Crafty Pals Forever

This swap is for people who love paper crafts and want to find permanent crafty pen pals. The point is to write a letter and send it in a decorated folio to your partner.

Your folio should be made according to these tutorials (Janette Lane); Easy trifold penpal folio part 1 and 2

As I've said for this swap, you'll sent one partner an introduction letter about yourself. Tell your partner a little bit about you (your hobbies, interests, what you do and anything else you'd like to share. Maybe you'd like to share your plans/hopes/dreams for 2019. Just some ideas...

Your letter should be about one page long, handwritten.

(For reference, a one page letter will be considered one 8 1/2 x 11 size paper. Please keep this in mind if you're going to use smaller paper, to add an additional sheet. It can certainly be longer than a standard page if you'd like, that's up to you.)

To make this cheerful, include some goodies and decorate your envelope. It would be nice if you replied to the partner from whom you receive a folio. This way, if you are lucky, you may gain two crafty pals for a long-term swapping in the future.

To join this swap: - Must have a well filled out profile. If your profile has two or three short sentences, you WILL be dropped from this swap. - NO 1's or 3's within the last three months.

So, for a quick recap: - You will send ONE letter to ONE partner. - Your letter should be one 8 1/2 x 11 page (or the equivalent) long (or longer). - Include goodies. - Decorate your envelope any way you'd like - it can be plain, painted, drawn on, have stickers, just about anything creative of your choice, OR you can use a handmade envie. - Remember that this swap is INTERNATIONAL, so please keep that in mind. - Remember it is a crafty swap, which means it is more time consuming than others. - Have fun! :-)

Happy swapping :)
