This swap is for hand drawn/hand painted cards of Will-o'-Wisp / Forest Guides and Spirits!

A little info about the will-o'-wisp, or ignis fatuus, it's an atmospheric ghost light seen by travelers at night, especially over bogs, swamps or marshes. It resembles a flickering lamp and is said to recede if approached, drawing travelers from the safe paths! Some Scottish legends said that the will o' the wisp would lead you to your fate and that they are spiritual, ethereal beings that represent past lives. They have the appearance of small floating bright blue-colored lights.

For this swap you can make your own Will-o'-Wisp, Forest Spirit, Forest Guide, I included a few examples I found off of Google Images for reference. It can be just the will-o'-wisp/spirit/guide or you can include an animal and/or human in the scene.
*** Not my art.
***No plain white backgrounds please.

General info:

- ATCs should be the standard size of 2.5" x 3.5" on sturdy card and cut as straight as possible.
- Create cards that you are proud to sign your name to and would love to receive!
- Send each card in individual protective sleeves. Penny sleeves are great.
- Put your name, username, location, the date, swap name on the back of each card.
- Please PM me for my address when you're ready to send your cards.
- A hostess card would be greatly appreciated and loved forever, but is not required.
