Description:

Something completely random and fun, round three. I'm posting this one now so everyone has time to consider it. This scavenger hunt has a Valentine's Day theme to it.

You will have 1 partner. This is an international swap. Collect the items on this list to send to your partner. Please keep the items appropriate for all [ie - no nudity, no profanity, etc]. Thanks! - and I mentioned it because, yes, it has come up before. Haha. And so, on to the items that you collect to send to your partner:

  1. Something locked away.
  2. Something red.
  3. A poem.
  4. Love.
  5. Chocolate/Hard Candy.
  6. The ATC you've created, of course.

You should have 6 items in your envelope. The five items from the scavenger hunt and the ATC.

Of course, things can be interpreted in many ways - love can be a warm fuzzy puppy, a red heart, a picture of a red rose, etc etc. Get creative.

For the ATC, standard ATC size rules apply [3.5"x2.5"] and please make sure it's sturdy enough to survive and flat enough to be put in a sleeve if your partner chooses. If you have an idea on how to make the ATC have a 'scavenger hunt' theme to it, all the better. :o)

I reserve the right to drop anyone that has a rating of less than 3.0 and/or more than two no-sends, so please don't sign up if that is you. Everyone deserves to receive something. Please keep up your end so nobody has a bad experience. Newbies are welcome to play. Thanks.

dumb question here--for something locked away, do you mean a locket or a key--would that be appropriate? Maybe the wrong word, I'm just trying to figure out possibles

missnatalie 01/ 3/2007 #

Whatever "something locked away" means to you. A picture of a lock and key, a drawing of a person behind bars, etc. Anything you see as being something that is locked away. :)

If it's vague - really vague - you may want to attach a note explaining what you were thinking, but other than that, just run with it.

I don't see my partner to send to?

missnatalie 01/31/2007 #

They will be auto assigned by the bot at the end of February 1st when the sign up period closes. :)

missnatalie 02/ 2/2007 #

Or when I click assign partners. snicker That's new for me. I've never had to click that before. Everyone should have partners now.

can i send a photo of my exboyfriend who is in jail???? does this count as locked away??? he might make good art if you cut him up!!!

missnatalie 02/ 7/2007 #

Um. Well, yes, if that is what locked away means to you, of course. You may wish to explain your thinking to your partner, however. :)

This is turning into a lot of fun actually... I just thought I'd mention that, in case someone wanted to start another one for next month... (grins)

Hi Gracemom6 keep an eye out in a week as yours is on the way from New Zealand. Have fun with it as I had fun putting it all togeter to squeese into the envelope!

missnatalie 02/11/2007 #

I dropped mine in the box at the p.o. but I think I missed the "last call" for pick up so it may be postmarked with Monday's date. I hope you like the items, Scrappinaddict28!

missnatalie 02/11/2007 #

And it's still the 10th here. :)

Clayshaper 02/12/2007 #

EEK! I mailed a buncha stuff the 9th AND 10th, and I stupidly left this box in my car... it was hiding under the seat. grumble So it'll hit the mailtruck Monday AM- sowwy for the oversight. I'll let my partner know too. :)

simplysarah 02/15/2007 #

thank you capt. jim... I got your package and I like it alot!

happy valentines day!!!

Clayshaper 02/20/2007 #

Ah, no, that would be Me, Clayshaper! Capt. Jim is my otherhalf, and he\'s the one who technically owns the horsie in the pictures in your package. :) I\'m the guy who does all her training and works with her the most. We\'re not quite SO joined at the hip that we\'re interchangeable, but... (snicker) We do get mistaken for one another in real life too. I\'m glad you liked the package, though! I hoped you\'d get the joke about \'locked away\' because of course, the movie and such was kept under wraps untill the sundance film festival, and not many of my friends actually know WHICH movies I have done any work on with animal training. grins

Clayshaper 02/26/2007 #

Feh... this was such a fun swap... but i got a jerko-dud for a swap partner who didn't send, and apparently either got deleted or deleted herself. Bleah. I hope they do more of this kind of swap- it was so fun to put together the package like that, it required a lot of thought!
