Description:

Here's a chance to play with color in a little different way.

Monochromatic simply means one color. So, for this swap you will make an ATC that is all one color (shades of a color and only that color - but you pick the color).

To give everyone more opportunity to make and receive more than just one color, let's have 10 partners. I've left time for you to work on them between sign up and mailing date.

If you don't already have your favorite colors listed in your profile, you can leave them in the comments section below. Please note that this does not require the artist to use that color, but provides them with the opportunity to make something special for you.

s 04/ 5/2007 #

Open to any colours...

MerriAmelie 04/ 5/2007 #

i am open to receiving any and all colors.... but i think i will be making mine in teals/turquoises, since that seems to be my favorite color of papers to buy lately!!!

nniiccoollee 04/ 6/2007 #

I like any colors too! :)

blueackerson 04/ 9/2007 #

Is the swap one ATC for each of 10 different people? And my favorite color is Turquoise, but any other color is fine too. Rosalie

squintgrad 04/10/2007 #

Yes, 1 ATC to each of your 10 partners.

I like all colors, but my favorites are earth or jewel tones. I seem to rotate favorites depending on my mood, so really I,m ok with anything.

I like silver, black, and dark colors... but any will work for me.

squintgrad 04/18/2007 #

personally I'm looking forward to getting a variety of colors - it's always fun to see other people's approaches to a topic.

Happy crafting everyone,

Stephanie

My favorite color --- name one --- I love them all. Give me a box of crayolas and I am happy to just look at them - can't tell you how many boxes I have. I just love color! Thanks, Joan

squintgrad 04/20/2007 #

just one card to each for this swap (of course, you can always aim for hearts and send more)

TwistersMom 04/22/2007 #

My favorite colors are purples, black, yellows oranges and red, but I like all colors.

ksj1717 04/22/2007 #

I'm a little covered up right now...afraid to commit. Please do this one again sometime. Thanks. :)

sewcool72 04/23/2007 #

I have 2 more to make. I have to say that I have never done any monochromatic before and these are the most difficult I have tried. Nothin' like a challenge! Can't wait to see what everyone did. Rhonda

MerriAmelie 04/23/2007 #

my cards are going out this afternoon! :) hope everyone enjoys them!

sewcool72 04/24/2007 #

finished! Going to the Post Office this morning. I hope everyone likes them

deedeenet 04/26/2007 #

Rhonda W., thank you for the beautiful purple ATC. Love all of the textures.

grandmaroro 04/26/2007 #

SewCool72 - You may never have done monochromatic before but you did an excellent job. Simply lovely. Thank you so much. Joan

SewCool72 - You may never have done monochromatic before but you did an excellent job. Simply lovely. Thank you so much. Joan P.S. The little envelope was just the finishing touch - loved it.

received some really cool cards from Rhonda Walker and Janet Burns today, Thanks!

sewcool72 04/27/2007 #

Received cards today from Dana and Alleycat. Both are very unique with two totally different mediums. I LOVE them. Being relatively new to ATC's and having no idea about doing anything monochromatic, I am very pleased. Can't wait to get the rest of them. Thank You!!! Rhonda

Cnvingltlbtch 04/28/2007 #

Mine are on there way out to my partners.

Woman Trip thank you for your package today. I've never received anything form your part of the world before! Even the envelope was a sensation with the stamps!

Thank you for your ATCs and your extra goodies. I hope we swap again.

sleepingrover2010 05/ 1/2007 #

Hello Everyone,

My favorite colors are purple and blue. However, I would really like avariety of ATCs, so any colors are fine for this swap.

Barb

redwing480 05/ 1/2007 #

cindynvb --I got your card today, interesting technique, Thanks!

deedeenet 05/ 3/2007 #

I signed up for this swap hoping it would help me with color. Man was I wrong. I am really color challenged! I'm relying on the ATCs I receive to help me to figure it out!

deedeenet 05/ 4/2007 #

Elizabeth, thank you for your green ATC - very sparkly!

jessica 05/ 9/2007 #

I may be lite with my swaps. My check did not come in yet. I have to wait to reissue it. I have stamps on the ones for my US partnes, but not for the over seas ones. I will def. mail out the US ones by the 22nd however. Please excuse this.

Basilika 05/11/2007 #

Thank you to Womentrip, Dana, squintgrad and Alleycat from whom I've recieved cards so far.

Reb--I received your card today, very pretty, Thanks

deedeenet 05/19/2007 #

wow, swap=bot has a new rating program, we can rate early but the system won't show it until after the swap closes. This is really helpful. thanks swapbot

TwistersMom 05/24/2007 #

I recieved a very nice atc from Dohar Qatar??? that was what the return name said, but when I went to rate her, or him, this name is not on my list of partners to recieve from. Does anyone know his or her swap bot name????

jessica 06/ 1/2007 #

I was informed one of my atcs I sent out went missing. So if you haven't gotten one from me please let me know asap so I can remake it. Thanks!

deedeenet 06/ 4/2007 #

I've rated all of the ATCs that I've received. If you sent one to me and I've not rated you, please contact me so we can sort this out.

Thanks to the swap hostess for a challenging swap!

grandmaroro 07/ 1/2007 #

Hey Cookiebear,

Thanks for letting me know that you received the replacement card. I can't imagine where the original one went, but, at least the second one reached you.
