Description:

I decided to put together this swap for all of us who love to take the time to make things extra-special for our swap partners, and love to send internationally, but may prefer a lower-postage swap. :) I'm hoping that everyone will enjoy this and will continue to host profile-based sticker sheet swaps if I get a positive response!

It was inspired by a simple sticker swap where I spent (and enjoyed) lots of time checking through my partners' profiles, carefully choosing stickers for each of my partners based on their "likes" and passions. I had such fun doing this, and they were so happy to get something that suited them and wouldn't be regifted, that it almost didn't matter to me what I got in return. As in all our group swaps, I would like to share both the excitement of choosing something just right for someone, and the excitement of receiving something thoughtfully chosen just for you.

All group members must maintain well-filled-out profiles and meet the requirement of at least a 4.98 rating to join. In the unlikely event that it's necessary, I will angel this swap after you have attempted to contact your partner and honestly rated a "1" for a no-send.

Here are the rules:


As with all of our swaps:

♥ Read through your partner's complete profile, so you don't miss out on something important (loves bears but is not into cartoons or "kid stuff?"--best to save Winnie the Pooh and his pals for someone who will appreciate them), or an exciting idea that you'll enjoy even more than the first thing you might have latched onto. Always try to send your swap partners things related to their interests that will make them smile :)

♥Be certain to check for your partner's dislikes and avoid sending them, so you don't unintentionally spoil what would otherwise be an absolute delight


You will send your partner 1 envelope of 3 full-sized sticker sheets (in like-new or new condition, with none missing) based on their list of likes (and avoiding their dislikes). Please, no teacher or reward stickers unless your partner's profile specifically states that s/he wants them.

In order to receive a 5, your items should meet the above criteria and be sent out by the required send date.

Please rate anyone a 5 as long as they meet these criteria. Hearts are of course at your own discretion.

This is a fairly quick turn-around swap compared to some of ours. Please do not sign up if you can't get your envelope ready to send out by the send date.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Have fun swapping!

Is it Okay to carefully cut around the middle of a sticker sheet to make it fit inside an envie, if needed?

phillaine 10/21/2015 #

@CariPeace that should be fine. If anyone has strong objections, please let me know. I know I've gotten some LONG strips of stickers that I needed to cut in half to even fit in a standard envelope. As long as it's only cut in half and makes a complete sheet, it counts as one. Thanks for asking so I could clarify this!

I need to ask something: what does "full-sized" mean in this case? I collect stickers and want to join, but dont want to do anything wrong and maybe the normal size of sticker sheets differs in the US and Europe? Do "full-sized" sheets fit inside a normal envelope?

phillaine 11/ 5/2015 #

@Arhel I'm so sorry I didn't see your message sooner. Of course dimensions vary, but I've seen full sticker sheets here on swap-bot usually defined as having 6,8, or more "thumbnail-sized" or larger stickers. It's more about sending a full sheet (you haven't cut any off) of high-quality stickers than a specific number or size, though most people don't care for smaller/reward stickers. For example, if they're much larger (like some of the Cavallini stickers, for instance) they might have fewer, but excellent quality (their sheets range from 4-12) stickers per sheet. I hope this helps, and will try to add clarification in future swaps. Thank you!
