Description:

This is my first public swap and I decided to jump with this theme, thanks to @Spice who is hosting the Regional version, owns the idea and gave me permission to host the global version :-)

Often, we run into stuff that at simple sight seems trash but if you look at it in detail, it triggers your mind with many ideas of how it would look just used in different way to make something new!!!

For this swap, you will take a minimum of 4 found objects and create a piece of art along any other materials you may want to incorporate. You decide what to do: a postcard, altered file folder, decorated envelope, bookmark, inchies, ATC's, zines, rolo or digital masterpieces, just make sure to secure them as corresponding with the design you have chosen. A good size is 5''x7'' but you owe the final decision.

Participants are welcome as long as they have a 5.0 rating with no 3's or 1's and very well filled and up to date (current) profiles and you need to state that you enjoy, want and are happy to swap/trade handmade stuff.

Please note this: we are not experts, however, your swap should be proof of effort, dedication and love.

Check your partner's profile to find out more about preferences and likes and dislikes, however, theme is your final choice.

Let me know if you have questions or suggestions!

I hope I have not to do it, but I can angel my swaps

Disclaimer: The swap will take place only if we reach at least 6 participants, otherwise will be cancelled.

I'm on the watchlist now because I'm maxed out on my swaps. I'll be able to join in a couple days. :-)

@sunrising42 Great and welcome!!

Sunrising42, I was wondering where all the players were going to . I am so glad you posted that you are on the watchlist.

So far I have found a neat gold foil candy wrapper. Some binding for the new sink. You know that plastic strapping that they use. I tucked that away while we were unwraping the new bathroom vanity/sink. I also have the silver lid to a canister of coffee, I already die cut some shapes out of it. So we need one more player to make this swap a GO. or as the host stated it will be cancelled.

♥♥ thank you @AZmom875 for the encouragement!!! I will consider it even with 5, honestly is my first public swap and I was not even expecting anybody to join with so many offers out there... So happy I have 5 enrolled already :-)

I just want to make sure I read this correctly, for 5"x7" base would that mean that if we wanted to do ATC's we would be doing 4 of them to have a total size of 5x7?

Hello @PeachyDoll it sounds an excellent way!! Your question has shown the need of clarification in the swap's description, so I will add this option! Some people could prefer to do smaller pieces so I will take your question as example. Thank you!!

mgallardo68 01/14/2017 #

For everyone!!! After @PeachyDoll question, I found a discrepancy in the swap's description. So please see the little change I made, as I moved from given a determinated size to suggest one. So is up to each one as I stated at first, what you're going to send as long as it is send in safe manner.

I think this gives a better perspective!! Please ask me if need more explanations!

Good luck friends! Any question feel free to ask. We have enough time to work on this :-)
