Description:

I loved this swap last year, so let's do more pages.

Your task: make one 4x6 inches postcard-sized page, on sturdy card, for each of two partners. We will then be able to bind all our pages into a mini-Book of Shadows. Some page ideas:

  • Tarot tips
  • a spell
  • the lore of a tree
  • a ritual for a festival
  • information about a deity
  • lore on a tool
  • a meditation

...and so on. Whatever aspect of your practice you find interesting and useful, and that you want to share with a partner. Make sure you decorate it!

Usual rules apply: be kind, send something you'd like to recieve, communicate with your partner in case of trouble.

There all different sizes of postcards. What size would you recommend is best, perhaps a 4x6, 3x5 ?

Itti 08/ 3/2012 #

Oh that's a good idea, to make them all the same size.

4x6 is good

Will new group members be allowed in this swap?

Unmutual 08/ 4/2012 #

Haha, sorry - I didn't realise "postcards" didn't have a standard size... I agree - let's do 4x6. I've edited the description :)

Janicemarie - yes, new group members are welcome.

Thanks! I'm definitely in then!

Do we put information on both sides or just one side and the swap info on the other?

Unmutual 08/13/2012 #

Izzy - Just one side, so that it can be glued into a book.

I hadn't thought about swap info - maybe put that on a note with the postcard? Or just sign your name at the bottom? I don't think it's necessarily important to use up space to mention the name of the swap, as it should be obvious this is a witchy postcard-page :)

Sorry I was late with assigning - I went on holiday and forgot the deadline. Good luck with crafting!

i am mailing today to my partners =- I did not go back and read the changing about not a post card size into book of shadow but changed into must glue to a page so i will mail what i have created for my partners and that is that - i enjoy creating information into a give to someone else so I get carried away sometimes thinking oh need to give her this one and this one just in case she does not have this info and might like to have it - i did not write swap info on my cards as i did not create the original info but gathered form many sources and I thought it would not help the shadow book anyway think my partners will enjoy the cards i send and all but one can be glued onto a page -(sorry)

Maggie - that sounds really exciting all the same. I hope your partners like what you sent, and if they don't that you can all come to some agreement. If there's a problem, I'll see what I can do to help.
