Let's keep this series going :)

This time theme in an envie is... BLIND! Don't you sometimes just need some random inspiration? Are you bored with receiving everything you already collect? Do you want to see something new? Receive something different?

How to do this theme; Fill an envelope, minimum 1 ounce with paper / stationery / ephemera etc BEFORE PARTNERS ARE ASSIGNED. The idea is that you send your partner 0 profile based items. For some this can be a real challenge! And so it should be... no cheating! :)

You are not required to go out and buy gifts for your partner and send a package. This is a great opportunity to destash your paper and ephemera.

Ideas of what to include if your envelope; notecards, memos, ATC supplies, paper (nice) cut outs for collage, card toppers, washi tape/deco tape, smash book items, journal cards, postcards, stickers, embellishments, used stamps, book marks, tags, die cuts, craft paper, washi tape samples, tickets, cards, sticky notes, handmade items, stationery, mail art supplies, book pages, envelopes, ribbon, rubber stamps, prints, illustrations, beads, mixed media items, rub-ons, paper ephemera, vintage ephemera, photographs, bits of nice paper scraps, envelopes.. list is endless :)

You are welcome to include anything handmade which is why this swap is a type 3. You are not required to include ANYTHING handmade, although even just a decorated envelope is encouraged.

Sticking to theme send your partner an envelope full of items of your choice. Please try and choose a variety of things, not all the same. The minimum is 1 ounce. Please send only attractive things, papers/ephemera/craft items must be nice, not rubbish. Items you send could be used for mail art, paper projects, smash journalling/junking, ATC's, collections, etc so must be nice.

One piece counts as ONE, so you can't send for example 12 stickers and call it done, that's wrong. Anything identical/same counts as 1 piece, although paper ephemera/etc is unlimited given than each piece is different. Include a variety of items to fit theme, full the envie!

Although should be cheap and flat to post, as it is not a huge swap, please don't send the minimum possible; try & make your partner happy, and send a nice, decent sized swap for the requirements. Please try and FILL your envie. A package is not required; the type 3 is there for handmade items.

Any questions, or ideas of things that can be sent that I may have missed out, just comment below :) feel free to leave any suggestions for future themes below also.

Happy swapping!

@cutsiegirlynai I may be a little confused, is the theme just blind swap? Or is this a blind swap WITH a theme?
