Description:

This is a swap series. This is the second swap in the series. I will host one of these every month in 2012. This is the February swap. I'll host a makeup swap every few months if there is a need for it.


For this swap, you will take a size A5 page and create an "artsy" page. You can do whatever you want as long as it goes with the theme, using any media you want. Do not use only stickers though! You can use stickers, but must also incorporate other media. Do a collage, paint, paste in things from your day... Whatever. It's up to the sender. You should leave 1" on the left side of the page plain so they can bind the pages together if they would like.

You will have one partner. I'm also hosting an international version, so you can go there and sign up as well so you can get two pages per month this way! If you join both swaps every month, you can put all these pages together at the end of the year and have 24 pages in it. :)

For February, the theme is BUCKET LIST. Interpret this in whatever way you want.


When you mail this, be sure to include a note telling your partner what swap it is for and what your ID is. Also let them know if it is the USA version or the International version.


Please realize that each person's view of what is "art" is different and you may not like what you receive, but please don't rate down for this since it is sender's choice. Please only rate using the official Swap-Bot guidelines. Thank you.

It says for january the theme is bucket list. Is that supposed to be february or is there supposed to be another theme?

Is there a reason that the USA version is using A5 paper? I understand A5 for the international version, but wouldn't it be easier for USA to use 8.5x11 (standard Letter size in the US)?

My journals are worked in the 9x6 books....

@blessedtwox - I copy & pasted all the info from the last swap, but yes, the February theme is Bucket List. :-) I'll change that now.

@sultrypeacock - I did both swaps as A5 so that if someone joins both swaps, they can put all the pages in the same book.

@Jjean - I use a A5 size binder that has three rings on it. I punch 3 holes in the side & slip them in there. Works wonderfully. :-) I'm not able to make my own/bind them myself, so this is the only way I can do it for myself.
