Colour Wheel, playing and learning; Open Media - Due 10 Jan 2018
I was tidying (just a little) and came across some little cross stitch hearts I had made when I was doing some colour study, so I decided to cut them up and make them into ATCs. That's done, but I thought it would be nice to do a series of swaps using the Colour Wheel. I won't stipulate colours just explain what the term means for those who need it. If you don’t have a colour wheel, there are lots you can print off free. Here is a link to just one.

This first swap will use a Monochromatic colour scheme. Monochromatic colour schemes are derived from a single base colour and extended using its shades, tones and tints. Tints are achieved by adding white and shades and tones are achieved by adding grey or black. For this swap choose a primary (red, blue, yellow) or secondary (purple, green, orange) colour. You can use paint, pens, fabric, yarn, collage, whatever you like, but try and aim for a range of shades originating from your choice of base colour and only those. You may use black for outlining/drawing. Each card could feature a different base colour as long as the card is monochromatic. For this swap please do not use black as your base colour. That may feature in a later swap (Achromatic).
The cards:
- Each card must be ATC size, exactly 2.5" x 3.5" and on a sturdy base (cardstock, bristol, heavy watercolor paper, chipboard), and sent in its own plastic sleeve.
- Send work into which you put time, imagination and care, and would be happy to receive! I will trade effort for effort so make them your best effort.
- Each card must be original, no copies please.
- Label all cards with at least your real name, AFA username, date, location and name of the swap. A host card is not required but will be a very treasured addition to my growing collection.
Postage/Mailing:
When taping the cards together, just a little washi tape works great to keep them in place when mailing (don’t use ordinary masking tape – it’s a nightmare and ruins the plastic sleeves). Please post in this thread when you are sending your cards out. Some pictures of your efforts would be great inspiration for those still ‘lurking’.
US Players: please send a well concealed $1 in with your cards.
Other International Players: Please send $1 in your envelope if you have them. Failing that PM me for paypal details.
Include a large address label with your address neatly printed. I will provide envelopes.
Please PM me for my address when you are ready to send your cards.
Make sure you allow your cards enough mailing time to get to me, late cards will be returned to the artist, unswapped, at their expense. Lack of communication and lack of ATCs may result in Neutral iTrader. We all understand when life throws unexpected things at us, but please, please communicate.
Players - when you receive your cards for the swap, remember to leave an iTrader for the Host (me) and Rep Points for the people you received cards from – This is optional, but a nice way to say thank you. We all need a little encouragement.
Please write your username and Swap Name on the back of your envelopes.
I will leave iTrader for each player as I receive their cards.
We love eye candy, so do post photos of your cards to the thread for us all to admire.
