Description:
I like journalling, and using magazines for crafts, so I have decided to combine the two for a swap. I hope others will find this a fun idea as well! For this swap you will have 1 partner to whom you will send a journal. The journal must be no smaller than 4 inches by 6 inches. The journal needs to have at least 40 entries. An entry is considered to be one 4" by 6" side of a page. (Entries can be longer of course..) Each page topic should be inspired by a magazine image that you cut out and attach to the page. For example, I cut out a photo of a sewing machine I would like, glue it to the page and write about why I want to try it, what I would use it for etc.. You don't have to decorate the cover, but it would be a nice touch! There is over 1 month between the sign up deadline and the send by date, but feel free to start as soon as you sign up! To participate in this swap, you need a rating of at least 4.8, no unexplained 1's & no no-sends. No newbies are welcome to participate in this one, sorry! This swap is open to Canada & USA only. If you want to host an International version, please feel free to do so after this swap closes for signups on February 15th.

75 entries in one month....that's more than 2 per day. 1 per day is a little more realistic for people who work, go to school, have a family, etc...

Yes would it be possible to change the entries to around 50?

I agree with dangerine and jcm716 - 75 is an awful lot for just over a month to do it in. If you lessen the # I might join.

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

I have changed it to 40 entries. But don't forget that you can start now :)

Hugs, Amanda

This sounds like a great swap idea:-) I bought a journal the other day at Michaels for $1.00 and it even has a nice cover;-)
