Description:
I love smashbooking and I'm assuming you do too if you're reading this! Let's get creative and make our own smashable goodies! Make a total of 8 handmade items and send 4 to each partner. Yes you could make all envelopes but wouldn't it be more fun to get a variety of things?! Please put effort into these items, there is plenty of time to get them made and sent. Examples: Handmade envelopes, folders, tags, journal cards, etc. If you have any other examples please share them in the comments! No newbies, sorry. Must have at least 20 type 3 swaps. I will remove questionable swappers as I see fit. (The photo is some items I've made and some I've received)

I have signed up but what is a journal card?

KristinCali 06/27/2013 #

Thanks for joining @grandmaroro ! A journal card is a small insert for a journal, photo album, or smash book. Sometimes they have quotes on them or writing prompts for you to fill out. Usually double sided. Do an image search for 'journal cards' or 'handmade journal cards' and a few ideas come up. Hope that helps!

Pretty much this is free reign. Anything you can create for somebody to add to a smashbook ;)

Oh i just read TWENTY???? type 3 swaps? Is that a normal request?

@redflower It is to protect the swappers from those that have ulterior motives.

KristinCali 06/27/2013 #

Yes, I'm sorry @redflower that is a normal request. Each host chooses different requirements, and I've seen as high as 35. Send me a PM if you would like to do a private swap with me!

@KristinCali sorry I didn't respond sooner. I did Google and WOW -I found a lot that I already have (didn't know what they were called) but not so many handmade. Then, last night, as I was sorting "extras" received from swaps, I found handmade items that will be perfect for smashbooks. Knowing me, once I start making these, I will be out of control until the brain fries. I love learning, creating, and sharing. Sure hope you have more of these swaps.

@grandmaroro I also had some before realizing what they were called! I'm so glad you found some inspiration! :)
