Description:
Swapping art journals and RRs of art journals is getting expensive with Postage costs going up every where. My answer to this is swap art journal pages monthly. Post below what size journal page you prefer. Please use sturdy base paper that can be bound into a journal later or used as a tip in page. Any style any media or combination. Make something you would like to receive yourself. All media is welcome however Stickers unless hand made by you are not encouraged. I will post this swap monthly sometimes with A theme sometimes not. This first one the theme will be, "Me myself." Share something about yourself in the page. If you have suggestions for page themes let me know. Any questions etc... Ask I'm on line most every day sometimes twice. The usual Swap-bot rules apply.

I love this idea! Would it be possible to have each person post a requested page size? I've got a journal I'd love to add pages to, but it's not 8.5 X 11 inches.

I have changed the details on page size. Hopefully this will make the swap more appealing to everyone. I have also extended the dates.

SherriB, thanks for a good idea.

Ok, my page size will be 5 1/2" wide, and 8 1/2" tall.

I don't mind what size page I get as I am hoping my resulting book will have all kinds of pages in it :-)

My page size will be 5"x7".

I'd like my page to be 8.5 X 11. I am going to bind with the Zutter binder and need 1/2" on the left to punch holes & nothing that will get crushed by the machine on the left 1.5" when I put the wire binding on it. :)

I like 5x7 pages.

I've been asked to ask you all to refrain from using stickers. A sticker here or there artfully placed to enhance something is one thing but covering a page with trade mark (say Disney) stickers is not art and should not be in an art journal page. Artful hand made stickers are not excluded. Thanks, Tess

I have an assortment of sized pages waiting to be bound so any size 5x7 or larger and allowing for binding on the left side is good for me.
