Let's keep this series going :)

This time theme in an envie is... OPPOSITES

Anything goes but you are not allowed to send anything that is not theme ;) 10 items!

HOW to interpret opposites; happy & sad, raining & sun, opposite colours (red & green, orange & blue, purple & yellow), big & small, black & white, boy & girl (pink or blue), old & new, city & village, dog & cat, round & square...

please try and group your items together so your partner can tell what opposite you are trying to decipher. for example place two happy & sad items together, then 2 yellow & purple items on top of that, or you could use separate paper clips or baggies. it's up to you. what i'm trying to say is, don't just randomly put all the items together in no order because then your partner won't be able to tell what opposite is what. you are more than welcome to, (if you would find the above difficult) to use only 1 opposite and colour code your theme to make it easier. you could, for example JUST do a black and white package, a big and small package, a yellow and purple package. however, please try and come up with your own opposites, & include as many different ones as you can :)

Ideas include; notecards, memos, atcs, cut outs, smash items, postcards, stickers, embellishments, used stamps, anything handmade, die cuts, craft paper, stationery, mail art supplies, envelopes, ribbon, stamps, beads, mixed media items, rub-ons, paper ephemera, vintage items, photographs, candy, gifts, the list is endless.

Sticking to theme send your partner an envelope full of items of your choice. How you interpret it is up to YOU. Please try and choose a variety of thing, not all the same. The minimum is 10 pieces. Please send only attractive things, papers/ephemera/craft items must be nice, not rubbish. Items you send could be used for mail art, paper projects, smash journalling/junking, ATC's, collections, etc so must be nice. You are also welcome to get creative and come up with cool ideas to send any other items that are not paper related if it fits theme. One piece counts as ONE, so you can't send for example 10 postcards and call it done, that's wrong.

Although should be cheap and flat to post, as it is not a huge swap, please don't send the minimum possible; try & make your partner happy, and send a nice, decent sized swap for the requirements. Please try and FILL your envie.

Any questions, or ideas of things that can be sent that I may have missed out, just comment below :) feel free to leave any suggestions for future themes below also.
