Fourth Annual Holiday Art Swap!!! *Swap Cleared - Leave Feedback!*

[HolidayArtSwap]

Welcome to the 4th
Annual Holiday Art Swap!

Last year, we traveled around the world with postcards.  This year, we're going back to a crowd favorite: BOOKMARKS!

Rules:

* The bookmark can be made with any medium, including digital.
* Each person will make a bookmark for only one member.
* Put your screen name somewhere on the bookmark so your partner knows who you are.
* Please mail on time. If you run into troubles or delays, PM this account ASAP.
* Please post a brag in the art forum once you have received your bookmark.
* The swap is secret; we won't reveal anything until the bookmarks are received and ask that you do the same.
* Please take this as seriously as you would any other swap. There can be no drop-outs once the partners have been assigned.  If you have any doubts about meeting the requirements, please don't join.
* Feedback will be left by each swapper for their partner once the swap is completed.

Other considerations:

* Bookmarks should be made with card stock or reinforced, since floppy, flimsy bookmarks are not terribly useful.
* Send your bookmarks in some type of plastic protector and an envelope, so they are not damaged in transit.

Requirements to join:

* You have been an Arena member for 3 months and have at least 100 posts.
* Swappers must have 3 trading or selling references.
* Must be willing to mail internationally. If you can't, please do not sign up.
 
Please PM this account with the following information:

* Screen Name:
* Full (real) name:
* Email address:
* Mailing address (including country):
* Which holiday do you celebrate?  Would you like your postcard themed for that holiday?
* References/feedback:   Please link your Arena feedback and provide the names of three people we can PM for a quick reference check.
* Ponies: Personas and/or Hasbro ponies that you like.  Persona reference pictures are required.
* Anthro art:  Are you good, bad, or indifferent to it?
* Examples of your art:
