I am a Washi tape addict and I still want some more!!! For those who don't know what Washi tape is..... The word washi comes from the Japanese words for “Japanese” and “paper.” Japanese masking tape is a wonderful invention for arts and craft projects. (This is not the deco tape that is more like Scotch tape.) The great things about washi tapes: 1.Removable and you can easily re-position them. 2.You can tear them by hand, no scissors needed. 3.You can write on them or use rubber stamps to stamp a desired pattern over them. 4.You can layer them for different effects.

If you participate in this swap you will buy 2 rolls (different designs) 15mm wide (1.5 cm) x 10 m (30 ft) long then you can have enough to share with 2 partners and have plenty of each left over for you. THIS IS NOT FOR HOMEMADE WASHI... MUST BE STOREBOUGHT. For this swap... don't use the tissue tape from Target, the Tim Holtz brand or the Recollections brand from Michael's. This needs to be the Washi tape that you find sold as "Washi tape".
No deco tape (which is like thin decorated Scotch tape)!

When the sign up deadline is over you will be assigned 2 partners. You will send each partner 5 FEET of BOTH tapes. So in total 10 feet of tape to each partner.

Send your Washi to your partners wrapped around either- a tongue depressor, popsicle stick, large Domino tile or small Lincoln Log, a small pencil, wooden spools or scrabble tile. You may wrap BOTH tapes around the same pencil/tongue depressor. Package them well so they don't break through the packaging (like in a bubble envelope, sturdy manilla envelope or small box

Only those who have a 4.85 or better rating. No recent unexplained 1's or 3's. ALL PARTICIPANTS MUST HAVE AT LEAST 5 COMPLETED #3 SWAPS!! I WILL BE CHECKING!

What makes this swap different from previous Washi swaps is that you will include in your package a profile related item for them to use in their Smashbook (profile related ephemera, a couple colored Sharpiepens if they mention they love Sharpies, a small stack of 6x6 patterned paper, or anything that is Smashbook related OR..... send them 3- five foot lengths of Washi instead of the two! I bet they would love that! Just read their profile to see if there is anything they absolutely don't want or use.
