We haven't done one of these swaps in over a year. All skill levels welcome! Make one of these cute mini books with pockets from a piece of double-sided scrapbooking paper (this tute is provided as a starting point only). If you prefer printed instructions, look here. This book is made basically the same way as in the first tutorial, it is just bound/finished differently. Please note: This swap is for a book with FOUR pockets (not 8), so it uses just one half of a 12" x 12" sheet of paper (12" x 6"). If anyone has questions or problems making the book, please pm me. If you do not have access to double-sided paper, you can decorate the blank side that shows after folding with painting, stamping, drawing, printed images, patterned paper, stickers, etc. Decorate the outside of your book, include a mechanism for closing it (the usual way is with ribbon ties, but any mechanism you like is fine), and fill each of the 4 pockets with one little thing (see list below). If you want to make the mini book using a different design, you may, as long as it has 4 pockets, a closure, and is about 3" x 4" finished. The theme for this swap is "PAPER ONLY", so anything at all made primarily of paper is acceptable. Examples: ATC, inchie, twinchie, tags, stickers, stamped images, labels, postage stamps, ornaments, embellishments, die cuts, wash tape, ATC backgrounds, etc. Please check your partner's profile to make sure you don't send them something they specifically do not wish to receive. Other than that, it is sender's choice. Items to be inserted in the 4 pockets: If you have any questions, please pm me as I don't check my swaps daily. Have fun! |
