Description:

This swap was orignally started by @Rainydaygold , who is no longer here. I wanted to get it started back up, but am not taking credit for it.

For this swap, you will take 2 3x5 index cards(or you can use cardstock, just make sure its sturdy),decorate it nicely,and write your favorite verses on it.One verse per card Make sure you include the scripture reference on it as well. You will have 3 partners for a total of 6 cards.

WHAT IS IT? This is a swap for Christians that enjoy reading, memorizing, meditating and praying scripture. What we're doing is starting a collection of decorated scripture cards; you can buy an index card file box at an office supply store and keep your cards in it.

HOW DO YOU DO IT? Using 3" X 5" index cards (colored or white cards, ruled or unruled cards is up to the sender what type of card to use). You may use regular cardstock cut to the 3" X 5" guidelines too if you prefer not to use index cards.

On one side of the card write the scripture including the reference information (book, chapter and verse) and which Bible version you're using (NIV, KJV, etc.,). Make it legible, if your handwriting is hard to read that's okay just type it out and glue it on. If you have rubber stamps with scriptures on them then you can use them too.

On the other side of the index card you can leave it blank or you can write the same scripture using a different version. For example: You may write a verse on one side from the NIV and then on the other side of the index card write the same verse using the KJV.

To decorate you may paint, draw or use stickers, rubber stamps, etc., and make a nice border around the verse(s) or you can put the verse on one side and use the other side to make an inspirational or cheerful picture.

HOW OFTEN WILL I POST NEW SWAPS IN THIS SERIES? Once a month WHO CAN SIGN UP? Newbies welcome, as we all have to start somewhere. Everyone else must have high numbers to join. If you seem fishy then I reserve the right to ban you, as I want everyone in the swap to be committed to getting the scripture cards done and mailed out. Enjoy!

MAY YOU BE BLESSED THIS MONTH AND MAY YOU BE A BLESSING TO OTHERS!
