Description:
Decorate these 9 pockets with birds and Butterfies. Using any type of sturdy paper embellish with either/ or birds and Butterflies. Must have some of both. This does not mean each pocket having both but understanding the entire overall concept is both. INSTRUCTIONS: You embellish the front. The back should be in any kind of graphic paper, printed or plain so it looks neat. . One pocket back should have your name, swap, no letter expected, short note okay. If you need to put a pocket letter in go for it but not necessary.. This swap is not a Letter type Pocket . It's to keep postage down yet doing something creative. One swapper - group member Questions just ask.

Just to be sure, if someone were to put something in the back pocket, that's a no-no in this swap? The back is absolutely plain, just fancy paper? I'm just asking so I know if putting something in the back would be an instant "3" rating.

I am trying something different with Pockets. I think less is more and sending a lot of embellishments other than in front of pockets Gets expensive to send. Back could have graphic, cute paper or ATC cards . It just seems as if buttons, paper clips are great to get In these but not in this one , please. I doubt if anyone would give a 3 rating for items in back though. Besides my loose leaf binder is getting quite thick.

So "no items in the back pockets" is a suggestion or a requirement? I think that should be clarified because I love including extras in pockets and if it would get me rated DOWN because I interpreted the no items in back pocket as a suggestion, that would be a real disappointment. :( Like you, I can't imagine someone getting rated a 3 for having extra items above the swap requirements in their pockets, but I guess it means it would be good to clarify "absolutely nothing in back pockets" or "up to sender". :)

I agree with KarlaKC. Please clarify the rules of the swap.

User2637 you always comment but don't sign up ever. However I thought I explained it. Thus group is a little different than others as I am trying to keep costs down sending. If you do one and want to put stuff in the back pockets to make it bulky and spend 2 or 3 or more dollars on postage go ahead but do not expect you will get the same thick package sent to you.

I edited it. No you will not be rated down adding all you want to pockets, it's your postage ! Don't expect same from what you receive either. I do not send a lot of stuff in mine so I hope I don't disappoint my swapper.

Well what about that. User2637 glad to see you signed up.

I don't really understand this weirdly critical/rude? commentary about me signing up or not. Very strange. I'm out!
