Theme: Trash To Treasure GROUP 1

*Inspired by @AZmom875

This requires all members to post tracking numbers in comments. As well as stating whos journal you received and sent out.

Limiting this swap to the first 4 players. You are committing to working on all 4 players journals.

The details:

  • Grab your journal, add your info in it with swapbot name, address, etc.

  • Grab an envelope that you can stick inside your journal (or attach to the journal with a rubber band/etc).

  • Fill the envelope with at least 20 items that can be used in your journal. The items can be anything that you may have been saving but wasnt sure how to use them. (No actual trash, no food,seeds, bio hazard,leaves,bark,feathers or perishable items). For ideas you can check the comment section.

  • Have a sign in page for the front of your journal. Anyone who works in your journal should sign, date, and write what they pulled out of the envelope.

When you receive a trash from treasure journal:

  • Pull 3 items out of the envelope. Create a 2 page art spread in the journal.

  • Use the sign in sheet, date, and specify what you used in the envelope. Do not add anything to the envelope.

  • Send to your partner. (You will send to the same partner each time you get a journal and work on it)

Remember... this is a round robin. If you need a refresher on how a round robin works, please check here.

You will always send to the same partner. Then come back here and post when you receive someones journal and send one out.

TIP :send out journals within 2 weeks. Try not to keep more than 1 journal at a time. With it only being 4 of us, it should move quickly and more smoothly.

Ideas for things to include in the envelope:

ephemera, food labels, old calendar images, a few stickers, stamped images, magazine cut outs, punched images, die cuts, postcards, yarn, ribbon, fibers, recipe cards, paint chip cards from the hardware store, cool papers, coffee sleeves, etc.

Give a variety! You need at least 25 items in your trash to treasure envelope.Please only take out things you will use on the page. Do not take items to keep for yourself. If you really love something ask the journal sender if they have more of said item and arrange a private swap.

FYI if I cannot get to post office in next weeks due to what's going on in world, I will send with stamps (I have lots) - using same value as the postage that is on the envelope that I receive.

FYI the journal I mailed out today cost $4.70 and should be the same each time.
