Description:

Edited I changed the send by date to June 7th, for anyone running late I didn't want you to have to worry about getting them done this Holiday weekend, hope you all will get out and enjoy a picnic or something!

Everyday we wish for things, whether it by a sunny day, world peace, more ephemera...lol..beautiful ribbon..a vacation to Cancun...

So we are going to be swapping pages that represent something you wish for...let your imagination run. We will end up with a beautiful wish book..and it might make you wish for something new, you had not even thought of yet!

We will be swapping 4.5"x4" Chunky Pages with a "i wish for...." theme. Your design should represent your wish, artist's choice.

Please leave the extra half inch to your left side free of embellishments to make it easier to bind.

The back does not have to be as decorated as the front but must include your username and any other information you want to give regarding your page. Please do not leave the backs too bare or they will look funny in a bound book.

Please make your page "chunky"...that is what makes these books special. Use lots of ribbons, fibers, charms, buttons, brads etc..the more the better!

You can be a beginner to making chunky books as I am but you must have experience in scrapbooking or cardmaking to join this swap.

Use a high quality sturdy cardstock, but not chipboard.

Rating: 4.9 No recent ones, if its one that is from someone international that rated too soon, that can be worked out, just let me know.

Partners: 5 You make 6 pages, keep one for yourself. 6 actual originals, no photocopies. I will host a second and maybe third swap in this series. I am making it a 5 partner swap as alot of swappers feel overwhelemed by 9 partners, and I am hoping those will or can join us.

International Since this can be mailed in a fairly small envelope, I think the postage would be reasonable for overseas.

Please do your best work and send something you are proud of, also you must rate your partner in a timely manner.

I reserve the right to ban as I see fit in the best interest of the other swappers, like if at time partners are assigned you have any swaps past due you will be dropped from the swap.

Please contact me with any questions!!

Happy Swapping!
