Description:

I did a version of this in the FAA LP group and I thought it would be a blast to do here where everyone is so diverse!

Everyone will have THREE partners, but that's the only way it will work so keep reading and don't be intimidated!!

Everyone will list in the comments section THREE themes that they would like for a Lucky Parcel, and then the person sending the parcels will look at all of their partners, and pick ONE word from EACH partner, and make THREE IDENTICAL lucky parcels for them!

So for example I get 3 partners, and they have these words:

Partner #1 - Butterflies, Houses, Brown Partner #2 - Kawaii, Green, Mushrooms Partner #3 - Polka dots, Halloween, Cats

I then decide to choose: Houses, Mushrooms and Polka dots. I make THREE of the same lucky parcel and send them out to my partners. How cute is that! The possibilities are endless and you are guaranteed to get at least one theme that you chose!

You will have one month to put this parcel together after partners are assigned as opposed to the usual 2 weeks.

MAKE SURE YOU POST YOUR THREE THEMES BELOW!

MAKE SURE YOUR PARCELS ARE ALL MORE OR LESS IDENTICAL.

MAKE SURE YOU PICK ONE WORD FROM EACH PARTNER!

Now that that's over let's look at some more basic stuff:

Open to Lucky Parcel group members only, with 3 partners, and this is international. Average dollar amount for each parcel should be $5.

~~~~~~~~

REMEMBER that the PARCEL is just as IMPORTANT as the rest of the swap. You want the bag/box/container that your swap goes into to be the thing that makes this a Lucky Parcel. Decorate it, make it cute! Check out FLICKR for ideas.

Remember to rate after you receive, please,and let's be patient when receiving international swaps! Exciting!!! Let's all do the mix up!

I'm just letting everyone know that I am going to be two days late with mailing mine out to my 3 partners. We are in the process of moving and things are between two houses. Also, this is a tiny town and the post office closed at 10am this morning and won't open again until Monday. Plus, my Swap-Bot stuff is at the old house, and my computer, which got hooked up last night, is at the new house. So my packages will be going out Monday morning. I will be putting up a photo on my Flickr, of the Heart-Leopard-Forest package contents in a few minutes if anyone wants to look. Everything is packaged and ready to go now. So sorry for the delay.
