Handmade Bookmark Swap (by: Helena8664)

For those of us who still read print books... I love handmade bookmarks - I feel they give more personality than the generic store-bought ones. So, for this swap, we will be trading homemade bookmarks! BUT, there's a twist...when you sign up, you will list FIVE themes you would like your bookmark to fit in. When partners are assigned, your partner will choose at least ONE of those themes to design your bookmark around. This will ensure you receive something you love. :)

RULES OF THE GAME:

• when you sign up for the swap, please list your 5 themes you'd like your partner to choose from

• you will have 1 partner to which you will send 1 personalized bookmark (from their list of 5 themes)

• there is no size requirement for the bookmark, nor does it need to be made out of paper, so long as it's within theme (I suggest Googling "handmade bookmark" to find some unique ideas)

• be sure to use sturdy backing/ material for the bookmark (not just a piece of paper that could rip with multiple uses)

• you may use any medium, so long as you don't slap a sticker on it and call it good....make it something you would want to receive...go for hearts! <3

• included somewhere in your swap package must be a card with your swapbot user ID, the date of the swap, and the swap name (easier for your partner to rate you)

• this swap will be regional, but PLEASE feel free to make an international version!

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

• if you are hoping to receive hearts, you may add extras to the package (though it's not required)

• you will have a three weeks after the signup date to create and send your bookmark, so there is no reason your package should be late! I will not be angeling this swap, so slackers and flakers need not join

• newbies are NOT welcome to this particular swap...MUST HAVE @ LEAST 5 TYPE 3 SWAPS UNDER YOUR BELT. (I will be checking profiles before assigning partners and reserve the right to ban anyone if I feel they are suspicious)

So, let's have fun with this! Anyone who has any questions, feel free to message/ PM me!
