Description:

You can never have enough washi tape! And for some of us, you can never have enough pen pals!

This swap is easy... You will send to two (2) people, so you will get four (4) penpals total.

This swap will consist of 1 handwritten letter, please don't make it generic or copy/paste. Lastly, include at least 4 samples of washi tape that must all be at least 12 inches long. This is sender's choice! You will have one week to send.

Two strict rules: No solid colors or cheap/dollar tree tape, please! So one letter and 4 washi tapes each for both partners.

Please don't sign up if you aren't looking for penpals, I created this swap to obtain more pen friends, it won't be fair to your partner if you don't have plans to keep writing to them.

Newbies are welcome, of course! But please have a filled out profile. No recent 1's or 3's in the last 6 months. I will be checking for those!

If there are flakes, I have no problem angeling, after two weeks past the deadline and you rate your partner a 1.

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Let's have fun with this, everyone! Cheers!

I was part of the first one and loved it. Both my partners already replied back.

I hope there will be another one later on. I will be on holiday most of next month, so cannot participate =(

@HelenG6 Don't worry, I plan to host more of these in the future! :)

I am new to this sit (have been crafting for years though), I was wondering how we get our partners for this swap?

I curious as to why you let @knotAnotherTangle143 stay in this swap when she had 4 late Type 3 swaps on her dashboard? (Now she's up to seven late swaps. Looks like a bunch of people aren't going to get their Valentine swaps on time - or not at all.)

Honestly, this is literally my 3rd swap that I have ever hosted, so I thought that before I assign swaps, I am supposed to look at users' scores. Never did I think to look at dashboards before you and another user mentioned it. From now on, I will take that advice and make sure to look deep into people's profiles before assigning partners. I personally have been partnered with her a couple times and had no problems. It's unfortunate that she hasn't fulfilled the current swaps she is in, and if by chance she doesn't with this one either, I am more than happy to angel. Sorry for the inconvenience.

As an international sender I just got to say that 2 weeks seems a little harsh before rating a '1!. It's true that most letters are delivered within that time frame, but unfortunately some may take longer, especially if they're sent halfway around the world. I personally would appreciate it if someone would be a little patient and if after 4 weeks nothing has arrived then drop me a message saying that it didn't arrive and I'll be happy to resend.

Thank you for bringing that up, I signed up for to many. I know it's unfair. I will be paying more attention in the future. Thank you for being supportive and understanding.
