Description:

Alright, alright...I'm taking some poetic license with this one unless I hear an uproar! I'm combining blue and indigo into one big happy swap.

I found that when I took close-ups and cropped them to ATC size (3 1/2" X 2 1/2"), one color was very dominant. For this swap you will take close-up photos of BLUE (and indigo) items.

Cut the photos to ATC size (3 1/2" X 2 1/2"), back them with cardstock, and write what they are on the back with your name etc.

You will be sending 3 BLUE (and indigo) close-up ATC's each to 3 partners. That will give us a full page of each color as we go along. They look great so far!

Of course this is International!

It is also fun to post pictures here..I'd love to see them!

Red Tape* I am very serious about ratings! (Serious, but not crazy!) In order to participate you must have at least a 4.7 rating. Newbies are welcome, but please email me to let me know you are serious and fill out your profile. It's not fair to do the work and not get anything in return.

It's also really nice to note here when you send and receive your ATC's.

Most of all...Have Fun!

Hello, Hello....are we sending 3 as usual, just combining blue and indigo or 3 of each? :P

FarStarr 06/27/2007 #

Just 3 Atc's to each person..photographers choice as to whether they are blue or indigo. I really didn't think I would find enough indigo to do it by itself..

animalchatter 06/27/2007 #

Oh, and I thank you for this blue/indigo FarStarr! I have been worried all this time that I would have to skip the indigo part of this series for the same reason...yippee!

Maddy 06/27/2007 #

Yeay thanks Mandy, I was having trouble separating the 2 colours... even looked at a real rainbow for inspiration!

Karenay 06/27/2007 #

Yea, me too! I was wondering "what the heck is Indigo supposed to look like?" Glad I don't have to skip it.

Indigo was inserted into the named colour sequence for the rainbow because 7 was thought to be a significant number so it was felt the rainbow must have 7 colours, not 6. In reality, there are no individual colours, just a gradual shift around the colour wheel, which is usually divided into the 3 primaries (red, yellow, blue) separated by the secondaries (orange, green, purple) - no indigo.

The indigo of the rainbow is not even the colour given by indigo dye as it is usally used. Think of indigo-dyed jeans - the blue tends toward green, not towards purple.

my partners will be getting three of blue and three of indigo as i took my pictures before when i thought we would have two seperate swaps.

FarStarr 07/ 2/2007 #

Wow Angi! You are so efficient :)...What do you want to take pictures of next? I was thinking of a metallic close-up photo ATC swap...

yowell 07/10/2007 #

what about the colours that didn't make it into the rainbow? Pink, Turquoise, black, white etc? they'll get a complex you know!

FarStarr 07/10/2007 #

Well, we don't want them to feel left out now, do we? I do have white in mind. There are a lot of interesting white things out there. I'm a little worried about black...we'd have to be careful to make sure you can actually identify the object....

FarStarr 07/13/2007 #

Hi All, If you can believe it, I'm off for another mini vacation. This time to Boothbay Harbor, Maine. So...if you need me I'll be back on Weds. Mandy

Hi FarStarr, Sewcool72 & Karenay, yours have been winging their way to you since Monday in N Z, I hope you enjoy them. Sorry I cut one wrong and so it is a narrow photo on the coloured background but it was too late to get it reprinted so I hope it's OK. Hugs Angel Faery Kathleen :-)
