I love postage stamps -- they are often beautifully designed and illustrated -- mini works of art! I save the stamps that come on the swaps I receive but often wonder how best to use them. For this swap, we are going to make a mini book following the instructions in this tutorial. It's a really easy tutorial and only needs one sheet of paper -- either A4 or letter size. Make your book and then flll it with postage stamps, one or two per page. Theme and style are up to you but do choose a single theme -- maybe flowers? People? Transportation? Sport? Flowers? Oceans? Animals? Books? Space? This is sender's choice so you can make a start on your book rightaway and have it ready to send out when we reach the deadline. I'm about to go to France for a couple of weeks so I've given us quite a long lead time before partners are assigned. Comment added 24 June. I've had a couple of messages from swappers wanting to make slightly smaller books. That's fine -- just send something that you think your partner will be genuinely delighted to receive! |
