Description:

This swap runs at the same time as Page I.

For this swap you take a page from the dictionary (no copies, actual pages), pick a word, and illustrate it. The book page in the above is a nice example, but in this case the illustration must relate to the word and you must highlight the word and the definition. How you make the word stand out is entirely your choice. If you use a dictionary that's not in English, translate the word and the definitions.

Don't just put a sticker/magazine clipping on it and send it out. Put some work into it, make it nice to look at. All materials are A Okay. Don't fold the page when you send it out. Find (or make) an envelope in which it will fit without creasing.

This swap goes from A to Z. For this swap, we continue with the letter H. The page can't be larger than A4 size and can't be smaller than A5 size (give or take a little here and there, just no A6 and A3). Paper size chart , under Metric Names.

When all swaps are done, we'll have our own illustrated (mini-)dictionary; all we have to do is bind it!

(Ratings of 4.8 and up. No recent 1s or 3s, I ban anyone I consider a risk. No unrated swappers.)

So I got a very small page in the G swap. The links to the size chart are not working tonight. I did get this info from the comments on a previous swap.... Is it correct?
Comment by @KraftyKaren 12/10/2013 # The size is not smaller than 5.8" x 8.3" but no bigger than 8.3" x 11.5".

So, I did just get this info from the hostess @Pouffia ... A5 = 5.8 x 8.3 inches A4 = 8.3 x 11.7 inches
Thanx for the INFO! ;-)

You're welcome. I put a new link up, it should work again.
