Description:

Who loves journaling? This swap is for you, you need to do a journal all about you, this will be for three months over the summer period, you need to have the following and put them into chapters with contents: 1. About me 2. My family 3. My hobbies and interests 4. My likes 5. My dislikes 6. Places visited 7. My future plans 8. Other information

OK you can add more chapters as you go along, you can draw, and add photos, as it will make your book more interesting for your partner who reads all about you, if you want to add something else all about you its up to you. It can be written in a small notebook of no more than 96 pages. You do not need to fill it all you but at least 80%. I have got the idea from a book in french and thought about us all getting our creative ideas together and creating one for our partner. I hope that lots of you will take part, it will be a fun swap, all are welcome including newbies. I will not be able to angel this swap, so I will check profiles and ban as necessary.

Would it be okay to do the journaling in an old altered book? :-)

Hollyvia 05/13/2009 #

kimpulse 05/13/2009 #

would one sheet of paper count as one page or two pages?

missmonroeville 05/13/2009 #

I like the sound of this. It's on my watchlist for the moment.

violin21 05/13/2009 #

No problems Midnightshadow it would be great that you join in and Sugarbun one A4 sheet of paper is classed as two pages when folded in half. It would be great that you all join in the swap :)

there's a minimum of pages ?

violin21 05/21/2009 #

A minimum of a small note book would be 80% filled, I have bought a small notebook with 96 pages and with pictures, drawings etc you can easily fill it up. I hope this helps inlovingmemory88 and that you will join the swap, :)

Can you show the picture of your notebook or some link?Thank you.

secretterrabite 05/23/2009 #

This sounds a really cool swap. Can it be a handmade journal with painted/arty pages or does it have to be just a written notepad?

violin21 05/23/2009 #

It can be a handmade jourmal Secretterabite, principeta I have never made a journal about me I got the idea from a frenchbook that I bought here in France and thought about the swap for that, it would be nice for people to use their imagination and creativity. :)

principeta 05/25/2009 #

I mean the picture or link of blank notebook to be sure to use the right size.

violin21 05/25/2009 #

Here is a weblink to see the sizes: http://www.thedailyplanner.com/cavallini-journals-small-notebooks-c-1162531818.html I have just started writing mine and I am almost half way through the notebook, you can include lots of pictures, cuttings and things you have done or made.

violin21 05/25/2009 #

I've even included images of things that I did before I joined swapbots and what I have been swapping since joining swapbots which is all about you. I hope this helps as well and that more people will sign up there are three months to complete the swap in which is plenty of time. It would be great to read about other people and learn about each others backgrounds etc who we swap with!!!!

madtatter7 05/25/2009 #

I will join. This is a great idea. I even think I will add a cd of my favorite songs to a page :) I am thinking also of putting bookmarks and atc's etc...all kinds of fun things. I cant wait to start woo hoo. My imagination is running wild. Hugs to all. Linda

principeta 05/27/2009 #

Violin21 and madtatter7,lovely ideas both.

MissPrissyPirate 05/29/2009 #

OOOOO can i make my own note book with my new bind-it-all?

free2flutterby 05/30/2009 #

Does it have to be handwritten (my hand writing is horrid) or can I type it and then bind and decorate it?

madtatter7 06/10/2009 #

Started working on my pages...this is fun. Hope my partner enjoys :) Hugs, Linda

madtatter7 07/15/2009 #

Hmm my journaling is fizzling out...guess I am not that interesting. I am having more fun with the art aspect of the pages. How is everyone else doing?

madtatter7 09/ 3/2009 #

How many pages is everyone doing? My book had a lot of pages but I have only drawn/journaled on26 pages. Is that enough or do I need more? :) Thank you. Linda
