Easy swap, but can be timetaking. Send 25 clippings to your partner. These clippings can be cut out of magazines, books, hobbysheets, junkmail or flyers. Cut each image neatly and precisely.

The clippings must be usable for atc, journals or handmade postcards. So don't send very tiny or very big ones.

Send only clippings from the listed subjects. Make sure you send at least 7 different subjects, with a maximum of 5 clippings for each subject. Choose attractive images which your partner can use again in craftworks. You can already start clipping, the clippings are sender's choice.

Include a little note to explain which subjects you have chosen, the name of the swap and your swapbot name. No unrated swappers allowed.

I fear this may be a ditzy question, but I live by the credo "the only stupid question is the one not asked"... so I'm asking:

17) green - do you mean the color green or "eco-friendly"?

many thanks!

Feel free to give it a meaning yourself. You can explain your choice to your partner on the included note :-)

Does the clippings have to be paper? Can they be cardboard, plastic, etc?

taeniura 03/ 3/2016 #

Paper is of course most common, but if the clippings are beautiful and (re)usable, they can also be made of other materials than paper.

I just added 'Easter' for this month. Please, check your partners dislike list first before your send religious clippings.

Well, fiddlesticks, I did not read the instructions closely enough and totally missed the phrase "neatly and precisely". While I would love to receive 25 precisely cut images, I cannot send precisely cut anything. I have diabetes which has taken a toll on my poor eyes. I do apologize for having to withdraw, but I simply cannot meet the requirements. This is a wonderful swap and I was so excited to join. Have fun everyone, and enjoy all your new images.

@grandmaroro if you like we can do the swap private.
