Description:

This is a swap series. This is the second swap in the series. I will host one of these every month in 2012. This is the April's swap. I'll host a makeup swap every few months if there is a need for it.

For this swap, you will take a size A5 page and create an "artsy" page. You can do whatever you want as long as it goes with the theme, using any media you want. Do not use only stickers though! You can use stickers, but must also incorporate other media. Do a collage, paint, paste in things from your day... Whatever. It's up to the sender. You should leave 1" on the left side of the page plain so they can bind the pages together if they would like. You will have one partner. I'm also hosting an international version, so you can go there and sign up as well so you can get two pages per month this way! If you join both swaps every month, you can put all these pages together at the end of the year and have 24 pages in it. :) For April, the theme is SPRING. Interpret this in whatever way you want.

When you mail this, be sure to include a note telling your partner what swap it is for and what your ID is. Also let them know if it is the USA version or the International version.

Please realize that each person's view of what is "art" is different and you may not like what you receive, but please don't rate down for this since it is sender's choice. Please only rate using the official Swap-Bot guidelines. Thank you.

Requirements to Join Rating of 4.8 and up. No unexplained or recent 1s or 3s. If you have been given an unfair rating, PM me to explain. All other considerations for participants are screened on a case-by-case basis and I reserve the right to remove anyone that I see fit. :-)

I have a couple questions please.

First of all. A5 is... 210 x 148 mm.../....3 x 5.8 in correct?

You mention "1" on the left side of the page plain", does this mean the page must only be used one way, the 5.8 inches should be the width, or does that matter? The way it is laid out on this chart? http://www.papersizes.org/a-paper-sizes.htm

I hope my question is clear. And I am asking this for both of these swaps.

I would love to do this but have a few questions. First, is it too late to join? Will I be able to get January, February and March pages? Second, the inch that's left blank. Does is go on the 3" side or the 5 3/4" side? Is the book orientation horizontal or vertical? And will we be swapping covers, too? Thanks.

A5 is 148 x 210mm, but the conversion to inches is 5.8" x 8.3".
Whether this is relevant to the swap or what the host intended, I have no idea! ;)

This is MANDY MOORE'S swap ... I am standing in for her whiles she is getting ready for her big day!!!! I hope I can answers some of these ...

The conversion is right by grammag...

The art work must be vertical...

grammag ... no it is not to late to sign up...

The last day to sign up is March 9th:>

As far as getting the past months ... that would be up to you maybe setting up Private swaps with past participants.

OK. I have two swaps that will be sent tomorrow and then I will have room to sign up here, so I am going to! Does anyone want to do a make-up swap with me for January and February?

grammag 03/19/2012 #

I am starting on my page and had another question. Is it a two page, facing each other, layout, or one page front and back?

HannahsMommy07 03/20/2012 #

Only on one side ... Did you get my PM the other day?
