Thanks @YardSailingMama @ladydy5 and @HeideC for the suggestions. I;ve added them to my list and will include them in future Pick 2 Swaps!

hi im a newbie and was wondering is this swap open to people in the UK? thanks

so none of the stickers on the sheet can be small? or just not a whole sheet of like reward tiny stickers? i think most sticker sheets have a mix of tiny and big

@yummymummy13 , toward the top, you will see a header that says "Location: Regional - USA." That means people outside of the USA should not join the swap.

I have invited you to Newbie Helpers so you can better learn how to navigate the site. And you can join all the swaps in the group.

@destiney1 - correct

I just want to say that I am really in love with this swap. I have been sick since Christmas and my computer crashed so it's been hard to get online and check for swaps and info and to go out shopping. Having this swap makes it simple. I join and look for items in my stash, then check for my partner and find something for her or if I need/want to get something I only have to go shopping once or send my girls out. Thanks!

This is my first swap. I was introduced by a dear friend. However, I'm not sure if handmade envelopes means you decorate envelopes or do you actually make the envelope? :) The swap seems really fun!

This swap looks like a blast! I can't wait. :)

Mine is all ready! Just need a name. This is one of my favorite swaps. I love reading the profile of my swap partner and look for things I think she would love!

Where do we get a address at?

I know this is a silly question but what is note/memo paper ?

This is my very first swap, and I am so excited, but have questions. First of all, do you send the items in a regular or decorated envelope for this one, or is it up to the sender? Secondly, in browsing the site I keep seeing the term "kawaii", and am assuming it is has nothing to do with Hawaii. Can someone tell me what that is? I will get up to speed quickly, I promise! Last question is, do we receive our contact through email?

@yomousey - that's why I do it!

@Debbyjean - both or either...just no sticker slapping!

@Jerimi - welcome!

@keyscullar - same here.

@paperpanduh - PMing you a note.

@Gslady - no Q is silly! That's how we learn. Note/memo paper is the pads you purchase in the store or online. Popular ones are Diddle, Hello Kitty, Sanrio, kawaii. Here's a link to some: http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/kawaii-notepad-with-hello-kitty-as-rabbit-with-hearts

@Kanamichelle - welcome to swap-bot! Up to sender how you send. kawaii - see above link. Pming you swap directions.

Last question. I thought I signed up for this but my dashboard doesn't have it listed. Is there a way to make SURE I am signed up? I tried doing it on my Ipad so it might not have accepted it. Can you let me know, instiches? I just did another one and had to use my PC for it to accept it, so I might have to do that with yours too. Thanks! I just don't want to sign up twice.

I am just going to try this again from my PC. I hope it doesn't sign me up twice, but it doesn't appear that I am signed up. Here goes...

@Kanamichelle you are signed up :) You should be able to see the yellow box at the top right and can view participants there. If you can see the "join swap" option at the bottom of a swap description, then you are not signed up for that oarticular swap. If you're already signed up for a swap, swapbot won't sign you up multiple times, just once, so no worries about that.

Any size restrictions on the handmade envelopes?

How do I know who to send my swap to? Yes I am new at this... Sorry.

I really wish there were more US/Canada regional swaps..

@bitsofwhimsy there are HEAPS of US only swaps. Absolutely HEAPS of them. Sometimes I think Swapbot is starting to become for Americans only. :(

@bitsofwhimsy is in Canada, so the "heaps" of USA only swaps aren't of any use to her.

thanks for answering for me @paperpusher

@nailet - mailable ones, nothing tiny or contact your partner and see if they would like tiny ones.

@LavenderTrends - sending you a PM

Sorry @bitsofwhimsy and @Lizard I just can not afford to send out of the USA anymore. I missed a person in the UK and her partner couldn't send overseas either. So I sent to the UK. It cost me close to $3 to send an envelope that costs 49 cents in the states. For me, swapping is a fun thing, not something to put my family in debt. I wish I could do overseas still, it was fun getting "foreign" things.

There was an international version of this swap (someone asked me last fall if I'd mind and I said go ahead) Sorry, I can't remember the name. Just keep searching and hopefully it will come up for you. If not, then feel free to host your own. I remove about 5-8 people who are out of the USA each month, so there is an interest.

These are fun! love these swaps:)

How / when do we get addresses ?

@Julie1967 We'll get the addresses when the coordinator assigns our partners which should be sometime today. When they're assigned there will be another link in the yellow-y tan colored box at the top about seeing your swap partner. =]

Inchies, bookmark, postcard, ATC, stickers, notecard, foreign coin, surprise, cancelled stamps, recipe cards, and homemade item.

Why haven't the partner's been assigned as of yet?

@msrhetta I imagine it is due to the large number of people who are signed up for the swap. I'm sure it will take a good amount of time to go through all the participants.

How do I know who my partner is? I see where they are assigned. I must be missed it.

never mind found it. :)
