You may also choose to include the date, your real name and location, and any other info you feel is relevant.
Theme Guidelines:
Easy/Regular Themes: Easy themed: it is easy to think up a card, usually with no research: for example dragons, dogs, houses, flowers, etc. Regular themes: require a little more thought and perhaps a little research but are not difficult to find a drawing reference or collage image for. Where a generic dog would be an easy theme a specific breed would be a regular theme. If house would be an easy theme, log cabin would be a regular theme.
Challenging Themes: require research and reference. Examples are real people, scenes or characters from books, movies, tv shows, video games etc. Beyond generic dog, or specific dog breed, but perhaps “draw MY dog” or something more obscure such as dogs owned by presidents. A specific artist or style, an exact location. Themes that are difficult to interpret like illustrate a song, poem or quote. It’s always helpful to include a link to an internet reference. Any questions on where your theme lies just ask.
