Description:

This swap is for a File Folder Flip Book. I have classified this a type 3 swap and to join you must maintain at least a 4.98 rating with no unexplained/unresolved 1's or 3's within the last 6 months & I reserve the right to ban anyone from this swap at any time and without explanation. Please also be aware that this is U.S only. You will have 1 partner for whom you will create a Senders Choice file folder flip book so you can get to work as soon as you hit that join button. Please use a standard size file folder that will fit easily into a file drawer. You can find them with pretty patterns & styles in 3 packs at the Dollar Tree, T.J. Maxx, Walmart and lots of other stores. Please leave the file folder whole and create all your major decor & ALL flips on the inside. Also, IF you choose to decorate the outside, only work with flat decorations, please, as these are meant to be stored side by side in a file drawer and we don't want the outer decor to get ruined. This means no 3D embellishments or layers that are not fully glued down on all edges. We are trying to keep the outside clean and simple. Also, you will then be able to mail flat & save more on postage costs. This format will make for easy storage. I hope this becomes a regular swap and my goal is to fill a whole file drawer with these! Here is an example I found on google.

I tried to find a good video that shows a tutorial or process with the file folder left whole and intact, but I haven't as of yet. If/when I do, I will post it, otherwise please refer to the pic as inspiration. I did find this one of a share, where it looks ALMOST whole and the front is mostly "flat decor". Please do not add the elastic closure shown in the video to your file. Your file flip book is senders choice. but please stuff it with some goodies that are profile based, to show you payed some attention to your partner. You should include 3 flips and one pocket or envelope - the envelope CAN be a flip! Also make sure you add a note to your partner and mark the file tab with the swap name, your name, your swap-bot id & the date. This will make it easy to find when filing it, lol. Please be sure to rate promptly and fairly. If you have any questions, please let me know. I try to check comments daily and always check/answer messages.

I'm interested in this but I don't really penpal and it seems these are mostly for penpals? Or no? Anyway, signups end today so I doubt I can figure it all out by then but I would LOVE it if you all could post pictures of your folders with links here or on the PF, or even PM me! That way I can see what's what and join in the next one hopefully. :) I will watch this space. Thanks!
