JoyAnne, thank you so much for accomodating all of us who were looking for a USA only swap--we appreciate it!

What do you think about adding optional...prompts that our partner can fill in?

JoyAnne 04/20/2010 #

That is a good idea snowqueen1426!

I am not a artist, but I will do my very best! I have been doing more collages and free hand drawing, than just using stickers. Will that be okay? I don't want anyone disappointed

JoyAnne 04/21/2010 #

kraftykj, that is fine. You choose the way you do it!

SherriB 04/23/2010 #

Ok, just to clarify, is it 20 pages as I flip through the book, or is the left side of a double page spread page 1, and the right side of a double spread page 2, and so on?

JoyAnne 04/23/2010 #

The left side counts as page 1 and the right side as page 2 or you can do all right sides.
Each page doesn't have to have a removeable treasure, you can write a recipe right into the book!

I made the journal for my partner over the weekend and mailed it out this morning via Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation. She should have it by Wednesday or so. My hope is that she won't open it until Sunday, May 9, but I forgot to write that on the package.

I promise not to open till May 9th!!!!

JoyAnne 05/ 3/2010 #

I hope you'll upload some photos!
