Description:
Thanks for stopping by! I am new to cardmaking but have SO much fun finding creative ways of decorating - and I love embellishiments! And, I know embellishments can be used with ATC's, ACEO's, Collage Art, Postcards...endless uses! In this swap, you will send one partner 50 embellishments. Some examples: brads flowers leaves eyelets very unique papers stickers rhinestones glitter, glitter glue, glitter pens dots glue sticks chipboard buttons ribbon Endless possiblities!!! I only ask that you do not send scraps or cutouts from other cards or magazines. These embellishments should be in great condition. Please check out your partner's profile and send goodies they'd like to receive. Nitty-gritty! It should be worth between $8-$10 or so. You must have a rating of 4.8, have absolutely no no-sends, and at least 4 package swaps completed. I will be checking profiles before I assign partners. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns!

quick question regarding quantity. If I am sending a cardstock sticker sheet that has 5 large stickers on it, does the seet count as one itor can I count each sticker as an item. What about things like button, brads, adhesive backed gems? How do we count those. thanks a bunch

I didn't see this question! @igobylorib I'd say use common sense and be generous. ;) Maybe, 10 buttons, or 5 interesting brads, or 7 gems, equals 1 item, the cardstock sticker sheet equals 5 items because they are large or maybe more expensive.

This swap is a bit tricky in that way - but I'd say if you err on the side of generosity, I'd hope we're not all micro counting our returns but thoroughly enjoying what our partners have sent to us because they read our profiles and are sending items we will love!

I hope this helps - if not, we can set some more concrete rules if need be. Don't hesitate to contact me!!!

Thanks!

I am always on the generous side and just wanted to throw the question out there incase others had the same question in there mind. I wouldn't count each brad or button and assume others aren't as well. I just wasn't sure what those in the swap were thinking when counting.

I've been thinking, "One, two, three..." ;)

But seriously, I'm counting to 50 and then adding a few more things to make it fun for my partner. Thank you, though, @igobylorib for asking about this. The clarifications have been helpful for me, too.

Thanks, both of you! :)

To all of you! ;)

Happy Swapping! (emphasis on 'happy'!!!)
