Description:

I've been feeling the pinch lately due to my obsession with swap-bot but I still can't break my addiction! :) Especially when it comes to collecting bits and pieces or odds and ends..oh wait! Isn't that what you might consider ephemera!? :)

For this swap you will fill a 4x6 envie with Art Journal Fodder!

Clarifications:

•A 4x6 envie is the minimum size. Feel free to send a larger envelope if you have a lot of things you can no longer use or want to share. (Don't you all just love the generous swappers!?)

•Ideally this swap should only require one stamp (unless your partner is international, but still it'll be relatively cheap). However, if you're like me, you know how hard it can be to keep your goodies down to what can be sent with a single stamp

•Fodder. Some people may ask what exactly IS fodder? Fodder consists of all of those wonderful bits and pieces of ephemera, paper scraps, die cuts, words, images, tags, old book pages, transparencies, photo mounts, etc, etc, etc.

•Also include a small scrap with at least TWO art journal prompts for your partner!!

•Please include only stuff you would like to receive. I like to recommend sending things that you love to share with your fellow artists, and/or those bits and pieces you've been saving up for "someday" only have never really found "someday" to come around :) Please don't send the junk you can't stand or junk stuff that you got in another swap and don't like or want.

Any questions/comments/improvements please send me a message!!!

Happy Swapping!!

Would it be allright to include things like a pen or rubber stamp?

Sorry for the silly question but please can you further explain "Also include a small scrap with at least TWO art journal prompts for your partner!!" does this mean we write two promps on an included note?

Coco26 03/12/2012 #

There's no such thing as a silly question! Yep, you're correct! It doesn't have to be on the note exactly, it can be a decorated insert, a separate card they can glue/fasten into their art journal, or it can be on something unusual like written around the edges of an image.

It's alright to include anything extra! The requirements are just the MINIMUMS for a swap. I can't think of anyone that would be upset if you went above and beyond the requirements of a swap. And P.S. piratecaptainmo... I like the way you think! :)

can the insert be an envelope? like a decorated one? or a flat knitted or crochet items? may cross stitch or embroidered?
