
Description:

This swap will have participants creating 2 (two) Art journal pages each round for one (1) partner using the prompts provided. There are six (6) rounds. The theme loosely relates to a board game and movie. Swappers will ultimately bind the pages into a cohesive sequence that they like, which may or may not tell a story.

In each Round each of the four prompts must appear somewhere on the 2 pages. That could be 2 on each page or 3 and 1 or all 4 on one page, as long as they all appear, at least once, in some form. You might write a brief note to your partner about your choices if you like.

Round 1: Mustard, Rope, Boat House, Colonel

The other rounds will be: - Round 2: Peacock, Hand tool, Kitchen, Officer Round 3: Scarlet, Heavy Object, Bedroom, Dame Round 4: Green, Gun, Great Hall, Minister Round 5: White, Knife, Shrubbery, Agent Round 6: Plum, Poison, Library, Professor

You are encouraged to use your imagination and think outside the box. Each prompt can be interpreted in several different ways. You don't have to follow the obvious path.

Your pages can be painted, drawn, stamped, stitched, collaged, embellished whatever you wish. Make them great. Remember this is ART journaling, have fun and be creative.

No stickers and just writing the prompt words please.

The pages will be A5, portrait orientation, made of sturdy paper or card. (Do not put chunky embellishments on the leftmost 2cm of the page as they will need to be bound later). The backs of the pages should not be left plain but have at least some colour/decoration and your name, Swapbot name, swap name, date and location.

There is a long lead time on the first Round but this will be shortened for the others. I'll also run a catch-up round if needed.

If you have any questions please message me.

pheeew ! this involves "brain work " :( But I'll be in it ....... Don't for get I'll be away in May Anyone reading this ....in case you might be my potential partner I will do and send the swap/s I miss ASAP

question: do we wait until we receive our partners pages before we do the next round .... to follow on from their interpretation ... or can we go ahead at our own pace and do our 12 pages ?

Good question cafras. I had thought we could do our pages as inspiration strikes us because for me at least it's labour intensive and I need a good head start. Different swap partners each round means you might not get the same ideas. I've begun to collect ideas and jot them down.

cafras 03/12/2014 #

Taa, like you I need to gather my ideas and jot them down which I've started to do. My plan is to make one journal of my own and one from the swaps......

Again another techiqial one looks like that's all we will be getting from now on so I need to rethink do I need this stress.

it is named well as I have not a clue what it is all about. I put it into the 2 hard basket.

Sounds like a great swap, Cluedo is one of my fave boardgames lol. I freak out a bit with these sort of swaps so I might just play along at home to build my confidence.

I have always love Cluedo this is going to be such fun to create with :)

I've at a ball creating my pages today, so much so I'm going to have to create a set for myself, hope my swap partner loves them as much. I'll be able to post off once I know who to this week :)
