Number of Cards: 3 for 3
Number of Players: Unlimited
Media: Hand-drawn/Hand-painted, light embellishments Ok

Please select 3 different color schemes from the Colors list, and then choose 3 different subject themes from the Themes list. It is your choice which color schemes to use for which themes. As long as the two colors in each of your 3 choices are prominent on your card, you can also use accents of black and white, and even other colors in small amounts. The color scheme choice should be obvious on your card, and any value range can be used, pastel to dark.

You can get pretty creative with this idea, and I tried to make up a theme list which would allow some popular subjects for everyone to choose from. This is a hand-drawn/hand-painted Swap, with “flattish” embellishments allowed. On the back of each card, please write your color scheme choice and your theme choice, along with the usual real name, username, and swap title. An extra “host card” is always appreciated but never necessary.
