COLORIFFIC FEBRUARY 2008: THE FINAL SWAP

This is the very last official coloriffic swap-o-rama swap ever! There are so many color combos I did not get to do that I have decided the color combo will be up to YOU, the receiver! Each person will post their three favorite color combos. The person who is to send to you will choose one of those combos and will prepare the best package ever! Completely and utterly personalized. If they don;t pull it off we'll take away their yarn/fabric stash!

WHO: you and whomever else who is apart of the flickr coloriffic swaporama group

WHAT: a monthly color themed handmade swap to a “secret" person. (no peeking!)

WHERE: all over the world

WHY: because it is fun!

WHEN: You can sign up now between January 3 and the 8th. Packages are to be sent between January 26 and February 6. NOT sooner and NOT later.

HOW: to play along you must first be a member of the coloriffic group. this swap is a password only swap. to get the password, E-MAIL jek, genny, teresa, roxydynamite or julie k. To receive the password, you MUST include the following in your email. jek can be reached at jekinthebox AT gmail DOT com...

subject line must read: FEBRUARY swap. Include a link to your flickr page, yer swap-bot page and at least one of the GET TO KNOW ME topics in the group pool. OR, you can add those links to yer swap-bot profile page and simply email an admin the link to yer profile. If your email does not include appropriate links you will NOT be given the password and we will NOT send you a correction email. PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THE PASSWORD. this would not be fair to those who follow the directions.

does all that up there help?

COLORIFFIC SWAP-O-RAMA IS A MEMBERS ONLY SWAP

DON’T FORGET TO STICK YER FLICKR NAME SOMEWHERE ON YOUR SWAP-BOT PROFILE (no flickr name, no password!)

that way, the person who is sending to you will be able to spy and see what your likes & dislikes are. also, visit the group pool over on flickr and add your two cents to any one of the GET TO KNOW ME topics. you can find out fabulous info on the person you are sending to and you can give us all a clue as to what makes YOU tick. I think that covers all the bases except of course what type of package to send. there are 5 rules for a spiffy coloriffic package...

1. items must reflect the color theme of the month
2. there must be at least one handmade item
3. only send what you would LOVE to receive. think quality. be proud!
4. don’t make jek or genny be a bad cop. we HATE being bad cops! :)
5. HAVE FUN!

~jek, genny, julie, nienke, rachel & teresa

and as always send a thank you via email or handwritten to the person who sent to you and post pictures of what you send AND receive (use TAGS)! oh, and don't forget to rate yer person and swap coordinator (that's me!) !
