Description:

This is the sixth of six Disney themed chunky page swaps. Each swap will run a month long. If you sign up for all swaps you will end up with 30 5x5 chunky pages, enough for a great big chunky book! Feel free to only sign up for the ones you want.
* The theme for this one is Disney Villains. * For this swap we will create TWO pages for 2 different swap partners. Your choice of any Disney Villain that you would like to use. I love the Villains & think without them the movies would be boring! :)

  • Pages are to be 5x5.
  • Please use sturdy cardstock or another sturdy paper as your base so your pages don't buckle over time due to the weight.
  • Do NOT bind pages since this is an ongoing swap.
  • Fibers and/or embellishments are expected since it is a chunky book.
  • Leave at least 1 inch on the left side free of any embellishments and fibers for binding purposes.
  • Please do not leave the backs blank. You do not have to decorate them but at least some paint or colored paper.
  • Please sign your pages on the back with your name, swap-bot user name, and the date.
  • You must have a rating of at least 4.7
  • No, no-sends for 2 months before the swap starts.
  • Newbies welcome with a completely filled out profile.
  • I will be banning people that don't meet the criteria on the last day of sign-ups.
  • International swap

If you have any questions just let me know.

I love Disney & I love chunky books so I am very excited about these swaps! I hope you are too! :)

I decided to add a bonus swap to this set. There are a total of 7 Disney chunky book swaps. If you do them all you will have a total of 35 pages!

A chunky page is basically a decorated (smallish - normally 4x4, 4 1/2 x 4, or in this case 5x5) page that includes fibers and embellishments that make the pages chunky (sometimes called fat books too.) The idea is that once you bind the pages that the book is not supposed to close. I was in a swap before where some of the girls took their pages and turned them into wall hangings by adding a ribbon hanger to them. I think that would be real cute with this Disney series. :)

  • Hope that helps, let me know if you have any other questions.

  • Here is a site that tells you more about a chunky (or fat) book.

I just wanted to remind everybody of this very important part of the swap directions:

Please use sturdy cardstock or another sturdy paper as your base so your pages don't buckle over time due to the weight.

Please do not make your card on flimsy cardstock. If you hold the page on one side and it starts to bend, it is way too thin. I personally either glue 3 pieces of med. cardstock together or I use cardstock and photo paper or I use a cut up cereal box and put patterned paper on either side. We all want your art to be able to hold up over time. :)

Thank you and Happy Swapping!
