Description:

Setting limits, whether they be limits in color, medium, or theme, can sometimes benefit creativity. With that in mind, let's create some monochromatic prints.

For this swap, first create a print(s) using only the color blue. Prints can be made using Gelli plates, homemade gelatin plates, or any other surface you choose. Feel free to use any kind of paper you wish to pull your prints as long as it's either white or blue.

Next, use your print(s) to create an ATC OR a postcard OR a notecard, your choice. You may add any other media/mediums you wish, like rubber stamping, doodling, etc, provided you keep to the blue theme. The envelope for your notecard need not be printed on unless you choose to. Write a little note to your partner on the back of the postcard/inside the notecard.

The nitty-gritty:

  • 1 ATC OR 1 handmade postcard OR 1 handmade notecard for 1 partner (postcard must be sent naked).
  • Use ONLY the color blue to create your print(s). Anything extra added to the ATC/postcard/notecard must also be ONLY blue.
  • Sender's choice in style and theme

I'm always happy to answer any questions, and I welcome suggestions/ideas for future swaps.
