Description:

this is a bit different but I think it will be fun

USA only one partner

signup end date and mail out date are only going to be a couple of weeks apart since you can start filling this up as soon as you sign up.

first get a full size pringles can it says net wt. 6 oz. empty it and wipe it out really good.

Part 1

choose at least 10 items form the list below try for more aim for hearts

you may use items you have around the house for this part as long as they are in good condition do not send anything old or dirty only send things you would like to receive

except for really tiny items like brads and eyelets put the items in the can loose it will hold more and be more fun to go thru

Be sure to shake the contents of your can every now and then so that you will have room for everything

6 ft. fun fibers,

4 ft of ribbon these can be all one kind or pieces but each piece should be at least 6 inches long

20 brads, (put in small baggie) 20 eyelets (put in small baggie) 25 beads, no seed beads or pony beads 5 keys 10 game pieces 10 scrabble tiles 10 puzzle pieces 5 ft. colored tape, roll up don't fold 10 small diecuts 10 small found objects that will work for ATC's or altered art 20 buttons 5 bottle caps 5 slide mounts 5 tiny bottles 5 ticket stubs 2 skeins of embrodery floss 20 loose stickers ( no school stickers Please) 10 charms

Part 2 choose 5 items from the list below send more if you can

these items should be new They should not be in their orginal packageing since a lot of these items you can buy in a set and you only need to send one unless otherwise noted and they will take up to much room in the packages

1 jar of Embrossing powder

1 bottle of Luminars (put in ziplock to prevent spilling)

sparkling H2'S

2 cat eye ink pads

Alcohol inks (put in ziplock to prevent spilling)

a tube of holeless beads

a pair of decorative sissors

3 sharpies different colors

3 gel pens different colors

1 gold leaf pen

2 glue sticks

roll of double sided tape

a paper punch

3 unmounted rubber stams ( at least 1 inch or bigger)

shake it again I have my can filled to this point and it is a little over half full and I put in more that the required amouts of both parts

depending on the items you choose you may have more or less space left

so we still have room so on to

part 3

fill it up with small items that can be used for ATC's or altered art projects this can be anything but no more than 10 of any one item. make sure you put in nice usuable items only send things you would like to get

some ideas but not limited to

washers clock or watch parts fake flower petals small ploymer clay pieces like faces,flowers or whatever you have broken jewerly small wooden,plastic,or metal shapes plastic bingo markers mini dominos tiny leather scraps no more that an inch or two in size dice mini playing cards inchies small feathers

the ideas are endless have fun and be creative

when you think is full shake it again make sure its really full if not add some more stuff

try to find items that aren't listed in parts one and two.

most important thing is to have fun gathering your items up for your partner

ok on to part 4 last part and this is easy

put the lid on tape it on really well

print or type an address lable with your partners name and tape it to your can if you use self adheasive lables put tape over it take it to the PO and get a deliver confirmation number and post confirmation number in the commints section be sure to say who is receiving it do not cover or decorate your can just send it as is with a address label don't forget your return address

set back and wait for your package to arrive

please be sure to rate your partner if they add extras items from the first two lists please give them a heart.

ok on to the not so fun part

anyone with a 4.5 or higher and no recent no sends may play

if you don't have a 4.5 send me an e-mail and tell me why

Newbies may play in this if you have a completly filled out profile not just a line or two

Please do not join if you do not plan to send

I want everyone to have a fun package to go thru

again have fun

if you have any questions e-mail me or put it in the commints section

if you have any ideas for part 3 please put them in the comments sections might help anyone who is having a hard time coming up with items to finish filling thier can
