Hello and welcome to the first adult (PG13) ATC drawspace trade. I invite all members holding a membership with drawspace for 30 days or more
to participate..This trade will have guidelines that we MUST adhere too..(Or this trade will be shut down very quickly). The trade cards are to be tasteful, and kept within the theme.

Here are some guidelines if anyone has any questions do not hesitate to contact me personally to clear things up.

1.30 DAY MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED TO JOIN
2.NO SEXUAL ACTS
3.NO GENITALIA
4.NO COMPUTER GENERATED ARTWORK, ALL CARDS MUST BE HAND DRAWN AND MEASURE 2.5 X 3.5 INCHES (standard ATC)

Breast and Bare bottoms are OK.(just remember this is NOT A **** TRADE) this is tastefully done artwork

O.K. now that we got the 'rules' in place lets talk about theme.

With it being March, I thought we should start out the first trade with a St. Patricks' Day theme

Sign up begins today on March 1, and sign up ends on March 7th ..that gives a week for ppl to decide if they are interested ..
Cards must be mailed by April 7th so that gives us plenty of time to create some really nice cards..Please lets do our best work on these cards.

I am going to be hosting two trades this month, this one, and our regular monthly trade as well, you are welcome to join both or just one, keeping in mind that you will have a month to complete each trade from sign up ending date..

you can PM me your address as you sign up (those from the cat trade I still have your address). I shall compile a list and get it out to everyone when sign up ends.

The cards can be women or men what ever you choose, in any medium you choose. just stick to the theme and have fun.

If this trade goes well, perhaps we shall have another.

any questions? simply PM me and I will be glad to help

I'm in. The cat trade looks like so much fun, I want to start trading too.

Looking forward to it.

Great! Thanks for joining.

Hi Kay.
What do you mean by "St Patrick's day theme"?
Sorry, I was not raised in North America, so some concepts are still unknown to me. In my country we celebrate St Patrick's day by remembering irish friends and drinking beer up to the ears.
Regards
Claudio

oh I am sorry Claudio, lets see..clovers, leprechauns, shamrocks, green beer,..

Oh and that is how they celebrate it here too..

Kay, sorry, but now I am really puzzled.

Are we supposed to draw something in the line of pg13 OR something related to St Patrick's?
Or are we supposed to draw something associating both themes, as for example a naked irish elf, with a shamrock covering his genitalia?

Thanks for your answer

Claudio

exactly the example a naked irish elf, with a shamrock covering his genitalia is exactly the idea claudio..a lady perhaps in a beer mug..those kind of things.

A sexy leprachaun

Trees

also bare in mind it does not have to be a full figure, just use the imagination, as i have mentioned before it can be a hand holding say a lovely shamrock pair of panties , or a sexy leg with some green fishnets ....USE THE IMAGINATION.. it should be fun

I am excited ...please do count me in !!!

Done I have so many ideas brewing

Sounds like so much naughty, hilarious fun ! Count me in !

I think so too..welcome..

I will try even I never draw before these naughty figure.Wait and see how my cards are going to be....sexy,pretty or ugly. I will join the trade.
lily

thats great lily, I am glad.

we mustnt get too tied up in the full figure thing.I think it will be fun and creative

we can think humorously or realistic, and stretch a little.

Seems people are shy these cards should not show anything that drawspace would not accept in the gallery ...so no worries please it is only a theme .

Thanks fro the prompt Kay.....I nearly missed the sign up for this !!

Add me in as well and now I shall have to strat thinking.......hmmmmmm Kermit did say it isn't easy being green.........

LOL cant wait to see what you do !!

thats great Sue, I am glad you made it..

I am brimming with ideas

I won't join this one but i'll sit on the side lines and watch what everyone comes up with. I have too much going on right now. Just moved in a new place so i'm not quite all settled yet plus the end of school year is coming up.

I am thinking we will see a lot of strategically placed shamrocks!

I have one great idea, well I hope it will translate to paper as well as I can see it in my mind's eye, LOL!! I hate it when an image comes complete into your mind and then it seems so simple to get it from my brain down my arm and out through the lead pencil (yeah right!! ha ha!)

sue you are so funny

It looks to be a very small trade which is fine, cause the other will be starting soon too..we should have no trouble coming up with 4 or 5 of these cards and it should be fun..


i think maybe one of these trades a few times a year would be good..ya know just once in while pop one up. we'll see

I can handle a small trade this month count me in

great Kat..thanks for joining

Kay what is the other trade going to be ? what theme ?

music/music instruments

I wasn't too sure about the St. Paddies theme, since I did a bunch already without it, but Jazz has convinced me that I should do this, so I'm in. He'll keep me working on it, lol.

cool..welcome and so our little group grows just pm your addy to me and i will get the list out tomorrow

Lol - oliverandjazz - simply use mine from the previous PM - Ladylee and I share an address.

Glad you decided to join love!

Kay, I have been snifing on this forum for the last week. Considering that the group is not a large one, and thus I can devote more time to each individual card, please sign me in.
Thank you
Claudio

claudio you are so funny, i think a lot of ppl have been interested but are a lil nervous perhaps when they see this one isnt so bad they will join the next one that i will have in a few months..

i am glad you decided to join

How many so far are participating?

9 so far gil..it is shaping right up

Kay do you need my address ?

nope..i still have all addresses from those that were in the cat trade..you are all set..

I just read the whole thread from the cat trade, and enjoyed all the pics in there. Now I am even more enthusiastic about joining my first trade, and can't wait to sign up for more of them! Everyone did such a wonderful job on their cat cards. I'm already researching for the music themed one, lol.

that is so great! You have been bit too by the ATC bug..I am totally hooked on these lil things..it is my favorite part of drawspace. Glad to have you

I would love to do this...but I am to chicken. Just reading your post gave me a good laugh this morning. I know all that sign up are going to have a blast. Maybe I will try it next time.

thats ok hon, just drop in once in a while and see what mischief we are up to it wont be bad i promise perhaps you would prefer the music/music instrument trade i am starting the sign up today..this one is certainly not for everyone

It looks like 9 people so far..so that will be 8 cards..i will get the list together and sent out shortly.

I think we may have been accidentally unpinned

ok guys..the addresses have been all sent out, if i missed someone let me know..

lets have fun

The fun has begun !
As was previously mentioned, strategically-placed shamrocks is a surefire idea. But I'm also exploring the idea of strategically-placed green bowler hats and sexy leprechauns. We'll see where that leads

that is kind of the direction i am heading toward too, we'll see where i end up

Got all the addresses but was wondering, Jazzmanian and ladylee, did you want your envelopes addressed to your Drawspace names? I just feel a little funny without a "real" name............but if thats the way you want it I'll just get over my "funny" feeling and send them as per those names.

Now am off to ponder on green beer, shamrocks and green hats.............

I've PM'd my full name to oliverandjazz for distribution to the trade group (sorry about that).
My name is Gerald, so feel free to use that or "Jazz" here on the forums.

Thanks,
Gerald .aka. Jazzmanian

hi guys, i have thrown away several..this trade is a challenge, i have tried many ideas, this is a peek at where i ended up heading..and this one isnt set in stone, i may end up changing again

Looking like a good start to the trade there.
I'm having a great time working on these.

I love your ..sexy lass kay
