Croc & Croc Hunter ATC or Bookmark

In a few days, it'll be four years since we lost Steve Irwin. He was kind of crazy, but crazy awesome, wholly dedicated to his passion, and did more to educate and encourage people about wildlife and wildlife conservation than anyone in decades. He was controversial, but a lot of us loved him--and his crocs. I've been a wildlife rehabber for three and a half years, in no small part due to his influence. (And yes, I've been known to exclaim, "Crikey, she's a beaut!" or "Look out, he's heeeooouuuuge!" when picking up a baby possum.)

So let's celebrate his legacy the Swap-Bot way!

• You'll send one ATC or bookmark each to two partners. Sender's choice, but it never hurts to look at your partner's profile.

• The ATC/bookmark can be about Steve, his family, his show, his crocodiles, or crocodiles in general. Basically anything tasteful (eg, no stingrays jokes) that makes you think fondly of Steve.

• The ATC must be of your own making. No sending on an ATC someone already sent you and claiming you made it! If you have one someone else made you want to pass on as an extra, that's fine, but please leave the original maker's information intact.

• ATCs, must be be 2.5" by 3.5" or vice versa. Bookmarks can be any size. Both should have a base that is no less than cardstock thickness; durability is key, especially for bookmarks.

• Use any method and elements you like to make it. Painting, drawing, stamping, collage, whatever. (Anything computer printed should be high quality printing.)

• If you want to use Steve Irwin quotes, here's a pretty good source for some.

• No sticker/stamp slapping! You can use either of course, but don't just slap a stamp/cutout/sticker on a sheet of paper and call it done. We're artists and craftsmen here, put some love into it! :)

• 4.8 minimum; please PM me to explain any recent 1's or 3's.

• Newbies welcome with at least 5 completed mail swaps, 10 positive ratings and a decently filled out profile.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. Thanks!
