Description:

This swap is for a mermaid paper art doll! We'll be creating brad articulated mermaid paper dolls using these templates: http://www.theenchantedgallery.com/template2.html and http://www.theenchantedgallery.com/template.html. You'll create a mermaid using those templates on a sturdy paper (cardstock, watercolor paper, paper board, ect) using whatever media you'd like. Feel free to incorporate fabric, decorative paper, trims, beads, or the like. If you'd like to just use paints, pencils, and flat media, go for it! We'll be creating our mermaids based on our swap partner's likes, so please wait until you get your partner to start creating! I'll be opening up a flickr page so we can post our finished mermaids!

For this swap, you will need:

A fully filled out profile with lots of details including likes A rating of 5

You will send: 1 finished paper doll to 1 partner *Small extras are encouraged (seashells, beads, trims, etc), but are not required. Depending on how you make your doll, you can probably get away with sending it in a regular mailer.

Here are some examples of work done on this template: https://www.etsy.com/transaction/84662446? https://www.etsy.com/transaction/72125251? https://www.etsy.com/transaction/76562887?

I want this to be newbie friendly, so if you've never done a swap before, please contact me. I'll be checking to make sure you have a fully filled out profile. Please don't join this swap if you plan on flaking. I understand that situations can arise, so if that happens, contact me. I do not want to have to angel, but I can. IMPORTANT: I want this swap to be friendly to all users, so please be respectful when it comes to nudity. I would rather you not include nudity at all if it's possible. I want this swap to be inclusive. The template I'm using in this swap is from http://www.theenchantedgallery.com/paperdolls.html.

I am interested, but a 4.0 rating is pretty low so watching for now.

In case there are any real tech-newbies, live links for templates http://www.theenchantedgallery.com/template2.html and http://www.theenchantedgallery.com/template.html and the examples: from etsy, and, and also.

Lady- I raised the limit. You're right-4 is a bit low. It's been a while since I did a swap, so I had to go review the numbering system.

Babydoll- I opened this up internationally!
