Description:

This is a follow-on to my last Fairy doll swap. It's an international trade for a miniature art doll swap & matchbox. For this swap we'll be using a Valentine's Day theme -- hearts and flowers, please. I don't care if you interpret this as broken heart theme, but please try to infuse your doll with some hope and love!

Item 1 - A small hand made doll under six inches tall dressed in fairy garb.

Item 2 - A decorated match box containing items you think might be found in a Valentine fairy bower.

Your match box might include stickers, buttons and beads, fancy threads, or tiny flowers. And, obviously, lots of hearts! Use a 32 count match box -- very small. How much can you fit inside?

SIGN UP BY December 15.

FINAL SEND BY DATE is January 15.

This is an international swap. You must be willing to send to a partner outside your home country.

Swap-bot members must have ratings of 4.7 or higher to participate. I will review ratings before assigning partners. Any rated participants with recent no-sends need to communicate with me to help me make my decisions on whether they can participate.

IF YOU ARE NEW TO SWAP-BOT 1-You must complete your Swap-bot profile 2-You must note in the comments below what your prior swap experience has been (if any) 3-You must provide a link to photos of your art/craft. This could be Craftster, Flickr, Photobucket, etc. Anywhere we can see what you do.

I will remove anyone who seems shaky, has a rating below 4.7, shows recent/multiple not sents, or has not completed the "newbie" requirements by the close date.

Do your best work. Make this package something you'd be happy to receive. Don't sign up if you don't intend to come through at the end. And if something comes up, I expect you to communicate with me and your partner.

Should the fairy be wearing something heart themed too?

Is the doll to be made of cloth, cardstock. or something else?

Coffeelatte 11/ 7/2007 #

In prior swaps we've had cloth, clay & clothespin dolls. I suppose you could do sturdy cardstock. Your choice -- make it something special.

Hi! I'm new to swap-bot, but not new in crafts. In my profile you can find both links, to my blog and to my flicker account. I really would like to participate on this swap. Any doubts, just ask me, ok? Thank you :)

Check out my tutorial on how to make a 250 ct. matchbox. http://www.flickr.com/photos/7835013@N08/2108875546/in/photostream/ Please leave comments if this is helpful or message me letting me know you liked my tutorial. I will work on upgrading a few of the pics to better quality, but I hope everyone can enjoy this. Save your tea boxes!

My home computer is broken, so I will have limited personal internet access this week. Probably won't be able to get this fixed until after the Christmas holiday...so if you message me and I don't respond for a few days, I'm not ignoring anyone!
