You can send index card mini decos you received from other index card mini decos swaps you've received, or make new ICM decos.


If you've been doing quality tiny art like ATCs or inchies/twinchies for a while, then this may be a fun collaborative-style project for you.


Fold an index card in half to make a little 2.5" X 3" book.

Choose whatever theme you would like, sender's choice (or make it an open theme).

The front and back covers (and inside front and back covers if you choose) are yours to decorate and add info like your username, email, swap name, return mailing address.

Include between 4 and 8 pages available to decorate (1-2 folded pages that are bound in the middle).

Bind the spine of the book with string/twine/ribbon, machine stitch, or you can staple the spine magazine-style.

Example of a simple 3-hole string-bound book signature:

NOTE: Once you have received your deco booklets, decorate a page in each of the decos, then you can mail them to me (PM me to let me know), or check my list of swaps to see if I've got another deco swap happening, or pass them along to someone else, or maybe start your own deco swap.
