ATC SWAP: May - Water Color/Acrylic Paint

Theme for this month is Paint: Water Color, Acrylic, anything.

As with the monthly card swap, there will be no sign ups for this ATC swap so if life gets in the way, no worries.

This is a 10 for 9 swap ATC swap (one for your gracious hostess). No hard and fast rules so any craft items work. :creating: Only requirement is that you have fun and get them to me on time.

As usual send a SASE to return them in. If you want me to reuse your shipping envie, just put it on the outside. If you are sending more than 1 months set (ie next month is FABRIC) just include a return envie for that month too.

I am pretty excited about trying this one. Next month makes me a little nervous. Fabric...I will have to put my thinking cap on for that one.

We (the PAOists) picked the monthly themes the end of last year. They can be changed at any time if there is not enough interest in any given month. We would just need some input. I am really looking forward to Nov and Dec.

Here are the rest of the months themes..

Jun - Fabric
July - Monochromatic
Aug - Black and White
Sep - Wild Animals
Oct - Music
Nov - Trees
Dec - Flourishes

I just ordered new watercolors from Dick Blick (and some glue!) and I've been looking for an excuse to play with them. And the fabric ATC sounds intriguing. I might have to get in on these! I'm so glad this is a no pressure swap.

I have tried to post here all afternoon. Why this thread is giving me trouble I do not know.
Anyhow, I started these last week and just have to finish them up. They were fun.

The deadline is usually the 28th but we can certainly extend it. There are currently only 2 players. I would love to have you join in.
