MAE: A TAG & A JOURNAL CARD SWAP

This is a NEW swap idea! Hope you will like it!

For this swap, we will be making & swapping a tag & a matching journal card. They will not be identical, but they have to look like they belong together, as a set.

The size of the tag will be 3"x6".

The size of the journal card will be 4"x6".

Theme: Mardi Gras

As usual, we will make our bases with a piece of sturdy cardboard, such as a cereal box.

Embellish by using scrapbook paper, book pages, music sheets, die cuts, words, fabric, lace, bling, charms, eyelets, anything. Create lovely layers. The items you can use are endless.

Note: Slapping on a couple pieces of paper or stickers is not good enough. Have a variety of items. Each item you use should vary in size, so your tag & journal card will look lovely. And it will still be pretty flat for the post office.

You can get started with making your items right away. Then, when partners are chosen, you can send them out quickly. If you run into any problems, communicate with your partner. This is a requirement, not a suggestion.

And if you have a question about this swap, contact me directly; do not message me below, because I probably won't see it!

Create something beautiful that you would like to receive. Be creative!

Remember to put your name & your Swap-Bot name on the back of each item, along with the swap name & date you made the tag. You can also add your address or email, but at the very least, write your town/state/country on the back of each tag. I, personally, love to look back on these tags & see who made them for me!

And, most of all, have fun!
