This swap is for anyone who loves to make their own envelopes.

Each participant will create an assortment of 10 handmade envelopes of any size, style, or color, and in return will receive 10 handmade ones from their partner. The envelopes can be made from any sort of paper (store-bought, clipped from a magazine, handmade paper, etc.), decorated however you like, and/or in any sort of style. Anything goes, as long as each envelope is handmade, and variety is definitely a good thing.

Please try to make envelopes that your partner would like. Make sure to read their profile first for any favorite colors or designs that might help.

Make sure to package your envelopes with cardboard or some other support, so they won't be damaged during shipping.

Feel free to post photos of your sent or received envelopes to the Envelopes group on Flickr.

Is there a preferred size? I see this is an International swap and I am not sure what sizes are best for people to use when people are mailing inside their home countries.

Whooops...sorry...I see the guidelines say "any size" Apologies.

mwquilt: Any size is ok, but if you would prefer they be mailable, please let your partner know (posting here is ok). It might be hard to get the exact dimensions, depending on the country, but if you don't want tiny envelopes or something, please say so. :)

I'm watching this one -- looks great, and right up my alley, but I might be kind of busy at the beginning of August.
