ThaJulia, just letting you know that you have no say in who anyone gets as a partner. Swapbot does the matching up automatically so you get who you get :)

Thank you for inviting me to join, but I am not good enough at making envelopes yet to join the swap.

reikitah 04/ 2/2009 #

Brings back memories! I was taught how to make envelopes at summer camp when I was 10 in the 70's. My Den Mother, Mimi, showed me how. I'll practice a little to see if I still have the knack.

Willow 04/ 2/2009 #

Thanks for the invite, but I won't have time sorry. I'll be on vacation then.

Willow 04/ 2/2009 #

Plus, I don't know how to make envelopes lol.

AngieTheArtist 04/ 2/2009 #

I am sorry but this is not a good time for me on this swap. It is labor intensive as I have never done it before and I have a lot of obligations that i have already promised others. I am delighted that you thought to invite me though. Thanks

VampNStamp 04/ 3/2009 #

Thank you for the invite... it is on my watch list!

shinywen 04/ 7/2009 #

Thanks for the invite! Unfortunately I am totally swamped right now, and despite the fact that I make cards, I am really bad at making envelopes lol. But I appreciate the invite, and please let me know if you do any swaps in the future. <3

WarLordsWife 04/ 7/2009 #

I am watching this. Do you have a good pattern you can share? Please pm me. Mary

The easiest way to make an envelope is to take one you already have and gently take apart where it is stuck together. Trace the paper you want to make the new envie from, cut it out and fold them back together, using adhesive where needed. Im watching this one from now. But things from old calendars and magazine pages can be used. As well as patterned paper.

beadeful 04/13/2009 #

On my watchlist until I can clear a few out before last day.

Juliajae 04/15/2009 #

This was such a fun and easy swap. Really easy to be creative and go the extra mile also. Thanks for hosting ThaJulia! -Julia-

KimberlyJDC 04/15/2009 #

I would LOVE to join this swap but the turnaround time is to quick for me. I made my first envelope a few days ago so I'm eager to join a swap to see what others do. Please keep me in mind for next time!

Kicki 04/16/2009 #

What a fun swap, I´ll start making envelopes right now! I used to make my own years ago from old fashionmagazines but this time it´ll be just scrapbookingpaper I think. Great idea, please make this one again!

ladydy5 04/16/2009 #

I took an envelope apart and traced it. Easy....

CatieTheCat2009 04/17/2009 #

when do we get to know who to send to?

Creeny 04/18/2009 #

Sorry, had to drop...I won't be able to send in time, if partners are assigned so late...

copperboots 04/18/2009 #

sorry to drop as well.... it's 2 days before send out & I don't know who to send to I checked the rules & it stated it was fine as long as partners were not assigned

keller 04/19/2009 #

i am new here.. i have yet gotten the assigned partners.. im sending from malaysia and i don't think it will reach on time.. i had to drop.. im sorry

Juliajae 04/19/2009 #

Hi all! If partners aren't assigned by dinner time PST I will start a new swap and drop from this one. I was really looking forward to these and have mine all ready to go :) I'll send a note to those I can. Hopefully, we'll just get partners assigned.

JennieGee 04/19/2009 #

I will join the new swap if partners are not' assigned ASAP, JennieGee

MissU 04/19/2009 #

I was thinking about doing the same thing, Juliajae! Please invite me to your new swap.

Juliajae 04/19/2009 #

Here is a new swap: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/35491

printer 04/20/2009 #

I am dropping too--bummer, I was all ready to send.

neca84 04/20/2009 #

The due date on swaps is not when your partner is meant to have the items it is when you are supposed to have SENT the ittem, even though this host is being very slack in not assigning partners and it is past the date, I will join if there is a new swap and I am invited.

People should NOT host swaps if they do not follow the rules and assign partners on the date when they have said, This makes me very angry.

neca84 04/20/2009 #

I am leaving this swap and joining [This Swap}(http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/35491) poor hosting

neca84 04/20/2009 #

also poor typing....

I am leaving this swap and joining This Swap poor hosting

CatieTheCat2009 04/27/2009 #

sorry so many dropped, but reading back at the older comments, someone had said swapbot assigns the parnters and the host didnt ahve a say, so I could see how she got confussed about the partners. Im sure we've all goofed on something we did our first time or two, so I have no hard feelings.

It's way to easy for people to be jerks online. These people would never have the courage to be this rude in person.
