Description:

Easy swap, but can be timetaking. Send 25 clippings to your partner. These clippings can be cut out of magazines, books, hobbysheets, junkmail or flyers.

@Grandmaroro cuts the images roughly from the magazines. @Taeniura clips each image neatly and precisely.

The clippings must be usable for atc, journals or handmade postcards. So don't send very tiny or very big ones.

Send only clippings from the listed subjects. Make sure you send at least 7 different subjects, with a maximum of 5 clippings for each subject. Choose attractive images which your partner can use again in craftworks. You can already start clipping, the clippings are sender's choice.

Include a little note to explain which subjects you have chosen, the name of the swap and your swapbot name. No unrated swappers allowed.

Oh my - the cutouts you sent are much smaller that the ones I had found, so I will spend tomorrow looking for smaller ones for you. I definitely do not want to disappoint you. Thanks again.

I can use bigger ones too for altered books. Don't make it too difficult for yourself. I hope my clippings were not too small?

Wonderful - you are just too kind. The tinies are a real treat as I want to collage dominoes, as well as decoupage some, for pendants. If I am successful, would you like one? I have found some lovely necklaces that I can make even with my limited eyesight.

My quest for smaller images has been a lot of fun - I have found lots of goodies that I had forgotten about and am glad to have found. LOL Now, off to get your envelope ready.

I only see your comment now. It sounds very interesting what you do with the clippings. But I'm not a jewelry person. But I'd LOVE to see photo's of what you're making!
