Description:

Postage keeps increasing, so I am going to host a set of swaps in which we will swap pages for a junk journal. There will be at least five swaps. Each swap will ask for five items. At the end, we can each build our own junk journals or do whatever we'd like with the pages we've received.

For swap #1:

  • Send five different folded pages. The pages should be between 4" x 6" and 6" X 9" after being folded. They do not have to be the same size, and could even be five different sizes. Size is up to the sender.

  • Each page should be lined or have grids. Each of the five must be a different paper. Papers can be varied weights. Pages can be vintage or new.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me.

Swap requirements: You'll need to have a rating of 4.90 or better and a well filled-out profile. Newbies are welcome with a completed profile. No recent or unexplained 1s or 3s. No flakers.

Can just one side of a page have lines or a grid pattern (well, it really would end up kaving 2 since it will be folded. Do ALL 5 pages have to have lines or a grid pattern? It may be a bit difficult to find 5 different pages that when folded will made the sizes you've specified. I have papers galore and a lot of ephemera, but not all have lines one them.

Lines on one side is fine. All five pages need to have lines or grids somewhere on them. Remember, you can always trim bigger pages to fit the size requirements.

Can you draw the lines or grid yourself? Or glue lined paper to the paper you have. Like susi said, i have lots of pretty papers, but not lined or grid ones.

I also like your idea of just sending pages to people instead of the whole journal. Think this will be a great swap.

You can be as creative as you want, as long as there are lines or grids.
