Description:

This is the second swap in the "Women Who Changed the World ATCs Series." I've participated as a swapper since 2007, but have never hosted a swap. So, I ask that you be patient with me, and ask any questions you may have so I can clarify anything that may be unclear.

This swap is motivated by a book entitled:"Her Story:Women Who Changed the World." The book features women from Prehistory to the Present who contributed to changing the world. In this swap we will be learning about 5 women during each swap .

NOW TO THE NITTY GRITTY:

  1. This will be a long term swap, approximately 2 years--don't let this scare you off. It will be amazing how fast it will go and we will be learning about lots of interesting women.
  2. You will have 1 partner.
  3. You will make 1 ATC about each women, 5 total.
  4. On the front of the ATC include a representation of the woman, the woman's name, and anything else you feel is important to include on the front of the ATC. Just slapping on a picture and the name is not acceptable.
  5. On the back of the ATC include: your name, date, number ____/123, artist(you), and answer this question: What did this woman do to change the world?

Here are the first 5 Women we will Make ATCs about:

  1. Boudica
  2. Hypatia
  3. Empress Theodora
  4. Wu Chao
  5. Murasaki Shikibu

TO PARTICIPATE:

  1. You must have at least a 4.8 rating
  2. No unexplained 1s or 3s in last 6 months
  3. You must have at least 25 Type 3 swaps completed.
  4. This is a long-term commitment, so if you are not serious about doing quality work and sending out your projects on time then please don't sign-up for the swap. I will also review profiles before assigning partners.
  5. If for some good reason you can't get your ATCs out on time, please notify your partner.

I LOOK FORWARD TO HAVING LOTS OF FUN WITH ALL OF YOU WHO SIGN-UP TO TAKE THIS JOURNEY WITH ME.

Hello Gofeen, The first one was five other women who lived during the Pre-history to 1750 era and made a significant impact on the world. The five woman were: Queen Hatshepsut, Sappho, Aspasia, Cleopatra, and The Trung Sisters. I would love for you to join the other women and I who are traveling on this adventure to learn about these women and learn about what impact they made during their time. This is a long term swap, but you can join when you want and leave when you want or stay until the end. I am also hosting another swap about the Wonders of the World. The first swap we did the Ancient Wonders of the World. That swap is closed, but the 2nd one is open and it is about the Medeival Wonders of the World and they are done in Skinny form instead of ATC form. A skinny is 3x5 in size and is a form of an ATC, the size is the only difference. You can look for that one too, if you are interested. If I can help in any other way, please feel free to leave me another message through

Hello erisgrrrl,

I am glad you enjoyed looking up the women and finding out about them. Hope you will think about joining the swap and shariing your ATCs with fellow swappers.
