Complementary Cats HandPainted/HandDrawn - Due February 27
This swap is full.
Swap Due Date: February 27, 2023
Please note I am hosting from Australia so allow three weeks for your cards to arrive if you live outside Australia.
Signup/Withdraw Date: Anytime, but please communicate
Number of ATCs: 3 for 3
Number of Participants: 12
Medium: Hand painted/hand drawn. Found Poetry can be added.
Let's play with some colour theroy and get back to the colour wheel.
For this swap you will need to create your ATCs using a set of complementary colours and make them all about cats. Add some found poetry if you would like too.
The theroy says:
Complementary Colours.
Two colors that are on opposite sides of the color wheel. This combination provides a high contrast and high impact color combination – together, these colors will appear brighter and more prominent.
Some inspiration for you....

Card guidelines:
~~ This is a 3 for 3 card trade.
~~ Cards need to measure 2.5" x 3.5" and must have a sturdy base to make it a “card”. (If you are new to ATC’s and swaps, please check the FAQ section of this website for more guidance.)
~~ Protect your card in individual vinyl sleeves.
~~ Label the back of your cards with this swap name, your username, your real name, date, and location.
~~ Cards must be original and unique. No re-swapped cards, no commercially printed or reprinted cards or cards you have sent for prior swaps.
~~ Please share your finished cards in this thread and in the gallery and tell us more about them and how you got to them. We all love to get inspired by your lovely creations and process. Also comment on those you like. We can all use some motivation.
~~ A hostess card is not required, but will be appreciated and treasured if you choose to include one. Please don’t let the hostess card be a factor in your decision to play or not play.
Mailing:
~~ PM me for my address when your cards are ready to send. Give yourself enough time for them to arrive, at least a week or two for those in Australia. At least three weeks or more if outside
Australia. Cards which do not arrive by the deadline will have to be returned.
