Description:

We all LOVE paper or we wouldn't be here! Some of us make cards, or scrapbook, or collage, ATC's or altered art, but the thing we all have in common is PAPER!

For this swap you will be creating an inspiration packet for your partner. You should view your partner's profile to help tailor it to their likes/needs. You can choose to make it a holiday theme (ie. halloween or christmas) if their likes seem to go that way or you can just choose a color theme you think they might like.

Your packet should include ALL of the following:

6 papers minimum size 5x7 (larger is fine) no more than any two alike. They can be scrapbooking paper, book pages, ephemera, sheet music, wallpaper, depending on what your partner likes.

4 medium paper accents. These can be strips for borders, journalling boxes if they are scrappers, blanks for atcs if that is what your partner likes, pieces of ephemera if your partner likes vintage.

6 small paper accents. These can be die cuts, punches, tickets, chipboard, tags, something that goes with your theme and compliments your packet.

2 choice embellishments. Anything you think your partner would like, that will compliment your packet. Ribbons, fibers, stickers, glitter, decorative brads, whatever goes with your theme.

You should put your items together in a "pretty packet" This can be a cello bag with a header, a decorated paper bag, a fabric sleeve, wrapped up like a gift, something pretty.

That's it! Have fun! I will be double checking profiles before assigning partners. You should make sure your profile includes your paper crafting preferences (ie: I scrap, altered art, cardmaking and collage but I do not make ATC) and if you have color and or style preferences. You want your partner to be able to put together something you would enjoy!

Of course no flakers! No one with less than a 4.8 rating, and no one without a filled out profile.

Would 6x6 qualify for the larger (5x7) size? It's technically 1 square inch bigger.. but I have a lot more 6x6 paper than 5x7. Just want to make sure that fits the swap requirement!

Adding to my watch list for now.

Yes! Absolutely! I just wanted people to have a general idea, so some people do not think a larger piece is a 12x12 or something :o)
