Get things off your chest before Christmas! If you don't know what Post Secret is, here's the official site: http://postsecret.blogspot.com/ And here's the wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostSecret Post secrets can be confessions of anything from embarassing foibles, to deathly serious deeds. For this swap, create an ATC (2.5 x3.5) representing something you have never told anyone, or which you feel you need to confess or own up to. You don't have to explain what the image means if you don't want to. Alternately, you can write it on the card itself, or send an accompanying note. Sharing a secret with a stranger can be a positive and freeing experience - but if you have doubts, feel free to create something completely abstract without offering an explanation. This is a chance to make something personal, powerful and artistic. IMPORTANT: Unlike Post Secret, you will not be completely anonymous, so think carefully about what you choose to send: Please do not reveal anything illegal, which would oblige your partner to pass your details to the cops. Please do not take advantage of your partner's trust by revealing his/her secret either on this website, or using their details to reveal it to their friends and family. Please think carefully about your secret, in case your partner does turn out to be manipulative scum. USUAL RULES APPLY 1) ATCs are 3.5 x 2.5 inches, good quality and non-flimsy, in any style or medium, but please take time to create something special and DON'T FLAKE. This rule especially applies to this swap, where it is likely emotions could run high. Please don't hurt anyone's feelings by creating something shoddy. 2) Everyone is welcome to join, but I will root out people who look dodgy. 3) ONE card to ONE partner. 4) Please be sensitive to any secrets you recieve. |
