Cottagecore Flipbook + Penpal Letter

Do you love the cottagecore aesthetic? Then this swap is for you!

For this swap, you will create a cottagecore themed flip book with at least 3 parts (folders/pockets/bellybands/flip-outs,etc.), and fill it with themed goodies for your partner. You will include a letter of at least 2 pages introducing yourself to your partner. Then, you will decorate an envelope (put some effort into this!) to mail the flipbook+letter in. Your flipbook/envelope/letter should weigh over 1 oz and require at least 2 stamps.

If you need ideas to create your penpal flipbook, you can search "penpal flipbook" on youtube and find lots of tutorials and creative options. If you do not know what cottagecore is, a quick pinterest search will give you an idea.

Some ideas of things to put inside:

Stickers

Ephemeras/paper items

Sticky notes/memo papers

Letter sets/Greeting cards

Bookmarks

Wax Seals

Pressed flowers/leaves

Washi tape or PET tape (clear plastic tape you can cut designs from like stickers)

Ribbon samples

Decorated envelopes

Address labels or swap cards for your partner to use

Stamped images on quality paper

High-quality printables

Postcards

Scrapbook clusters

Let your imagination reign :)

Remember if you spread out the pockets so that the goods are distributed evenly, your envelope will be flatter and easier to mail in a standard envelope.

For this swap, you must be rated 4.98 or above, and have at least a few type 2 or type 3 swaps under your belt. I check all profiles before assigning partners to ensure a good swap for all.
