Sign Up Date......September 1
Number of Players........10
Must Have Postive Raings to Join.........If you are new to this site, please pm me........I would like to talk to you..........Thanks......
With this swap you will make your own Deco Book for other people to work in.......
There will be two groups of five players.........Each player will work a page for that players book in the group that you are in.............
You will pick your theme of your book...............
It can be any size you want.........
You design your own cover and back so when the book comes back to you it is completed................
Books will have five pages for five players to work on unless you want to make a page yourself than there would be six pages..........On the back of the page you are working on, show your title of your page, your usersname etc but decorate the pages alittle so it is not so blank looking................That would finish the book off alittle more......Thanks........
Embellishments......I leave that up to you....Please let me know when sign up if you want bulky embellishments used on your book.... ...I will post it next to your theme........Some people like their books to be flat and I know others like the bulkyness....Please .......... if a player want no bulky embellishments, do not add them.................
Any meduim is welcome as long as you do your best work.......
You have two weeks from the time you receive the book to work on your page and than pass it on to the next person........
Everytime the book you are working is passed on to the next person, you are to post it here........I will be keeping a close attention to this thread because I don't want anyones book to get lost or hung up somewhere.......
I had a bad experience with a deco book that someone made for me and the first person that I mailed it to still has it and has never returned it to me after several attempts of trying to get it back.......
If this happens...you will be left with a NEGATIVE RATING......
If the book you are working can't be completeled in the two week time frame, it is to be past on to the next person..........
When you sign up, you are to pm me with your address, e-mail address and a phone number where you can be reached......Each player in their group will be provided this information.......
You must be willing to mail anywhere because anyone is welcome to participant in this swap.......
The book you make is to be made and ready for mailing by Friday, September 5th...... The estimated completion date is the end of November.....
I hope I covered everything........Until our books get sent out, please check back to the main body of the thread for any additional information in case I forgot something...........
PLEASE FOLLOW THROUGH WITH YOUR COMMITTMENT IF YOU SIGN UP FOR THIS........
ANOTHER COMMITTMENT YOU WILL BE MAKING WHEN SIGNING UP.......
If something happens to someone's book and that person is left with their book for whatever reason, the players in that group will replace pages/or do pages so that player does have a completed book....... I just got done doing the last page in a deco book for wulfcwen...........The completed book turned out sooooo cutie!!!!!
