It's All About ME: Chunky Page #3 - My Family

This is the third in a series of chunky book pages about YOU! In the end, you will have a little book that's very unique and specific to you & your life. (If you wish, you can definitely make this about someone else, to collect pages & assemble for a gift). Each month, we will have a theme, and will make a page on that theme that is partner-specific. For many of these themes, we will need to message our receiving partner for information. It's a little challenge as artists, and happily, also a way to get to know one another a little better.

Joining one month does not require you to join every month. Likewise, missing some does not mean you can't join in the fun.

This month, we will do "My Family". Once partners are assigned, you will message or email your partner with information she needs to complete your page ... names, ages, etc., physical descriptions or even photos. How you define your family is entirely up to you.

For all pages in this series, please make the overall page size 4.5"x4", with the artwork portion being 4x4. The other 1/2" is for binding and should be left blank (this will be on the left hand side of the artwork). Pages should be sturdy enough to easily support the embellishments used. You may choose the media used - collage, assemblage, original artwork, whatever you wish. Please ensure that there are some embellishments on the page which make it "chunky", not 2-D. The back of your page will be highly visible when the book is bound, so please make it neat and presentable. No need to actually decorate it, but if it's repurposed cereal box or something, then please cover it with a piece of paper. The back should also bear the title of your piece (theme), and your swapbot name - real name is optional at your discretion - and the date. Feel welcome to add any other info you wish.

Any member of this group who is in good standing may join the swap. If there is anyone questionable, I reserve the right to drop them.

This is a busy time of year for many - as such, I will put a long deadline on this page (normally it's one month or so) in order that you may fit it in where it works for you.
