Description: | |
I love getting decorated envelopes in my mailbox. It's one of my favorite swaps to hostess. If you do also, then sign up for my Decorated an Envie with LADYBUGS Swap! You will send your partner a fun decorated envelope with a ladybug theme. The envelope can be any size but decorate it anyway you would like with drawings, glitter, stamps, whatever. You are the artist! I beg you to spend some time on sending something you would like to pull out of the mailbox and only join if you intend on doing that. Please don't join if you are going to slap something together. Now that I have hostessed this sort of a swap many times, I get so many complaints from people about what their partners send. An envelope with a few junky stickers is not what someone wants to pull out of their mailbox! Only join if you like to create. You don't have to be a great artist, I know I am not but I enjoy creating and putting my best effort forward. For a heart, put some cheer in the form of a card, letter, recipe, poem, sticker or whatever you see fit. Open to all 4.5 rated but this is meant to be for people who won't flake or who flaked a little in the past and want to redeem themselves. I will let newbies join to get some ratings. USA only but if you want to make an international one, be my guest! Let's have some fun and spread some cheer decorated envie-style! I posted a picture of a terrific envelope that iheartkawaii made for her partner for a May-theme swap. So cute!! Common Questions Answered: A decorated envie is decorated on the outside of the envelope where you address the letter to your partner. Backside is optional. You do not have to "make" the envelope. If the deadline to sign up is June 8, then I can't assign partners until June 9 and it may be late in the evening but I will assign them! :) Yes, anyone is welcome to use my ideas and create an international version! |
