15 Fun Things for Spring-USA

Thanks to Becky (Hag53) for allowing me to use her swap idea and words to create a USA version of her swap.

Spring officially begins in a few weeks so let's celebrate a little early with a fun and easy swap that will help you get a start on a Spring theme junk or smash book.

This is a one partner swap for 15 Spring themed items that can be used in a smash/junk theme journal.

This is a regional swap for USA participants to keep postage down.
The International swap can be found on the group swap page which Becky is hosting. You can prep this package early and have it ready to send on due date as this is not a profile specific swap. Only requirement is to have fun and send items you would like to receive.

One set of items to one partner.

Examples of items to send can include:

papers-no smaller than 5x5

flowers

buttons

ribbon or lace- no shorter than 5 inches

twine-no shorter than 5 inches

pieces of fabric-no smaller than 5x5

embellishments (thing wood veneer pieces, clothes pins, charms, etc.)

chipboard birds/butterflies/etc.

small works of art that can be slipped into a pocket

journaling tags or plates

hand decorated paper such as painted, sprayed or colored with gelotos

post cards or note cards with a spring theme

envelopes in a spring color or decorated in spring theme

stickers can be fun when used in moderation

Handmade items are always a treat for your partner so consider decorating a tag an envie. or paintchip ect...

Please send a variety of items. These are ideas but feel free to find unique items to send your partner. You may send more than 15 if you like, but are not required to.

I'll be checking profiles before I assign partners. Hope you will join in to make this a fun swap to get those creative juices flowing this Spring!
