Journaling Throughout July

This is a fun journal swap! All you have to do is get a notebook/journal and fill it out through the month of July. Your journal needs to be at least 5 X 7 in size and no larger than 8 1/2" X 11".

The rules are simple:

1. Your cover must be labeled for the month of July. You can cut and paste a picture on to the cover, collage a cover, decoupauge something, draw your own cover; anything at all! Just make it pretty!

2. Record an entry of some kind every day starting July 1st. (Every page should have the date written or stamped at the top of the page. ) This can be a recipe, a quote, book/movie suggestions, a drawing, a collage, your thoughts on the day, pretty napkins, a magazine article you would like to share, puzzles, a greeting card, anything at all. (Nothing religious or political please.)

You can use scrapbooking paper, greeting cards, pretty napkins, washi tape, rubber stamps, ephemera, markers, pencils, crayons...ANYTHING.

Please take your time to make something your partner will enjoy looking through. Please do not just slap a few stickers on a page and call that a completed page!

Also, depending on the size of your journal, you may have unused pages at the end. That is fine as long as you've done your daily page/entry. Some journals have more pages than you will need. I This journal will starts on July 1st and ends on July 31st. So you should fill the journal throughout the month and mail it by August 12th, 2023.

Rating your partner is important. Please take the time to rate your partner. Your partner does not have to look at your profile for this swap. As long as they follow the simple rules stated above that is all that is required.

Please only join if you are able to do a nice job on your journal and are able to put some time and effort in to it!

I believe EVERYONE should have the ability to participate in a swap that interests them. I do not have "requirements" regarding ratings/number of swaps completed. I am aware that some people give unfair ratings and am willing to give everyone a chance. That being said I will be looking through profiles and will message people if needed in regards to low ratings, etc.

I plan on making this a monthly swap! It will be fun to collect journals! I myself am a 'Planner" and "memory keeper" and like to add things from others in my books! I am looking forward to doing this!

I hope you will join me and have some fun! :)
