Description:

Simply a paper bag photo album swap was created to share a little of your creativity with your partners. Now that the holidays will be closing we can get back to other things we love. This is a pretty basic scrapbook-type swap. The only catch is that it MUST be made from either small brown or white paper bags and should be from three to five paper bags and each is decorated wtih a particular theme (your choice) and tied w/ribbons. You can use whatever type of embellishment/picture/ribbon/paper you wish.

Here is a website to for "How to" instructions: scrapbooking.about.com/library/weekly/blpaperbagscrapbooks.htm

You can place little tags, a note card, or a little something for your trade partner inside the bag openings.

This will be open to USA and International. Do not forget to include the swap name and your user name on the card!

You will send out "two" of these mini paper bag albums, one to each partner, possibly across the globe. They should be postmarked!

I will ban if I see multiple no-sends or have any other reason to believe you will not be a good swap partner. Newbies are welcome!! (but must have a filled out profile.)

Happy swapping to all! Contact me if you have any questions.

I am only giving a couple weeks to complete the book but since it's about YOU and not your partner, you can start this book the moment you sign up.

AngelFaeryKathleen ~ it is two partners......my apologies with the holiday crunch I didn't review enough apparently. I thought two would be simple and they are fun. Also, I use them as cards too and then add some photos of the person (if I know them) but since you don't you can place a blank sheet on each page for your partner to place a photo on or they can even write a note. Enjoy they are fun to make. hugs back to you.

Tampagirl ~No they don't have to be sewn. I have seen some of the page designs sewn and then adhered to the paper bag page. Such as little pockets and note tags and so on. Enjoy and hope you join. Take care.

Hello everyone! I extended the sign up date after a couple of requests and allowed for more time to prepare them. Hope you are all okay with that. Take care, Linda
