Signup/withdraw date – October 10, 2008
Number of Cards –4/4 or 8/8
Number of participants - Max 30
Size of pages: 3" wide by 8" high
In this swap we will make 4 or 8 pages celebrating Day of the Dead or Dia de los Muertos. We want some colorful, bright pages that can be bound in a book or made into a shrine as Adriayna shows in her Mixed media trees skinny book swap.
Pages by Eraserqueen, Electablue, Lily Lemon, Goatgoddess
Creating pages:
* All players will send in 4 or 8 pages that are 3" wide x 8” high on sturdy paper, preferably mat board or illustration board, but no lighter than 140 lb. watercolor paper or two sheets of card stock glued together.
*Please try to use a mix of media, such as: watercolor, acrylic, ink, rubber stamps, collage, brads, charms, fabric, metal, glitter, hand drawing etc and most importantly please make them colorful!
* Please include your information on the back and make the backs of the pages interesting. Slap some paint on it or cover it with scrapbooking paper, etc.
* All pages must be different and distinct. Originals only - no scanned copies or prints.
*Leave 1/2 inch on the left side free of embellishments for binding. You will bind your own pages. Some people may want to make these into a shrine or bind them on the top, rather than the side, so try to keep this in mind.
Shipping:
All participants must pay their own shipping in this swap. In similar chunky book swaps in the past the shipping was:
--USA: $2.50
--Canada: $2.50
--Europe: $4
--Australia and New Zealand: $5
Please enclose an address label and I will supply the bubble envelope, or reuse the one that you send in.
You can do any of the following to cover your shipping:
-US participants can send well-concealed cash, US stamps, or money via paypal.
-International participants can also send well concealed U.S. cash, U.S. stamps or paypal.
-Note:*If you are using paypal, please add $0.50 cents extra for the paypal charges.
*Please include username and swap name on all envelopes sent in.
* Please PM for my address when you are ready to send your cards.
I will leave all I-trader ratings when I send out returns. I will send one reminder PM (two weeks out for international, one week for local). Late arrivals or no withdraw communication/no cards will receive neutral feedback.
I think I have included all the important info, but if I left something out, just ask.
