Description:

There are always plenty of swaps for envies of paper scraps but you rarely see themed ones, so I thought I'd do a few. The theme for the first one is "Old fashioned"--I chose this instead of "Vintage" because these days Vintage can mean anything up through the '80s and I want this to be older than that.

You can include anything from actual old papers (book pages, magazine ads, newspaper, whatever) to scrapbooking paper designed to look old, or papers you just think would fit in well with the old fashioned ones. These should mostly be functional as background papers, but some images/ephemera/embellishment type papers would be ok too.

You will be sending each of your three partners a Number 10 envie (these are the ones about 4 inches by 9 inches) full of scraps which must include at least 10 pieces ATC size (2.5 by 3.5 inches) or larger. You should fill the envie well, but any scraps beyond the original 10 can be any size. This is a relatively quick turnaround swap since it's meant to be a destash.

Nitty gritty: Ratings of at least 4.9--if you have any ones or threes that aren't explained in the rating comments, PM me BEFORE you sign up. I reserve the right to ban anyone. Newbies allowed with a fully filled out profile--that means more than a paragraph. Be sure to put your name, swap-bot name, and the name of the swap on/in your package somewhere. It's nice to include a note.

Too bad not more people signed up for this one. I thought it was a fun one to put together!

I agree, couchart. Perhaps I'll do another with this theme sometime after the holidays.
