So I was about two seconds too slow on the first round (which started yesterday--heehee), and since it's such a small swap, rackycoo said that it would be just fine to do another round alongside the first. So, here we go! And do check out the original at: http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=238508.0Swap name: Altered Ancestor Round 2

Details of swap:
In this very small swap, participants will email a photo of an ancestor (or just someone who's got a great look about them!) to each of the other 5 participants. Each person will then use the photo in a little work of art (no bigger than 6" by 6" on any one side), and mail it back to the sender. At the end of the swap, each person will have a set of 6 (you have to do one yourself!) altered images of their ancestor that they can frame separately or together.

People's preferences:
JoyousBohemian:
size: no real preference.
theme or color scheme: just no really silly stuff, please. I'm open to most anything, as long as it's respectful!
thickness: go wild!
lisateacher:
size: creator's choice
theme or color scheme: nope!
thickness:
crafty_dame:
size: variety is great, though probably not too small - so maybe at least 1 side at least 4"? (ie, not as small as an atc or anything!)
theme or color scheme: nope! i generally like dark images, but i'm cool with a more vintagey style as well
thickness: i'm super cool with thickness, and tend to have issues doing "paper only" - i MUST add other stuff! how does everyone feel about thickness?
the_trademarks:
size: 6" by 6", I really want them to be all the same size
theme or color scheme: Nothing that comes to mind. I just want it to be pretty and not creepy.
thickness: whatever thickness people want to make.
neverseenblue:
size: 4”x6” or 6”x6” would be fine – I think a variety would be fun
theme or color scheme: I don’t have any particular themes in mind, but as for color I really like brown/green, brown/blue combinations.
thickness: Thickness is not a problem for me.
squirrelgirl:
size: I like that 6x6 size
theme or color scheme: my family is Hispanic so any Mexican influences or themes would be nice.
thickness: different thicknesses are okay
I'll be sending out everyone's addresses and e-mail addresses shortly.
