Description:
We have all been going to town creating amazing watercolor flowers and leaves. If you have extra and want to trade some, this is the swap for you. We will swap with two partners. Pick out 5 flowers and 5 leaves for each partner. Everything will be able to fit in one regular sized envelope and be less than 1 oz. You will send an envelope of five flowers and five leaves to TWO randomly assigned partners. This is an international swap. You may be assigned a partner from the US or one of the many countries that our artist are located in. From the US 10 small items should be less than 1 oz. The new international stamp will be (for most countries) $1.30 Requirements • Send 5 flowers and 5 leaves based on the October lessons to each partner. • Include a note with your Swap-Bot name • Send by October 25th. I will assign your partner on October 20th. ( The last day to sign up is October 19th) Information on rating for new members The purpose of rating is to create a trusted swapping environment. Since we all put a lot of work into our art and are excited to exchange with other fodder students, it helps make sure people send the swaps they promise. I will track who sends swaps. If you never receive a swap let me know and I will make sure you get flowers and leaves. If you receive a swap that meets the requirements above, please leave feedback according to Swap Bot Rules. • 5 - Swap met requirements • 3 - Swap didn't meet requirements • 1 - You didn't receive anything.

Today I am assigning partners. For all the people new to using Swap Bot to organize swaps I am here to answer all your questions. If you have questions about sending to your partners, or about receiving a swap, or how to rate the swap ( ect) just let me know. Send me an email ( see "contact" at the top of this swap by my name)

I am so glad you have all joined this swap group. I am looking forward to a year of swapping fodder.

One more thing.... Some people have put information in their profile about themselves. For instance since I have been using this platform awhile and participate in swaps in other groups you can see alot about things I do for fun/ like/dislike. If your partner has a filled out profile go check it out. It is fun to read and you might find a person with the same hobbies as you.

This is a senders choice swap so you do not need to make new items to match a persons profile. But if you have options from the flowers and leaves you already made that match the persons favorite colors feel free to customize what you send.

I have not received anything yet. :(

If anyone is waiting on swaps from Australia and New Zealand please be patient.

I have found out that mail between the USA and Australia and New Zealand has real problems. More so especially if you are trying to send from the USA to Aus. or NZ.

It is apparently all due to the CoVid virus pandemic.

One of my partners has finally just received her swap 22nd Nov and I posted it on 24th Oct, so it is taking 4 to 6 weeks to reach the USA from Australia, if not longer.

Take care and keep creating. Marion

My two partners who are both in the USA have finally just received their swaps from me - I live in Australia, it took approximately 5 weeks for the swaps to arrive in their mail box after I posted them.

I just received one of my USA partner swaps, on the back of the envelope there was a postmark of the 26th October 2021 and I finally got it in my letterbox on the 28th January 2022. The snail mail between the USA and Australia is finally getting through. Thank-you so much to Jen, I have left my rating for you. And to my other partner, I am still very hopeful. Marion K
