A "blind" swap means you get everything ready and seal your envelopes before the swap is assigned.
Here are the particulars:
- 2 partners
- A minimum of 4 different washi tape samples to each partner. [As washi tapes do come in different sizes, it's optional if you want to include more than 4 to fill out your card if you used thinner tapes, or you want to just because :)]
- Please wrap your samples on a shiny surface such as a playing card or something similar so the tapes can easily be removed. (Note, if you use a "China-made" playing card, please cover it with clear packing tape first so the card design doesn't peel up when you unwrap the tape. This seems to happen with these cheaper playing cards.)
- How much tape? At least 18" (I tend to wrap it 9 times around a card rather than measure it out).
- No plain tapes NOR any Dollar, Target One-Spot or Studio G tapes (these aren't actually washi, but more of a paper sticker). I will, however, allow Scotch Expressions washi tapes as well as any of the new colorful tapes now your local craft stores.
- Please include your name and swap-bot ID inside the envelope.
- Please decorate your mailing envelopes with what else? Washi tapes! On the front! :)
- Lastly, have fun!
