It Happened on Your Birthday ATCs

Swap Coordinator:dracoiratus (contact)
Swap categories: Paper Goods  Crafts  Artist Trading Card (ATC) 
Number of people in swap:8
Location:Other
Type:None
Last day to signup/drop:April 6, 2008
Date items must be sent by:May 19, 2008
Number of swap partners:2
Description:

In this swap you will create ATCs based on events that happened on your partner's birthday.

Create 2 ATCs for each of 2 partners for a total of 4 ATCs.

When you join the swap, if you wish to confess to your age then put the year you were born in the comments.

Once partners are assigned, check the comments for your partners to see if they've put the year they were born. If they did then look for things that happened on their exact day of birth, otherwise just go with the date and month.

As an example, my birthday is April 10th, and on that day in 1912 the Titanic set sail, so my partner could make a Titanic ATC for me.

On the back of the ATC make sure you include the swap name, your name (real or swap-bot id) and a brief description of the event depicted.

Because you can't start making these until partners are assigned I've tried to allow plenty of time to get the creative juices flowing.

This is a international swap, newbies welcome with completed profiles, otherwise no swappers with a rating of less than 4.5, and no no-sends in the last 6 months. I will be checking and dropping before assigning partners.

This is a super great idea! My swap calendar is full for the next two months but I hope you will host this again so I can join!

Ty :) I'm sure I could be persuaded to run another one in the future.

My birthday is June 15, 1984. This is such a rad swap idea!

Oops, I just received a message saying that partners were assigned and I noticed I forgot to add my birthday in the Comments section. September 13 for me :o)
