Description:

With a BIG thank you to @TerryF for letting me host a swap she previously hosted in TPD group.

All of my swaps are open to all skill levels, including beginners.

Make one of these cute little mini books with pockets from a piece of double-sided scrapbooking paper (this tute is provided as a starting point only). (For the tutorial check: Mini Book with Pockets using Only One Sheet of Paper, on YouTube)

If you prefer printed instructions, look here This book is made basically the same way as in the other tutorial, it is just bound/finished differently.

Please note: This swap is for a book with 4 pockets (not 8), so it uses just one half of a 12" x 12" sheet of paper (12" x 6"). If anyone has questions or problems making the book, please pm me.

If you do not have access to double-sided paper, you can decorate the blank side that shows after folding by painting, stamping, drawing, printed images, patterned paper etc.

Decorate the outside of your book, include a mechanism for closing it (the usual way is with ribbon ties, but any mechanism you like is fine), and fill each of the 4 pockets with one little thing (see list below).

If you want to make the mini book using a different design, you may, as long as it has 4 pockets, a closure, and is basically the same size as the above ones.

The theme for this swap is "PAPER", so anything at all related to paper is acceptable: the items you enclose in the little pockets must either be made of paper (such as inchies, twinchies, swap cards, address lables, tags) OR relate to paper/papercrafts in some way (such as handmade or purchased stamps, ribbon, glue dots, mini gel pen, paper clips, mini stamp pad).

Items to be inserted in the 4 pockets: - Two must contain "made by you" items. - One must contain a note to your partner. - One is sender's choice (purchased or made).

If you have any questions, please pm me as I don't check my swaps daily. Thx!

Have fun!
