Halloween Whimsy Envelope Swap! Let's get spoooky!!NOTE: There are no strict regulations on what you put inside, as long as they fit the theme this month, and isn't junky or dirty! Feel free to decorate your envie however you'd like, though it is NOT a requirement that you do so! Thank you ^_^ ~ For this swap we'll be creating a single HALLOWEEN themed whimsy envelope for our 1 partner. This will be SENDERS CHOICE! Meaning all items you include can be of your own choosing. HOWEVER PLEASE BE MINDFUL OF YOUR PARTNERS ALLERGIES IF THEY HAVE ANY! (for example items smelling of smoke can be harmful to those with allergies or asthma, same with perfumes, etc)
This IS sender's choice, however that being the case PLEASE NO JUNK!Do not just open up a junk drawer and grab a handful of paper products, be thoughtful with what you send your partner! Please no blank or plain colored post it notes or post it shapes, no blank address labels etc. This is meant to be 'whimsical' and so the items inside should be visually pleasing in some way, or something you feel is special somehow, something nice for your partner! Remember, we want to make their day ^_^ Put together something that you would enjoy receiving if it were your gift, something that you're super proud to share with someone else! We want to warm our partners heart with our lovely package! Not leave them feeling a bit deflated by receiving someone's throw aways.The theme this time is HALLOWEEN! So anything Halloweeny goes! It can be cute, kawaii, spooky, or down right scary! Paper goodies in colors synonymous with the holiday, purple, black, orange, slime green! If it screams Halloween....or, if it just screams! This is Halloween in all it's Halloweeny glory!!!
As long as there's a good variety of different sized papery type goods inside, enough to make it look like a super FLAT snow globe! Then that's all that's necessary ^_^ The envies do not have to be stuffed like they ate as much as they could eat lol Again, I would say around the ounce mark would be more than fine, so a single stamp should suffice to send :) Of course you're more than welcome to use or create a larger envelope if you wish, that's up to you. I am allowing a good amount of time for sign ups, and a month until send by.
Please use tape around each edge of your envelope! Since your paper items will be freely floating around inside the envie, we don't want to risk an edge tearing and anything slipping out! Especially if you're shipping overseas! You can use scotch tape, etc, as long as the edges are secured, that's all we need to make sure of ^_^ Items should be LOOSE inside of the envie. If you purchase something wrapped, such as a packet of sticker flakes, or a little bag of die cuts, etc, you should open the bag and dump the loose items into the envie. The idea is to put everything inside so it can get all messy and mixed up in there! Items that you may include:
These are just suggestions!! There's tons of things you could add! You could make up your own theme, or use totally random paper goods. Use your imagination ^_^ Of course handmade goodies are welcome if you'd like, though please do your best! Remember, DON'T JUST CLEAR OUT YOUR JUNK DRAWER! And again, NO PLAIN POST IT NOTES, OR SOLID COLOR PAPER GOODS! Those are booooooring! lol These flat whimsy swaps will be Newbie friendly! Newbies with 5 completed swaps along with 5 positive ratings are welcome for this swap! No swappers with recent 1s or 3s (within last 6 months) I'll be checking profiles prior to assigning partners! . So that's it!
And send! If I've missed anything, or if you have any questions or comments, feel free to let me know!Paper Good Image Examples:
