Description:

In your personal life, you seem to do so much for so many, yet receive so little from so few. This swap is for a collage featuring YOU, YOU, YOU!

Here's how to play:

  1. You will create 1 (one) collage for 1 (one) partner.

  2. Carefully read your partner's profile.

  3. Your collage must... a. Cleverly display their first name b. Somehow incorporate their swapbot name c. Artistically feature the things your partner likes via any medium or form of art d. Include your signature (very small) somewhere on the collage.

  4. For hearts, add an "extra" in the package that your partner could use in a future collage project (as you have probably gathered, I loooove collages and will host many, many, more collage swaps!)

The fine print: Open to internationals. Must have been rated on at least 2 "snail mail" swaps. Email swaps do not count. Must have at least a 4.8 rating. MUST HAVE A FULL PROFILE! Have Fun With This Swap!

is there a size requirement for the collage?

vintageartchic 02/23/2008 #

Since you've asked, I'll let you suggest which size we should go for. I usually make 8 x 10s...which size do you prefer?

alifromourpatch 02/23/2008 #

I've never made a collage for a swap before ~ that size sounds great!!

Hi, what sort of board/paper/card do we make it on? thanks btw can newbies join? thanks xxx

vintageartchic 03/15/2008 #

Sure BeOriginal you can join if you have been rated on two swaps already and your rating score must at least be 4.8. I would love to have you join this swap. You can use cardboard or cardstock. You can dress the board up with scrapbook type paper. Your collage should at least be sized 8x10. While you're waiting for your partner to be assigned, practice by making one for yourself. You'll have so much fun, you won't hardly be able to wait for your partner to be assigned! Have Fun!

Hi chickie, I'm really happy to on board!

what's 8x10?

if inches, whats is the size in centimeters?

vintageartchic 03/20/2008 #

Come on Math wizards...if in the US we would measure this as an 8x10 collage...what would it be in centimeters?

Ok "tex82" let me ask my carpenter friend...I'll get back with you!

Hi jukejan!

I'm so very glad that you were able to sign up for this one! I'm on pins and needles waiting for midnight to strike so I can push the button, so our partners will be assigned!

Imagine, a "mini shrine" made just for us!

I've got tons of ideas...can't WAIT 'til midnight!

Does it have to be a collage made on paper...?

tex82 03/25/2008 #

That was ironic or something?

Well, I'm from Brazil and we dont LEARN about inchies. So, I'll ask my own question

8x10 "thumbs" is the same of 20,32x25,4cm. But I'll round this to 20x25cm, I think my partner won't mind.
