Are the papers meant to be removable so they can be used?

Do you have a sample of a Paper Artists Sample Book. I don't understand exactly what you are requesting swappers to make.

The papers used to make the book need not be removable. But, if you are clever enough to come up with a way to do that, please do! :) I plan to make a small book with lots of pockets in it. In each pocket I will place a paper artist's goodie. Some things I have in mind are lace, trims, stamped images, vintage postcards... I don't know of any on-line examples of a sample book. This is a chance to use your own creativity.
A google search for "file folder mini album" will yield lots of tutorials about making a pocket filled book from a file folder. That might get your creative juices flowing.

Here is a link to a couple of photos of a sample tea book I did for a friend. It may give you some further ideas. http://www.flickr.com/photos/50828502@N04/
