CRAFT SWAP NAMES PLEASE

79 replies

Peachyclair · 21/04/2006 10:57

OK, have been promising this for a while, so if you've overspent you still HAVE to do it Wink

Theme for swap will be: SUMMER!!! (Coz I'd like one, please Grin)

To take part e-mail your details to [email protected], and leave a name underneath so I can check if i got your message. Pease put your MN name on the e-mail as this is my first swap to run. Ta. Also please tell me any hates / preferences and if you want to, specify scrapbooking, cardmaking, or general craft tart Wink.

Gifts to go out by May 20th, thereby crossing a pay day for everyone I would have thought, and indeed the student grant season.

Parcels should contain:

something shiny
something natural (so paper, dried flowers, shells, silk ribbon etc etc etc)
something girly
something masculine (can be boy if a problem, so train ribbon or whatever)

then make up to £12 with a present of your choice

And finally, add a card you've made if possible.

Thanks.

please do join in or I'll think I am billy no mates......

Thanks guys.

Whizzz- still noyt getting your e-mail but I have yours from the jewellery anyway somewhere, will dig it out.

Have CAT'd kickassangel and Jamsam- sistwosix won't accept CAts, so can't.

guys, if you want to beincluded have set a deadline for your details of Tuesday evening. All ebing well, swap partners will be e-mailed after dinner Tuesday.

I will go with those who have expressed an opinion and say £12 including P&P, but it is obviously at your discretion exactly what you spend.

And don't forget the summer theme. Grin
