Hi swappers! I am taking over hosting this monthly swap from isabellasnow for right now. This swap is for a handmade journal that you create. The minimum size for the journal is 5.5" wide by 8.5" tall (standard 8.5"x11" paper would work for this--just turn it sideways and fold). Have a decorated cover on the front of the journal that you create. The theme is sender's choice, although it would be nice if you looked at your partner's profile to see what they may like. You can bind the journal however you’d like. There are loads of YouTube tutorials on binding styles for handmade journals. Pamphlet stitch is probably the easiest, but you can use anything you like for your binding. The journal must have a minimum of at least 8 UNFOLDED pages. This means a stack of 8 entire 8.5"x11" pages, which will double the page count when folded. You may use an assortment of papers for the journal you create--not all of them will have the same measurement; however, the cover should measure approximately 5.5"x8.5". Please leave plenty of room for journaling. Make sure to include decorations, embellishments, tuck spots, pull-outs, pockets, tags, etc. and ephemera to your journal for fun interactive journaling. Hope to see you in the swap! |
