The first ATCs I ever made are the inspiration for this swap.


The focus of this swap is any animal wearing human's winter clothing such as a winter coat, scarf, hat, gloves, mittens etc. Your animal should look like they're ready to go outside in the snow! Your animal can be cartoonish, realistic, Zetti style, any style is welcome, the main focus just needs to be the animal in its adorable warm people clothes.

This is a 3 for 3 swap. Your cards can be all similar or all different.
​
Please, at a minimum, include the following information on the back of each card:
TITLE OF SWAP

YOUR REAL NAME
YOUR USERNAME
YOUR LOCATION​

I would like to sign up please.

I am really bad at choosing favourite because it feels so definitive so to break it down a bit:
My favourite pet animal is a dog, my favourite wild animal is an elephant and my favourite fantasy animal is a dragon.
 
Welcome @Amai, @ferretgirl, @aginghippychic and @KerensaC ! All amazing favorite animals!

I like the breakdown of fav pet animal, wild animal and fantasy!
Mine would be a very difficult tie between rabbits and parrots for favorite pet animal. Fav wild animal would be bears, most specifically a grizzly bear (black bear is a very close second) and gosh can't beat a dragon for fantasy!
 
Love this theme! Please add me to the swap!
Reading through the thread is giving me ideas. My favorite pet animal is a dog. Favorite wild animal is a gorilla, close second a grizzly bear. Favorite fantasy animal is a mermaid.
 
Welcome @Essy! We both love grizzly bears! Most people when I tell them I like bears they're mortified how could I like such a big scary animal. But bears are so much more than big and scary! Good to know someone else out there sees their beauty!
 
Thank you for the welcome @Maxtastic! Really!? Too bad they feel that way, but they can have their opinion. Grizzly bears are Awesome!! You’re right, they are much more than being big and scary., They are so amazing!
 
Ok, for now I must lurk a bit. Gives me some time to think about favorites in those three categories. I bet this theme brings some wonderful art!
