Are there rating requirements?

80sgurl23 02/24/2013 #

i try not to do that! as long as your following the swap every one should be giving every one 5's. unless you fail to do that then rate accordingly. I just ask every one to be fair and to communicate before giving low scores please! does that answer your questions @kogeliz

I love this swap though I have a few questions:

  • Labelbag: so far I haven't come across any labelbags in the store (just labels). So do you just buy one of those goody bags from the store and fill it with labels? How many labels need to be in it?

  • Friendsbook (that's FB, right?): I've only just started scrapbooking and this will be my first ATC, so I don't see myself crafting an FB just yet. I plan to buy them. But. I'm Dutch. So the book will be entirely in Dutch, which can be a little... inconvenient. I'd be happy to include a translation on a loose sheet, but... well... is this okay? Or do I have the completely wrong idea of FBs? Or should I just buy notebooks and leave it to the receiver to make an FB out of it?

Sorry to ask so many questions, I'm a Newbie!

Label bag's and friendship books you make not buy.Friendship books can be something simple like stapling some pages together to something more creative like Decos which are decorated friendship books. The purpose of friendship books is to find penpals and to share a little about you and your interests. Label bags are another form of FB's. They are envelopes that contain labels of penpals. You only need to place your label address inside and make the label bags according to the instructions. Then sign at the back and you are ready to pass it to a friend.

i hope thats helps!

and could you make your stuff in english please or try your best @pouffia , and i gave you what a lb and fb are above!

Pouffia 02/26/2013 #

Thanks a lot, that helped. But just for verification purposes, this is the way I understand it:

  • I make 2 booklets (friendship booklets), put my address in it and possibly a bit more info, and send it to my partner. My partner could then take me up as a pen pal. When my partner sends the FBs I made to other people, they can try to become pen pals with me as well.

  • The Label Bags: I take an envelope (or craft one), put a label with my address in it, and send it. You say "sign at the back". At the back of the label or the envelope? (The label seems pointless because it already has my address on it?) And what exactly do I sign? Just my name and best regards?

Also, what does the receiver do with the label bags? Do they send it to other people so they can put their label in and pick a pen pal as well, or do they keep the label bag and just fill it with labels? (You mention the instructions but I'm not sure what instructions you're talking about?)

Pouffia 02/26/2013 #

Oh, and English is not a problem.

Pouffia 02/27/2013 #

Well, nevermind. I'm dropping out since I'm not actively looking for new pen pals. Thanks anyway.
