Description:

I seem to remember a swap of this sort in the past and I'm in need a creative challenge, I'm in a rut!

When you sign up for this swap, put three challenge image ideas below in the comments.

You are signing up to create one of the challenge images your partner will have posted below. Pick one of the three suggestions, carve the image (minimum size is approximately 1" x 1"- no maximum), then send your partner their image stamped at least 5 times. You can stamp it onto sticker paper, cardstock, envelopes, decorative paper, a postcard, etc. Get as creative as you like. Mail the 5 stamped images to your partner by the deadline.

Please be sure to do work you'd like to receive! If your partner has images you aren't comfortable trying to create it is up to you to message them and negotiate! I'm putting the send date out a month to give time for botched attempts and practice if needed. You can always mail before the send deadline! When you receive your swap don't be harsh, the person may be trying a new craft and not up to your skill level. They've met the requirements if the image is identifiable and it was stamped a minimum of 5 times.

I will be checking profiles and asking questions as needed. I will also angel as needed but will be pretty vocal about flakers! Hope this sounds like fun!!

I love this idea! I challenge my partner to create one of the following:
• a panda bear
• a stamp that says "Happy Mail" (can get creative with images/style if you like)
• a poppy flower blossom (or the whole flower/plant if you'd like)

I would love you to carve one of these - puppy, horse, or a bicycle. I know those are challenging, but they can be very simple and it is a challenge after all. :)

I'd love to get a calico cat, a mailbox or a beaver 😉
