Description:

This swap is for two tags, each 3”x 6” as always. But this month we will concentrate on one technique -- NAPKIN DECOUPAGE!

For this technique, we will use 2 different, beautiful napkins for our tags. Start out, as always, with a piece of cardboard from a cereal box. In the YouTube video below, the crafter is using a file folder for her base.

Once the napkin is adhered, you need to decorate it as you normally would. You can use flowers, lace, fabrics, die cuts, words, whatever you need to make beautiful tags.

NOTE: When I say decorate, the tag is already decorated, but you need to finish it. Make it your own.

Remember, slapping on a sticker or 3 is not good enough.The same goes for a picture. You must create something.

Since this swap is always sender's choice, you can get started with making your tags right away. Then, when partners are chosen, you can send them out quickly. Getting them sent out as quickly as possible is key to a successful swap, as there are still mail delays happening everywhere. If you run into any problems, communicate with your partner.

Create something beautiful that you would like to receive.

Remember to put your name & your Swap-Bot name on the back of each tag, with the swap name & date you made the tag. Also add your address or email, but at the very least, write your location on the back of each tag.

And, most of all, have fun!
