Description:

This swap is easy & fun!

Find a picture that you like from a magazine and doodle over it to make it look like your own. Alter it in any other way you would like it as well. You can use any embellishments or mediums that you would like, or none if you prefer. The one requirement is that you somehow doodle over the image. For example, I like to use black uni-ball pens over images and then put them on coordinating patterned papers.

You can do as little or as much as you would like to the picture as long as you make it look different from it's original.

Send this to your partner in the mail in anyway you feel. Whether that be as a postcard, in an envelope, framed, whatever. Get creative, or stay simple. It's really your call.

This is sender's choice. If you are offended easily, please note so in the comment section or send your partner a PM when partners are announced.

As this is any sort of magazine picture, and sender's choice, nudity and adult content are allowed unless specified by your partner.

The only way you can be rated less than a heart for this swap is if you do not alter your image in anyway, and if you do not use a magazine image.

I will angel, but I hope there would be no flakers in this group.

This is sender's choice, so you can start working on your piece now!

I can;t believe you made this sswap. I was thinking of hosting the exact same idea a la Ghost World but I was afraid people wouldn't get it or join etc. awesome !

Cool! I've been wanting to host it for awhile now. I figured the group was a good place to try it out...so far not as many people interested as I would hope...but that won't ruin the fun for me! :-P

I'm dropping from the swap because I didn't understand right about doodle part....so I already made something but I altered the magazine picture with collage and only "doodle" a little in the hair and faceline.....

Not a problem MrsHonniB! Let your creativity flow! I would never want to limit anyone. "Doodling" just a little is acceptable! Just alter it so that it looks much different than the original.
