Description:
Back by popular demand! I don't scrapbook but I do collect stickers and stationary items. There are certain words or images that I gravitate toward. Perhaps you are the same. The idea here is that when you sign up, you will list 5 such things for your partner to choose from. For example, my list would be: soft bunnies, quilts, "joy", "hugs", and vintage (1930s to 50s). When you are assigned your swap partner (you will each have one), look for their list in the comments and put together a nice little collection of items that represent those things. For example, you could send me stickers of bunnies, cut out images of lovely quilts (to inspire me in my future projects!), cut out the words "joy" or "hugs" from magazines, send stamps or bookmarks or postcards or notecards of those words or pictures, send something handmade, etc. Be creative!! You don't have to send something for each word, but please send at least five items (not counting magazine cut-outs... I think those should be extra), and make them really nice! I always hate to put a price on my swaps, but can we go for AT LEAST $5? This is an international swap, as the items will probably be small and postage shouldn't be much. I'm going to insist on a rating of 4.5 or higher with no no-sends in the last month. I will check!! Newbies MUST have a full profile. I will contact anyone I feel iffy about. Please note that I will not be able to "angel" or "fairy" on this swap so you do join at your own risk. I'm making the sign-up date soon but I'll give a decent window for mailing out. Let me know if you have questions. Don't forget to post your list after you sign up! Thanks, and have fun! :)

What fun! My favorite words/images are as follows: words: "imagine", "remember" images: plants, ocean, faeries

This sounds cool! Mine are "dream", "Sarah", dragonfly, woodsy items(pine cone, trees, moose, bear), and vintage paper(postcards, stamps, book pages, wallpaper...) - the older the better!

Oh, VelveteenRabbit, thank you so much, you're a star hugs

My words are:
* alphabet
* lavender (the smell, not the colour)
* New England/Pennsylvania (going on vacation there in September)
* watermelon
* penguins
If you can't find something for these categories, you can send me a US state magnet (apart from OR, ddmaree sent me that one already), something about/with Orcas, Louisiana or guinea pigs.

I loved this swap so much last time, I can't wait to get started again :-)

I'll be assigning partners later today. I'm waiting to hear from one participant.

Thanks for your patience! :)

Partners are assigned - and I am soooo thrilled that my partner is the one who sent me stuff in the last swap \^_^/

VelveteenRabbit 06/28/2007 #

I have to admit that I was the last one to send out my package. :[ Thanks for participating, everyone! Hope you enjoyed it. If I organize another one, it will be when I'm not so insanely busy that I can't my own package out on time! :P :)
