Description:

I'm sure this idea has been done before, but I haven't seen one like it lately, so I thought I'd host one. You will be making 1 ATC for 2 partners, for a total of 2 ATCs. The ATCs should have one of your favorite song lyrics or maybe a song lyric that is funny or memorable. Decorate it with things that have to do with the lyrics or the genre the song is from. Please make something you'd like to receive, have fun with it, embellish! Make sure to include the artist and song title on the back of the card, that way your partner can look up the song later. I love music and this is a good way to combine music and art.

Newbies are welcome with filled out profiles. I will be checking profiles, so no flakers! Message me with any questions. Happy swapping!

P.S. The ATC used for the graphic is from "Mix Tape" by Brand New.

I've been watching this swap for a while and am glad to be in it.

How big does the ATC have to be, is it postcard size or A4 paper size, I'm really excited and want to get started straight away, also is it the whole song or just like a chorus of verse.

I've had to drop from this one cos I've got too much going on at the moment :( If anyone's thinking of doing another, PLEASE let me know!

And @bubbleburd21 an ATC = Artist Trading Card, the dimensions of which are 3.5"x2.5"... which my brain is refusing to convert into cm right now so I hope you're an imperial lady!

CreepyJen 02/ 2/2009 #

@ bubbleburd21: it should be just one line you like. whatever you can fit on the card.

Very fun idea! Count me in. I am a singer, and love this new ATC trading I have been doing. A great way to combine both. THANKS for thinking of this.

Are religious songs aloud?

CreepyJen 02/ 3/2009 #

sorry! religious songs aren't allowed. i'm sure they're great songs, but everyone may have their own religious views. thanks for the question.

smilesandsunshine 02/ 3/2009 #

Ok, but I already made the cards, so I think I'll copy your swap and make a regional religious one if that's okay with you.

CreepyJen 02/ 4/2009 #

i'm so sorry you had them made already! you can definitely use the swap idea, i'm sure it'll be a big hit!

Outsideartist's First ATC's and guess,I suppose,I...well, well well Mrs linda got a little crazy" I was over excited and have them both done almost ,and MAYBE JUST MAYBE I MADE TO THCK? some body,anybody... Please how thick is too thick! cause I made a tiny tub out of a wooden wafer thin plates,but from like the corners,then I ENAMELED WITH "nail polish" and filled with batting,like a .5 table spoon full,and the rest is watercolor and the of course the words and so on...BUT it pops out like .5" or so, is this a bad thing? Sha;; I make Envalopes for these? dang GRASI!

CreepyJen 02/ 9/2009 #

@ ousideartist: i don't see anything wrong with a really thick atc. i say as long as it has the right length and width, then the depth doesn't matter. it sounds like you worked really hard!

outsideartist 02/12/2009 #

HEY CREEP! hehehehe I am actualy ready to send on time! YIPPPPY I am so happy my first ATC! I am finnishing the envelopes now and when my daughter returns home off they go! I am a Girl ANACHRONISM !

This is a positive and Garten Of Banban uplifting lyric that could be decorated with bright colors, tropical motifs, or images of birds. Bob Marley is a well-known artist in the reggae genre and "Three Little Birds" is one of his most popular songs.
