Description:

I will be hosting monthly swaps based on the colors of the rainbow. Each swap will be a free for all but based on a color.

For October we will be doing YELLOW envelopes.

1) You'll be making 2 handmade envelopes that are YELLOW or have some sort of YELLOW accent on them. Rubber stamps, washi, windows, artwork, collage, scrapbook paper (no solid unless you are embellishing it), stickered, calender page, painted...to name a few ideas.

2) EMBELLISHING IS MANDATORY IF YOU ARE USING A SOLID COLOR, PLAIN PAPER. AND THE RULES ARE AS FOLLOWS Please add more than one element. For example, 2 or more washi tapes or rubber stamps, etc. Basically, please don't just put one stamped image or one strip of washi tape, etc.

3) Place the 2 envelopes and your swap name and name of swap into a slightly larger envelope and mail.

4) after addressing the envelope to mail, decorate it in whatever style you would like!

5) envelopes should be no smaller than 3.5×5.5 inches and no bigger than 5.5×7.5 inches.

for this swap handmade means using your own paper to create an envelope so not a store bought envelope. You're welcome to use a store bought envelope as a template on another piece of paper.

Sender's choice.

I APOLOGIZE FOR THE WORDING & IT BEING CONFUSING.. IF ANYONE HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS ON THE WORDING OF THIS SWAP PLEASE MESSAGE ME. THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF QUESTIONS

If I understand this correctly, we can make the two handmade envelopes from pretty, printed paper without further embellishments? And, the sending envelope is sender's choice of store bought (decorated) or handmade?

Lila84 09/28/2016 #

Yes that is correct. Sorry my wording is confusing and not the best. :)

lagemaz 10/ 4/2016 #

can they be the same, or do they need to be different?

Lila84 10/ 4/2016 #

Since I have not specified whether they should be identical or different, this time it is OK. thanks for the question!

Need to drop out, heading out of town, sorry.

Just don't send a plain yellow envie, but can use printed paper mostly yellow like a yellow and white striped paper,etc. or what looks like photo above is. You embellish plain yellow paper with no design on it with wash tape and a stamped image, etc, my understanding.

Lila84 10/ 6/2016 #

Basically, yes. @ladydy5 This is the third color of this series. The next colors I will make it short and sweet I guess. I merely make the rules because it's something I'd like to receive.
