Description:
Quite some time ago I joined this inkblot swap hosted by @symphonie I asked her permission to host this swap this time and luckily she permitted. The text and the idea are from @symphonie I'm only hosting it this time. Anyone can make one of these! For this swap you will make 2 ATCs for 1 partner. Use inks, gouache, water colour or acrylic paints (oils would take forever to dry). Place some blobs of paint on your 3 1/2"x 2 1/2" paper and fold vertically or horizontally...or maybe you could try more folds...just experiment. Use loads of colour or black and white. White paper, black paper, coloured paper...its up to you. These 'ink blot' prints are fun and addictive so I have allowed plenty of time to practice. There is no need to embellish in any way...let your 'blots' speak for themselves. :) Thats it... enjoy! Newbies are welcome with well filled out profile.

Hi, I can't see that you have specified who is able to take part. I'm a newbie but have a well filled out profile, does that make me eligible?
