We will make 6 nice & neat tarot theme friendship books & then send to 1 partner. Make two for your partner, two for yourself and the other two for whomever.

Learn more about friendship books (FBs) here: http://www.squidoo.com/friendshipbooks

Or here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friendship_book

These FBs should be nice & neat. Please put the swap name and date on the cover or inside cover. Please also include the email address of your partner in the “Made For” inscription.

NOTICE: If you would like your partner to include anything other than your address & email address in the “Made For” inscription, please include it in the comments below.

WARNING! DO NOT INCLUDE YOUR ADDRESS IN THE COMMENTS BELOW. ONLY POST THE INFO YOU WANT ADDED TO YOUR ADDRESS. (i.e. NSW, SAHM, SNNP)

Please make sure to look for your partner’s information below. Only if there is nothing from your partner below by the time partners are chosen, may you assume that they do not want any additional information added with their address & email address.

** All FBs must include "Made [date made] via Swap-Bot.com Tarot Theme N&N FBs"

The following rules are not just my rules, but general rules for N&N FBs.

** No plain books. All books must be made creatively and artistically with stickers, ribbons, embellishments, confetti, sequins, &/or brads.

** All books must be covered with plastic clear shelf liners, contact paper, lamination or clear packing tape to make them sturdy.

** FBs must be in booklet form with front and back covers.

** No staples allowed on the front covers. If you use a stapler, be sure to staple the pages to the back cover or on the spine.

** It looks best if all writing is printed using the computer and pasted or taped to the inside cover (although not required).

These rules are not just my rules, but general rules for N&N FBs.

You must have a rating of at least 4.9. Newbies are welcome.

It is highly recommended that you become a member of the “Themed FB Artists” group and if you live within the USA, join the “USA FB Makers group”.

You are welcome to join this swap without joining the groups.

What are nice and neat FB's and how they differ from regular ones?

N&N FBs are those that are made without staples on the cover. They are also covered in plastic or shipping tape.

The writing on the inside is nice & neat or printed with a computer.

You send them all to your partner.

Generally, the cover is made with stickers, ribbons, etc.

Then, on the inside, you write:

Made via swap-bot.com [name of swap] For: Person's Name 123 Road Street City of State, 12345 Country Name [Whatever inscription they specify in the comments, if any]

By: Your Name Your Street Address City of State, 12345 Country Name [Your swapping info/inscription]

The cover is laminated with plastic or clear packing tape.

Then it is sent with the other 5 FBs made to your partner. They in turn send it on. Then, after about 1-2 years, when the book is full, it is returned to whomever the book is made "for".

You can make it for yourself simply by putting:

Made via swap-bot.com [name of swap] For & By [Your Name & Address] [Your swapping info/inscription]

Hopefully that clears it up a bit.
