THEME: JAPANESE (OR CHINESE) WRITING, CHARACTERS.

I love to make kimono design on ATCs, that's why I decided to start series of themed kimono design: every swap with another kimono design, with different materials in a different theme. Exciting, is it not?!

I do not have to explain an ATC, as you must have made at least 10 before joining this swap. The picture shows the design of the kimono this time. You can change the design inside the kimono, but not the shape, the silhouette.

Because this is the first one, we keep it "simple", we only use paper, nothing else but paper.

This swap (and all swaps in this series) will consist of three parts:

1) create an ATC kimono design themed Japanese or Chinese characters, can be one character, three or hundred, your choice and put it in a sleeve or small-fitting envelope;

2) create an envelope in the same style, normal size; consider the envelope as important as the ATC;

3) we do not send the ATC in a flaccid, flabby envelope (everything arrives wrinkled); we put a nice self-made fitting reinforcement in it, FYI -- a notecard, postcard or something else, yes indeed: in the same style.

By the same style -- I mean the same colors, perhaps the same paper, perhaps the same design, your choice. Of course: no sticker slapping.

You must have a well filled profile and successfully completed at least 10 type 3 swaps with ATC's.

Rating Requirements: No 1's, no unexplained 3's in the last 3 months. Sorry, no newbies. This is not a profile based swap, but do read your partner's profile, (perhaps it inspires you) you need to know the dislikes.

I will be checking profiles and I reserve the right to ban anyone from this swap if I think there will be a problem. I will angel if necessary, but please, contact always your partner first before coming to me.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate, please ask them below and I will answer as quickly as possible.

Enjoy being creative, I am looking forward to creating this swap.

Extra note: you do not have to draw the characters-or one character- yourself, if you like to draw yourself that's fine too of course. You can use a bookpage, a magazine, a postcard, whatever. You can even get the writing from internet and print it in a nice way. Any questions, please ask.
