55c New Year Swap

I have done this one on another forum and found it very popular...it entails everyone filling up an envelope with the odds and ends they no longer use and sending it on to someone else. When we have called for sign ups I will randomly draw people's names out of the hat, or should I say my daughter will (makes her feel important) and we can get this under way...simply reply if you wish to be part of this swap...we will call it HAPPY NEW YEAR Swap, sign up deadline is December 29th!

Hi Vicki,
What size envelope would it be? & when would you have to have it sent by? also what sort of things normally get sent & is there a $$$ limit?
Many Thanks

Hi Vicki,

I'm new to the swap thing too - can you give us newbies a bit more of an idea of what sort of things, envelope sizes etc

Ok here is a rundown

Envlopes are just normal size...we usually give 2 weeks for members to send their gifts out...there is a $5 - $6 limit and things like unused rub ons, die cuts, flowers, brads, stickers etc, anything that you can fit in just a normal sized envelope...for example, you have a half sheet of alphabet stickers not used, you could include that, certain die cuts lying around that you don't need anymore, include those, too many flowers in your stash, why not send those, not to mention buttons and brads...hope that explains it a little better?

2. Bellbaker.
3. Mandad6
4. SkrapPrincess

If you wouldn't prefer to opt out, please just remove your name. Just thought I'd make the list a bit easier to see/read.

Anymore takers for our first 55c swap?
