O: A - Z Marine Life ATC Series: H - Humpback

This is the eighth in our A - Z Marine Life ATC series for this group. In this series, we'll celebrate the biodiversity of our world's oceans by creating an ATC of a sea creature whose common name begins with the appropriate letter of the alphabet!

For this round, create an ATC that depicts the HUMPBACK WHALE. For this swap, you may choose to depict the distinct fluke, head, or entire animal any way you wish. You may stamp, collage, draw, paint - whatever method you choose, although please do NOT slap a sticker or printout on an ATC blank and call it a day! Put your best foot forward and create something you'd love to receive.

Future ATCs...

If you're planning ahead, the next few ATCs will include:

I - Icon Sea Star

J - Jolly Green Giant (psst...it's a super cool nudibranch!)

K - Knobbly Periwinkle Shell

In a Nutshell:

• 1 ATC to 1 partner

• Create an ATC that depicts the Humpback Whale (fluke, head, or entire animal). You may draw, paint, collage, or stamp out your ATC design but please NO STICKER SLAPPING.

• This is sender's choice so you can start creating now and have it ready to go when partners are assigned!

• Your ATC must be 2.5"x3.5" (64mmx89mm).

• It must be created using a sturdy backing that will stand up to the artistic media you've chosen to use.

• It must be sent in a protective sleeve or small envelope of some sort.

The Administrivia

• Include the swap name as well as your username somewhere in the envelope. Yes, this is a requirement...

• Send on time. Rate promptly upon receipt. Sending late without communication warrants a 3 rating and removal from the group. Not rating or having to be chased for a rating also warrants removal from the group. Communicate and rate.

• Rate according to the Swap-Bot Rating Criteria. Failure to rate your partner or to rate correctly will result in your removal from this group.

• If you are going to be late sending, make sure you let your partner and me know prior to the send-by date.

• Hearts are purely at the discretion of the rater.

• If you flake, you will be removed immediately from this group.

• If you are flaked on, let me know. I will angel this swap after you rate a 1.
