Description:
For this swap, instead of just contributing items for your partner's book page, you will "collaborate" by contributing your own creative efforts. Theme is sender's choice and should include a full selection of items for your partner's 2-page spread. The collaboration part is that at least 3 of the items should be something you've created - such as a doodle, zentangle, drawing, painting, ATC, inchie, homemade paper, even a flat crocheted or sewn piece - whatever you are inspired to do. If it's not clear what was created, please let your partner know. As always, be sure to include your information and the swap name somewhere in the envelope. And it's awesome to post what you received and your final product on the Flickr page. It's so much fun to see!

Sounds fun. Just to clarify, how many items in total?

The usual amount for a two page spread with at least 3 if the items made by you! :)

So glad you all are excited! Just wanted to confirm what @ShannonArtsyFartsy said. The package should contain at least 3 items made by you and enough additional items that your partner can complete the usual 2-page spread.

Since I am a new member to the group, what size is the "usual 2-page spread"?? Books come in all sizes so I am not clear on how much to include in "the usual" swap.

@AmyMarie - great question. I never really asked that question myself, I just know I've sent and received enough to give some good choices and alternatives. Each package I've gotten has included a few background options, some main images and some other images, and a few embellishment options. My book happens to be pretty large but I've never found that a challenge with my packets. In the end I think it comes down to send something that would make you happy and it will probably be just right.

You might also check our the group Flickr page. The link is on the group page. I'm also going to start a discussion thread on the group page where people might share details about their books.
