Description:


It will be nice to have a 3 ring binder type COLLECTION BOOK with full pages.
The kind with the CLEAR FULL PAGE PROTECTOR sleeves...
You will have 1 partner and you will send them
1 CLEAR Full page PROTECTOR with A SENDER'S CHOICE ADULT COLORING PAGE COLORED BY YOU ON THE FRONT.

DO NOT USE KIDDIE PAGES or pages from CHILDREN'S COLORING BOOKS

(Signed like an artist should with your name or user name or both ;-)
& UN~Colored ADULT COLORING page or pages on the back.
INCLUDE a note or letter for the swap (WITH the swap name & your USER NAME on it for ease in rating)
Your letter can be slipped between the pages ;-)
If you like to send EXTRAS then Sticker sheets or flat type goodies could be slipped between the coloring pages too ;-)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So to sum it up...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EASY SWAP Requirements:
1.) 1 clear full page protector to 1 partner , mail flat and unfolded.

2.) AN ADULT page colored & signed by you facing to the front of the page.
I have in mind RECTANGLE & the size of a page protector
or maybe an inch border around all edges...
IT IS A GREAT IDEA TO PUT IT ON A DECORATED PAPER BG
that shows around the image (around 1" ) like a frame ;-)

3.) Everything is SENDER's Choice so you may begin working on the swap! ;-)
~ If you are too picky about colors, etc... maybe this swap isn't for you. This is just a coloring page and if you hate it too much just don't put this one in your book ...keep collecting & you will probably get some pages you do luv. OR you may enjoy the variety of the pages like I do!!!! ;-)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Let me add here that this may be an adult coloring page swap BUT it IS NOT "ADULT THEMES"

Keep it something that children can look at in our collection books without any problems...;-)

4.) If you receive a clear page protector with a colored page signed by the artist, a note and an uncolored page on the back in a reasonable time frame you must rate a 5.
If you really like it &/or the goodies you may give a nice 💖 & make your partner happy too!

5.) Include at least 1 Uncolored page facing the back that your partner may color &/or share.

6.) Include a letter or note with your USER NAME & THE SWAP NAME on it. You may discuss the swap choices, techniques, the weather, the seasons, coloring, brands of material used, ETC...

7.) You may use pages out of a professional coloring book or pages that have been copied on the computer & printed. Just include credits that are on the pages when you can, I pick up many nice pages they have stacked to give out at my local library.

8.) Mail these in LARGE FLAT ENVIES so they are UNFOLDED...

This is USA ONLY & I just mailed this type of envelope for $1.42 ;-) Anyone may copy & paste this swap description if they would like to do an International or specific theme swap like this in the group... Have fun & enjoy the swap.
I will try to do this each month thru 2016 & see what a great collection we can all get ;-)
You are encouraged to do private swaps like this too as we get into it so we can have coloring pages from all our C.I. Group friends! ;-) ENJOY!
Blessings, cc
MY SWAP DESCRIPTION IS EDITED TO SAY ~~~~~~~
Someone asked me does it matter if you use crayons?
That's OK with me.... Hope it is with all participants too ;-)...
I did not specify in the swap what to use to color with...
THE SWAP IS SENDER'S CHOICE so you choose! ;-) ....,
paints, pencils, markers, colors(crayons), watercolor pencils, ETC...
Just make it NICE & SOMETHING YOU WOULD ENJOY RECEIVING ;-)

I got this question and I wanted to add the answer here too... ' IN my COLLECTION BOOK SWAPS it is OK with me to put a slightly smaller page on a sheet of pretty designed scrapbook paper the size of the page protector....as a BG BORDER of about 1 inch around the page. THAT would look very nice ;-)

I went to the PO & did an experiment.
I had a LARGE MANILA ENVELOPE WITH ONE OF THESE SWAPS & I TOOK LOTS OF EXTRA PAGES TO SEE HOW MANY I COULD ADD BEFORE BASIC POSTAGE OF $1.20 WENT UP.
SO I had the clear page protector with my colored page and my note was written on one of those long skinny notepad pages that sometimes have a magnet on the back to be on the refrigerator for grocery lists ;-)
AND I WAS ABLE TO ADD 5 EXTRA COLORING PAGES TO THE SWAP... ;-)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SO......
IF you mail up to 6 pages flat in a large manila envie it is only $1.20 in USA
& $2.60 Canada or international from USA ;-)
