Tiny Paper Squares (USA only)

Diana, Thanks for getting this next one going. Since I just cut a ton of squares, I'm in; no problem :-)

See why everyone should save all their scraps! Paper these days is so expensive and I just hate to pitch it. I seem to always find something to use on another page from my scrap box. These work great for punches and many other things!!!

Thanks Sueb..this is my first attempt to host a swap so I'm hoping it goes well! I signed up for your swap and already put my packages together. I know that the minimum was 25, but I included well over 100 squares for each of my partners. I love paper so much that I got a little carried away! :-)

OMG I LOVE the little photo! SO cute!

Goodness, CraftyDiana, if I get you to send to, I hope I don't let you down! I don't have any where that amount of paper! Your partners will be very lucky!

I have punch that I will measure to see if it's 2x2, if so I will join. I just joined another like this so I don't want to be doning two at the same time... I also have o look at the time deadlines, I am over my head with swaps this week and the next 2, that I need some that have a later sign up date! susi

Hi Susi! The squares don't need to be perfect, I cut mine with regular scissors and some are 2 inches, some are bigger. We'd love to have you, but no worries if you have lots of other swaps going on! :-)

I signed up yesterday and spent a couple hours watching The Closer and cutting. I'll have many more than 25 for each partner. It's hard to stop once you start hunting and cutting. I used precise cutting methods initially, but then just went to scissors. Most of my pieces are well over 2'. Sometimes I want to include a whole motif or repeat so do more and other times just want to give partners a little more to work with. Next I'll have fun getting creative. I like this swap a lot.

LOL CraftyDiana, I grabbed paper that I have been using, many of the papers are my favs. Will I did not count when I started BUT by the time I was through, that pile of scrap paper, I had 50 reg pieces per person! I was shocked it went that fast and was that easy. I made a template (box from mac and cheese :p) and used it to draw my squares. I hop you make another swap like this! Thanks!

I'd like to try my hands on this swap. My understanding is that the paper squares doesn't need to be acid-free.

Hidden Jade..they do not need to be acid free papers. As long as the paper squares are nice and something you'd be happy to receive, you are good to go! :)

By construction paper, do you mean the cheap non-acid free kind? I have some that is really nice and acid-free, great colors. I use it in my collages. Can I include a few pieces of that? Cyn

Hi Cyn

As long as it's not the cheap kind you get at the supermarket in those boring primary colors. If it's interesting and good quality, I'm sure its fine! :)

Diana

Partners have been assigned...happy swapping everyone!!

Judith, Great assortment. I love it. Sueb

oops...forgot to say... Judith, Thank you!

For peace of mind, I go two in: CraftyDiana and jmculver.

Kristy Benson of Cuyahoga Falls, I thought I had left a post here that I'd received your great package of paper. But, I don't see it above, so I guess I didn't! Sorry! I did receive it and I love the papers. I like the A's and the stars. You must have read my profile. Thanks!

Doskie & Marylen: You should have received your mailings by now. They were sent early... hope you like! -Juli

Oops...I don't know how I double posted above. Would someone tell me how you know who DID NOT send their package to their partner? I notice that people leave negative ratings for people who didn't send to them, but I can't figure out how they knew who they were?

I'd like to withdraw the above message. I get it now!

Valerie from CA, thank you so much for the papers! I especially like the Asian/origami ones and the cherries. Looking at them gets me inspired to create something RIGHT NOW! Fun!

valerie from CA. I love your papers. They're unique and so beautiful. I have actually never seen origami papers in person and now I'll have to have more. I checked out your web site and enjoyed reading it a lot. And, like tuxbird, love the cherries!

Has anyone heard from jmculver? I sent her package nearly a month ago and have emailed also, but haven't had confirmation that she received it. I hope it got there.
