Rules:

- You must be willing to ship internationally. If you cannot, please do not sign up.
- We'll be making two (2) bookmarks and receiving two (2) bookmarks.
- All bookmarks should be shipped in plastic protectors or ziplock bags to keep them from getting damaged.
- The bookmarks can be made with any medium, including computers.
- Please ship on time. If you run into troubles or delays, PM this account ASAP.
- Please put your screen name on the back of the bookmark so the recipient knows who you are.
- PM this account to let us know when you've shipped off your bookmarks.
- Please post a brag post in the art forum, so we can ensure you have received.
- The swap is secret, so we won't reveal anything and ask that you not reveal anything until your cards have been received.
- This is not a rule, but if you could scan your finished bookmarks JUST IN CASE they get lost in the mail, that would be great. That way you could print out the scanned version and mail that out as a second option.

Bookmarks!? I can totally do that! At least I'll try. I may need some info on how to do that. ^^

I'll try to PM you sometime this evening after work or possibly this weekend. I'd love to try. I just completed the halloween/autumn ATC and it was a BLAST!

Ooh! I can make fairly legit bookmarks; they're fun I may have to sign up for this!

it's not hard to do, actually. the easiest way would be to cut a piece of cardboard (not too thin and not too thick) into a bookmark size, then do the artwork on it. for a good protection, you can either laminate it or stick self-adhesive film to either side of the bookmark, which works as some sort of lamination too. ^^ if you like, you can make a hole at the top and pull a ribbon through it.

huh. This is a fun idea! I will be thinking thinking.

ooh I love book marks, let me see if I can get a few projects finished this weekend so I will have time for these!

Aaah I'd love to, but I don't have any references :S Maybe next year then.

I would love to do this but I haven't done any trading or selling recently. :/ Maybe next year.

Wooo I am signing up. Or at least attempting.

I make bookmarks all the time, so it would be nice to share them with
people from all over the world...and such. xD

Ooooo I've been wanting to do a pony bookmark, and I eve have some bookmark tassels!

yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes! this might get me more motivated to pick up reading XD (I have tons of books I want to read, but I never find myself the time D: )

I will be entering! I have some cardstock that I'll be drawing on and I might be able to have my mom laminate it at her work I bet I could make a pretty good tassle too! I have bookmarks from Calico and Sirithfin and I use them all the time!

Ooh, bookmarks sound like fun! I will definitely be PMing my form soon...

PM'ed my form. Are there specific dimensions that we need to work to with the bookmarks?

Ah yeah tha's a really good question. Last time I did mine, but I got the dimensions online and it came out quite a bit wider than what I was used to seeing on a bookmark.
