Description:

This swap combines my 2 favorite things about swap-bot, surprise gifts and POSITIVE journaling!! This gift and journaling swap is meant to put a smile on your partners face for 7 DAYS!

This is going to be a really FUN swap, but please make sure to read the details CAREFULLY before joining. 2 weeks to sign up, then 2 weeks to send out.

♥SWAP DETAILS♥

-You will have 1 partner, for whom you need to either buy or make a small journal. I personally recommend making a simple one or buying one at the dollar store. Embellish it a little, add a personal touch to make it pretty :)

-On each page you will affix a store bought or handmade envelope that will contain your journal entry and a SMALL surprise. It does not need to be profile based, though I do encourage it to be since we are after smiles :)

  • And by "small" I'm thinking a 1/2 sheet of stickers, a handmade notecard with envie, a postcard, small colored piece of artwork, small pack of gum, a few crafting embellishments, etc... Think a $1 or less for each surprise.

-Each journal entry MUST be positive and uplifting! The 7 topics are listed below. YOU MAY START EARLY and just add in the small gift once partners are assigned.

-Now, for the WEEK OF SMILES part... there are 7 entries, enough for you to open up ONE envelope each day, no cheating!!! Well, you could open them all up on the same day, but then you'd only have 1 day of fun and smiles instead of 7!

♥THE 7 TOPICS♥

Your journal entry must somehow relate to these topics/themes below. They are very general, so you should be able to find something to write about without too much trouble!

You may have more then 7 entries/pages, add in a few doodle pages, craft how-to's, etc...whatever you'd like as long as you cover at least these 7 topics and keep it positive!

  1. memory
  2. family
  3. loved one
  4. hobby
  5. indulgence/splurge
  6. work
  7. just for me

♥PARTICIPANTS♥

-ALL participants must have a WELL FILLED OUT profile, I'll be checking!

-no unexplained 1's or 3's in the last 4 months, 4.85 or better with ratings for AT LEAST 10 package (type 3) swaps.

-SORRY, NO NEWBIES for this swap.

Love this Idea! I hope you'll host this swap again in the future, right now I just don't have the time

I know, doesn't it sound fun?!? Of course, the real challenge is not peeking into all of the envies, haha. I figure this way, even if I don't get swap-bot mail in my mailbox, I STILL have a swap-bot surprise to open!
