Description:

This is an All Things Crafty swap. Please put 5 or more of these items in an approx 6x9in envelope. Please give what you would like to get! Think of it like a little bit of stuff you don’t need that others may think are treasures! You should consider your partners profile, but this is senders choice. There is not a $$ minimum, but don’t be stingy, extra’s do not always earn heart, but I DO give hearts if time was taken to read my profile and they send stuff I like. But you can't please everyone:(( Not everyone has your exact profile items in their stash. If you would not be happy getting an item from this list please don’t sign up. Have fun, be generous and happy swapping!

  • 1 piece of printed fabric, 6in sq. minimum (meaning has a pattern, not plain)
  • 1 12in min. piece of ribbon
  • 3 buttons
  • 3 brads or eyelets
  • Card stock and/or scrap paper scraps, (not ripped, or bent) no matter the amount of paper, only counts as 1 item.
  • 1 piece of chipboard
  • spare game piece (dice, domino, monopoly car, ect)
  • playing card/s
  • note card & envelope
  • a rubber stamp
  • craft or beading wire 12in minimum, (not short trash pieces)
  • 10 beads or 100 seed beads, no pony or plastic beads (please don’t throw in loose)
  • 5 stickers, not tiny ones!
  • Something shiny (glitter, coin)
  • Something you got in another swap that you don’t want or can’t use
  • A quick homemade craft that you put together in 10 minutes or less with stuff you already have! Do take some effort, it’s to show your crafting skill, not that your lazy...
  • A recycled item that you use for crafts, and a quick note/example of how you use it

This is a brand new group and my first time being coordinator. I will angel if someone flakes, but DO NOT sign up if you don’t have time to do it! I will NOT allow flakes to participate in future swaps. Anyone with a full profile can join if you WILL swap on time! However, if you have any recent 1's or 3's I will be contacting you for an explanation before you will be allowed to stay. I understand that life happens, but flaking will not be tolerated! Newbies can join if you have a well filled out profile, (likes, dislikes, favorites colors, ect) we all need a chance to get started. This is a USA only swap, to keep shipping cost down, Sorry:(

Ratings: 5 if swap is on time and has 5 or more from the required list. Remember 3 buttons is 1 item! Rate a 3 if arrives but has less than 5 required items. Rate a 1 if doesn’t arrive! Give a heart if they deserve it:))

I would have done this no problem but I am in Canada, please make an international one! Best wishes and luck!

Just a note, You can not tell those in your swap when to use hearts, i.e.telling them that extras should earn a heart. It states right in the rules before you get to start creating your swap that you can't do this. You are going to have some really upset participants when they come across someone who does NOT give hearts for extras...

i agree with karenmomofthree, i hope theres an international version of this soon too

I'm a newbie and genuinely wanting to participate in this swap...however, having trouble verifying my email address for some reason. I was hoping that if this doesn't get rectified tonight, that you wouldn't drop me yet :) I'm way too excited now to give up without finding a way to get verified!

Thank you, Cameron

Hey ladies I have been out all day!! Rudexvirus, I just updated the heart section on another swap. You brought up a great point and I appreciate your comments...going to edit right now:)) Thanks

MisfitScrapper 05/17/2010 #

Hey PaintMyselfPretty thanks for the update. I will keep you in:)) Those intersted in a international swap...my husband just got laid off, so I am on a tight budget, so for now the postage has to be cheap...sorry ladies:(( But when he goes back to work, I will open it up!! Thanks for understanding:)

This is my first time swapping on Swapbot so I am not sure how to navigate my way around, but I do want to participate in this so I'm giving it a try!

PaintMyselfPretty 05/18/2010 #

Okay, I'm verified and ready... have few things in the envie but want to read partner's profile for rest! This is going to be so fun!

MisfitScrapper 05/18/2010 #

I am brand-new (found the site and signed up today!) and this is right up my alley. I'm still filling out my profile so hopefully it will have enough info to guide someone. Very excited about this!

MisfitScrapper 05/19/2010 #

I am soooo hooked!! I love this site! It's so much fun!

Darleneh710 05/21/2010 #

MisfitScrapper 05/21/2010 #

The swap sign-up deadline ends tonight...I will send the notice to assign partners right after that...I am excited to get started too:))

Hornicorn 05/21/2010 #

I'm having the same problem PaintMyselfPretty was having with email verification. I really want to do this swap Hope my verification gets solved soon.

MisfitScrapper 05/21/2010 #

Hornicorn, I just sent you a message about adding to your profile, but you are welcome to stay:))

yamikolynn 05/21/2010 #

Hi, I enjoy beads-buttons-pendants-markers-charms.

Hornicorn 05/21/2010 #

I got your message...added some to the profile and then couldn't seem to reply to your message. Just wanted to let you know I appreciate the advice!

MisfitScrapper 05/21/2010 #

Great...I hope it was helpful:)) I usually don't give advice unless it's requested first...but I was a newbie not too long ago and had to learn it on my own:)) Have a great day:)

Hornicorn 05/22/2010 #

MisfitScrapper, I still have not been able to verify my email ( have contacted admin...waiting to hear from them.)

When I went to my dashboard today this swap was gone. Does this mean I'm not in it anymore, or I just don't know where to look for it. Can't PM you so I have to ask here. Really was looking forward to doing this as my first swap!

MisfitScrapper 05/22/2010 #

Hello Hornicorn..Yes..you were listed in this swap last night, but I just checked and for some reason you are not there anymore, you are welcome to join it again. I didn't remove you...lololo...not sure what happened...hope you can re-join us:)) It might be in your watched swaps??? Not sure where else it would go...

MisfitScrapper 05/22/2010 #

This one closed and partners were sent out last night...so you may have missed this one...I am sorry...I do hope you can make the next one:(((

Darleneh710 05/23/2010 #
