New swaps
July 15th, 2006For someone who said she wanted to reduce the amount of collaborative work she undertakes, in order to concentrate on her own art, I’ve just managed to sign up for a whole heap of stuff!
I’ve just announced a new ABrr, with the first posting date in September, and a ‘bit on the side’ ATC swap, due at the end of July. Glynis is running the Monthly Challenge altering finger puppets, due in mid-August, and I’ve signed up to make a page in a calendar, on APA, due at the end of October. Oh yes, let’s not forget the Collage rr!
I’ve heard/thought of two really good suggestions for swaps this week, and although my hands are full, maybe they are something we can do later. I thought I’d better write the ideas down before I forget them ![]()
The first idea was maybe something we’ll do for a monthly swap, or a ‘bit on the side’. People alter something and send it to me, I take photos and upload them without saying who made what and then we vote or say who we think made each item. I think it will be interesting to see how well we know each others’ styles. There are some people we think we know the sort of work they do, others who are maybe newer to the group, that are ‘dark horses’ as far as thir own individual style goes.
The second idea sounds brilliant, and I’m sure will be great fun to do. It is a round robin, maybe a tag book or a board boook or something like that. Each person’s spread shouls reflect the weather when they recieve the book. Simple but intriguing I think - LOL!
