Description:

The holiday season approaches, so let's make a fun junk journal for Halloween to send to a partner. Here are the guidelines; the rest is up to you.

This swap is USA only for those who can't afford international postage.

  • the journal should have a Halloween theme. You may use scrapbook paper as an accent and/or decorative element. You can be as be creative as you'd like in the papers that you use for pages. Scrapbook papers can be used for the tags/insert pieces
  • each two-page spread should have at least one Halloween element
  • it is fine to use stickers on some pages as decorative items, but please use other items as well
  • journal should have at least 12 separate pages/leaves (or at least 24 pages counting front and back)
  • make whatever type of cover you'd like. Decorate the cover, but do leave room for your partner to add personal touches.
  • bind any way you choose
  • please keep the size of the journal under 8X10. You might check with your partner to see what size they would like..
  • add at least two pockets and two tags/tuck-ins
  • let's recycle and re-purpose papers as much as possible.

If you have any Halloween themes that you really like or intensely dislike, please say so in the comments section. I would ask that you try to honor your partner's likes and dislikes, but this is sender's choice in the end.

If you have questions, please ask.

I will angel if you don't receive a swap.

Swap requirements: You'll need to have a rating of 4.90 or better and a well filled-out profile. Newbies are welcome with a completed profile. No recent or unexplained 1s or 3s. No flakers.

I am setting the swap so that the Swap-bot software will automatically refuse anyone who does not meet the 4.90 minimum requirement, unless you are new and unrated.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE bats, but I don't like bloody/gorey Halloween stuff.

Can this be one of those made out of paper sacks, folded in half and then the pages reinforced with card stock and such?

pennypuppy 08/28/2013 #

I LOVE black cats, witches, ghosts, skeletons. PLEASE DO NOT send me gory stuff. Thanks!

Hello! PLEASE, I am with pennypuppy and joyceann! NO gory stuff for me, either! I love the Gothy/black cats, bats and gargoyle that creep out during Halloween, or the witches that soar across the sky in the silvery Moonlight...that sorta thing! :D

plushiecat 09/ 3/2013 #

Oh! (whoops!) NO spiders/bugs/creepy-crawlies for me either, please!)

No bloody or gory stuff for me either please. I like vintage the best, tim holtz style and graphic 45 are my favorites. thanks
