Description:

This will be 4 ATCs for 1 partner.

Each ATC will feature one of the 4 elements: Fire, Water, Earth, and Air.

Pretty simple. You can include metaphysical correspondences of the element on your ATC, or just include a picture of the element into your ATC, draw it, etc. Do a theme of it (ex. a picture of the earth, for earth, anything having to do with sand, dirt, shells, trees, etc all represent earth. Hell with fire, lit candles, the sun, etc. can all represent fire. The ocean/sea, rivers, ponds, rain, etc. can represent water. Feathers, planes, birds, smoke, incense, hurricane, they are representations of air since you can't actually draw air itself).

Now for the TWIST!

I will allow you to include ATCs made by someone else. So for example, if you have an ATC you want to pass on that is ocean themed this can be used for your water element. You can make all 4 or pass on 4 or do a combination, but please make sure it accurately fits each theme. DO NOT try and make something up like passing along an ATC featuring a shoe and say it is for earth because shoes walk on the ground. That is just trying to be lazy and force a theme so you don't have to make one.

I'm just allowing the passing on of ATCs to see how it goes since I've never seen this done in other swaps unless it is purely a "pass it on" type swap. So be fair, make or pass along ATCs that are accurate to each theme, and have fun!

PLEASE INCLUDE IN YOUR NOTE WHICH ATC IS FOR WHICH ELEMENT. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT IF YOU ARE PASSING ALONG SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK. Thank you!

i love the twist! thats what artist trading cards are all about they are made to be traded not to just one person but on and on... this is great. maybe we should make this a common thing if it works out.

=) I'm glad you like I just thought it would be interesting, all of the themed swaps I've ever been in you always have to make your own so I thought it would be interesting to switch it up.
