Description:

Round 1 of the Traveling Photo Journal swap. I plan on doing this swap monthly and please don’t sign up if you can’t commit to such a requirement. It’s not fair to the other participants. I understand life happens, but please let your partner know if you’re going to be late sending this swap.

IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST ROUND: You will buy a journal, notebook, comp book anything with at least 80 pages. On the cover write what this journal is for. Then you will write a short Bio about yourself (1-2 pages) and include a photo of yourself. Then on the next two pages you will tell us how your family celebrates Thanksgiving including pictures and maybe a family recipe.Then you will leave a prompt for your partner on what kind of photo they should add to the journal. Then send it to your partner. Be sure to include your address on the last page so we know where to send the Journal home to when it’s full. So all together you will have added 3 photos.

IF you participated in the last Traveling Photo Swap you can send your Journal to your partner to start this over again. Explain that you were in the previous swap. You will then do the next two pages telling us how your Family celebrates Thanksgiving and send pictures and maybe a family recipe. If you do not celebrate Thanksgiving let us know and substitute your own promp

Please put your given name and address in the back of the book along with your swap name so we will know where it will go home at the end of the swap.

I will check ratings if you have below a 5.0. No 1's this year. 3's I will check and decide to ban or not.

This is a USA swap only due to shipping costs.. Have fun and Happy swapping!! If you were a no-send last time you will be banned from this swap!

The pictures DO NOT have to be on photo paper, you can gladly print them off your computer on normal computer paper as long as it’s a visible photo.

should we take pictures and write how we celebrate this year or are we using info from previous years?

I'm gonna join either way I just wanna know I'm doing it right.

I am sure the coordinator will check to see why your rating is lower than a 5., there are always exceptions.

I have been the recipeint of @wikkedlilgrrl s submissions on the last 3 or 4 traveling photo journal swaps (random haha...kinda strange but it has been fun to get to know her) I think the perfect 5.0 is a little stiff bc her photos are fun, her handwriting is beautiful and the pages are all decorated beautifully. Please change something :)

Mamabemus you may use this yesr or previous years. Glad you are joining.

Mona 10/27/2012 #

Please read requirements again I have edited. It is very simple. If you do not celebrate Thanksgiving tell us that and do your own prompt. Individual ratings will be checked.

ladydy5 10/28/2012 #

It will be a first for me. Excellent instructions in description also.

cgoltz 11/ 9/2012 #

This sounds like fun. This will be the first time for me as well.

Mizchef 11/10/2012 #

I have never done a swap like this before so I have a few questions. Once we send our journals on to the first person, they will fill out the next prompt? And then send to on to the next person?

Mona 11/12/2012 #

Yes that is correct. Let me know if you have any questions.

streetjewel 11/13/2012 #

How much does it usually cost to ship smth like this?

sdowner 11/14/2012 #

I hope my original journal makes it back home soon ... Otherwise, I'll start a new one.

Mona 11/14/2012 #
