WOW!  HUGE Washi Sample Swap!!
Swap Coordinator:paperpusher (contact)
Swap categories: Challenges 
Number of people in swap:14
Location:Regional - USA ONLY
Type:Type 3: Package or craft
Last day to signup/drop:November 21, 2015
Date items must be sent by:December 14, 2015
Number of swap partners:1
Description:

This swap is not for the faint of heart! You'll be sending your partner 50 different washi tape samples! Each sample needs to be at least 15" long. You may include 2 solid colored washis. Thin washis are acceptable for this swap. Totally sender's choice as long as it's really washi and not plastic/ deco tape or glitter or stiff dollar store washi that has a white edge when torn. Wrap the samples on playing cards covered in clear tape or similar to keep that last layer from sticking. (Plastic cards don't need to be covered in clear tape.) Try not to wrap so tightly that the tape is permanently creased.

This will probably be about 10 cards so this is going to be a type 3 swap/ package swap. If you can figure out a way to send it flatter, go for it! Don't forget the note stating the swap name and your swapbot ID. Tape the edges of your envelope to keep it from tearing apart during travels. Tis the season for mail being rough handled! Decorating the outer envelope is optional but, of course, always appreciated. =)

@paperpusher have you gone washi mad? LOL This swap is tempting, but I'm watching for now. May have to break down and get some new washi tapes. :)

Off to count my washi.....

If you use a business size envie, you can fit about 5 cards side by side with a little overlap. Then do a top layer of 5, and you can get by without using a bigger package. :)

Ok, my hands are aching from wrapping 50 tape samples! I guess that means I'm in. :)
