Technique Journal

I don't know about the rest of you, but I have been learning some great new techniques! The problem is my brain can't always retrieve all that info when I need it, so I want to make a small journal with a different technique on each page. It will be a great reference for the future!
We are going to make these pages 4x6", big enough to see the technique but small enough to be easily stored or carried. And I usually wait to make the cover at the last, but this time we are going to start with it, so we have protection for our pages right from the start.
Make your covers 4 1/2" by 6 1/2" and punch 3 holes on the left and fasten together with notebook rings. This is so we can add our pages as we go. Use heavy chipboard or mat board, or something along that line, and then collage it with some of your favorite papers. Add the title Technique Journal somewhere on the front cover and you're done! Pop it in the mail and wait for yours to get to you. lol
I think this will be a fun series, and a great tool for us to have in our arsenal, so let's get started! Have fun with these covers, but remember to do your best work!!! We want these little books to last for years, so make them sturdy. And make them something that would make your mama proud. (This is always my guide in everything I do....would my mother be proud to show this to her friends and tell them her daughter made it?)

Now here's the business blah blah. You must have a 4.75 rating, with no unexplained 1s or 3s in the last year. I will be checking profiles for things like late swaps and low ratings. And, of course, NO FLAKERS!!!! I will angel if I need to, but if I have to angel for you, you will not be allowed to join any further swaps unless you notify me ahead of time with a very, very good reason! Life happens to us all, and I will make an exception for that as long as you notify me in advance. Newbies will be allowed as long as they have well-filled-out profiles. This may alarm some of you, but I was once a newbie, and they have to start somewhere!

Now, go get started and have some fun!
