blue flower

I've really enjoyed the color themed swaps I've done lately (pink, purple, and brown). It's enough of a theme to give you a direction, but also leaves you with limitless possibilities...a shopping swappers dream!

So this swap will be all about the blue. Baby blue, true blue, navy blue, midnight blue, periwinkle blue, turquoise blue, robin's egg blue...etc.

This is a US only swap, as it's my first host and I want to get the hang of things before going international.

You will have one partner to send to. You should send a package that keeps true to the blue as much as possible and is worth at least $10 (pre-postage). I know I will be aiming for hearts by tailoring the package based on my partners profile and/or including extra items. I hope you'll aim for hearts too!

Here are some ideas of what you might include in your package:

blue pens or markers, blue notions (buttons, ribbon, fabric, lace), blue socks, blue nail polish, blue note cards, a blue ATC, blue stationary, body products that are blue or in a blue bottle, blue jewlery, blue candy, etc.

Please try to include at least one handmade blue item in your package. That is often my favorite part of a package. If you aren't inclined to get crafty, at least include a hand written letter please.

Be creative and have fun creating a package that only comes around once in a blue moon!

Please have a rating of 4.75 and zero no sends. Newbies are welcome; please have a well filled out profile and email me BEFORE you join.

Lastly, please rate your partner accordingly. When you receive your swap, rating them is a great way to let them know you received. If you get $10 worth of blue themed items that are postmarked by 07.11.07, rate them with a 5. If you get an extra special package tailored to your profile or worth more than $10, please add a heart!

If you have not received your swap in a timely manner, please email me and I will try to assist you in conacting your partner.

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this swap.

Happy Swapping!

I dont really have or collect alot of blue, but these swaps are so fun that I might just sign up...I am in so many right now so I will see what my schedule is closer to the deadline.

We'd love to have ya twistedwitchbitch! I actually planned this one to be sent during a lull in my current swaps. And I'm sure there'll be lots of lovely blue things to be had!

I love the color themed swaps, too. I can always start watching for things ahead of time--it makes you notice things you might not have noticed before, too.

I know now when I am out shoping blue will stick out most of all it did when I did the purple purple purple. Oh and blissful of course I would join your swap.

Rae, I was your partner in this swap and luckily saw your post about not getting the package I sent. I PM'd you tonight and if you haven't received it by now, I will send a second package right away.
