"Now that I have all this awesome kawaii... what can I DO with it?!"

Let's make kawaii slams! Slams are a type of Friendship Book where each page asks a different question. The book gets sent around to different people, and you can eventually get it back. It's a great way to get to know other swappers!

Be creative! You can use memo sheets (large, small, die cut, whatever!), lettersets, hand drawn pages, whatever you'd like. Just make sure that it is kawaii (the Japanese cute aesthetic).

  • You will have one partner. This is an international swap.

You will send the following items:

  • Send 3 kawaii slams. These can be the ones you received from a previous I LOVE Kawaii slam swap, new ones you've made, or a combination!
  • If you make a new slam, it can be for you or for your partner.
  • Do not send your partner slams they've already signed-in on.
  • Each slam should have at least 10 questions. Depending on how you make your slam, you might not have literally 10 pages, but we want a good amount of variety.
  • Be sure you understand what a slam is! You need a page with who made the slam and who to send it to when it's complete, plus a sign in page for each person to put their information These are a couple of slams I made with lettersets. This is a video of a more traditional slam I made with 4x6 memos! You can ask anything you'd like! (But try to be respectful, of course.)
  • Include a note with the swap with the swap name and your username.
  • Please sign up for the next kawaii slam swap when the time comes so that you can pass on the slams! If we don't get our slams back, that would be sad. :( This will be one of our ongoing, monthly swaps.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  • You must send the items in a way that they will not get bent or destroyed during shipping.
  • It's not required that you use brand kawaii, but don't use diddl, Disney, My Little Pony, etc... it should be true to the Japanese aesthetic. If you're not sure, PM me.
  • This is sender's choice, but it's always nice to look at your partner's profile for likes and dislikes! :)
  • No recent 1s or 3s.
  • Be a Darling Kawaii Swapper and read Kawaii 101.

PLEASE ask questions! If you send me a PM, that would be best. You can also look for support in the forum thread I created especially for these swaps! It's titled "Sticker Flake Slams", but I'll field any slam questions there.

I can angel this swap, but since this is a group swap, that shouldn't be necessary. :)

Do we answer the questions we put in there? Or do we just right the questions then send them blank?

rachelcdoyle 05/ 4/2012 #

When I make mine I answer my own questions and leave a space for 5 other people to answer them as well. It's all up to you how you wanna do it! :)

aviahz 05/10/2012 #

So do I make slams for myself? To send away to get filed up then come back to me??

rachelcdoyle 05/14/2012 #

Yup, you can make them for other people or yourself. :) Eventually they do make it back to you. We just need a LOT more people participating HINT HINT

(O_O) I shouldn't... but I will! What's a little more push after finals? (I'm kind of imagining dragging my half dead body passed a finish line, only to begin another. pahaha) I will only have starter slams, though. Does anyone have any they'd like to pass my way before the swap starts? <3

rachelcdoyle 05/19/2012 #

@strawberrymilkmade I messaged you, I do have 3 extras I can send you :)

strawberrymilkmade 05/20/2012 #

Thank you, @rachelcdoyle

strawberrymilkmade 05/24/2012 #

So, I made 1, but what I'm confused about are the 10 Q's. Can they be fun/silly? Do they have to be related to kawaii?

ColoradoKate 05/28/2012 #

They can be any kind of questions you like! Sorry for the late response - if you PM, I'll get back to you quicker next time. ^_^

Thanks, Kate! Good idea! I didn't think to PM the host. D'oh! xD
