Description:

For this swap, you will create one vintage style altered text tag for your partner.

You will be using a manilla shipping tag as your base, with a book page on top, that you will alter. Leave random words uncovered, or words that create found poetry, and then cover the rest of the page. You may draw, paint, collage, add embellishments, anything you like. Whatever you do, make sure it remains obvious that you used a book page. No sticker slapping please! Put some effort into creating something special for your partner. You may leave the shipping tag string, or remove it and add baker's twine or ribbon of your choosing.

For the size, you can use any of these manila shipping tag sizes:

  • No. 5 - 4 3/4 x 2 3/8"
  • No. 6 - 5 1/4 x 2 5/8"
  • No. 7 - 5 3/4 x 2 7/8"
  • No. 8 - 6 1/4 x 3 1/8"

The tag you start with does not have to be "exact" to the above, but try to get something pretty close, and nothing smaller than the No. 5 size.

Swap Recap

  • manila shipping tag with altered text book page on top
  • write your swap-bot name and the swap name on the back of the tag
  • must be created in a vintage style

You must have a rating of 4.95 or higher, no recent/unexplained 1's or 3's, and no late swaps. Newbies welcome with a well filled out profile only. I will be checking profiles, and anyone not meeting the requirements, or that I feel is questionable, will be removed. I want this swap to be fun and flake-free!

Please kindly rate your partner once you receive an ATC in a vintage style. Be sure to allow a bit of extra time for mail travel, since this is international.

Any questions, please feel free to comment below or pm me :)
