Description:

Send papers that fit with each of the clues:

  1. Something Vintage

  2. A piece of patterned card stock

  3. Dotted

  4. Striped

  5. Your favorite

  6. Whimsical

Think: something can be made from all that's in your envelope. Be creative!

Particulars:

Most importantly: papers must be 4" x 6" or larger.

  1. No 1's in the last 3 months

  2. Newbies are welcome if they drop me a line

  3. Try to spend no more than $1.50 in postage, which means you'll be sending a regular business sized envelope. Sometimes going over in postage happens.

  4. Everything is senders choice

  5. I'll angel if required, but I'll check profiles before assigning partners

Questions? Ask and I'll gladly answer!

Any chance of making this International? I think you'd get a lot of interest. :) Please send me a msg if you do, just in case I forget to check back here. Great swap either way!

Maybe this sounds stupid but, your comment about "think: something can be made from ALL that's in your envelope" has me confused. Are all of the papers supposed to make one project somehow?

collectedmess has generously given me permission to host an international version of this swap. Thank you collected mess :-)

Aubreysmom: sorry! No, they don't have to make one project in particular. They can, but it's more of a reminder to send things that can be used in whatever way the receiver needs them. Does that make sense?

Thanks for the clarification. I think I was just reading too much into that sentence.

I'd love for someone to set this up as international too, it sounds so much fun and it would get some of my pads slightly thinner :P

How can paper bigger than 4 x 6 fit into a regular business envelope without folding it?

thanks!

I thought that until I measured the envelope. Business envelopes measure a little over 4" by 9" . Actually 4 x 6 is a postcard size. Not that big. I can get a couple of atc backgrounds out of each piece. International would be fun.

I'm a newbie but I'd love to get in on this if I can, thanks!
