Description:

This swap is designed to help those who aren't quite sure what to send for a Smash Book/Junk Journal swap to get started. Even though I am targeting new smashers, all are welcome.

For this swap we will send our partner at least five (5) items (each individual piece counts as one item) that can be used in a smash book or junk journal. If you choose to send stickers, you must send at least 10, and they will only count as one item, no matter how many you send.

Please read your partners profile to see if you can send items with a theme they will like.

Here is a list of items that you can send for this project:

  • Small envelopes
  • Small note pad pages
  • Colorful, mostly flat decorative items
  • Postcards
  • New or vintage blank forms of any kind
  • Images (stickers, pictures cut from magazines, etc.)
  • Recipe Cards
  • Any attractive items that can be written on or used to decorate
  • Postage stamps

If you are uncertain how a Smash Book or Junk Journal looks, really anything goes. Below are links to several pages that show Smash Book pages:

Swap requirements: You'll need to have a rating of 4.90 or better and a well filled-out profile so that your partners will have an idea of what you'd like. Newbies are welcome with a completed profile. No recent or unexplained 1s or 3s. No flakers. I will consider those with a lower rating with personal communication before sign-up. Please PM me if you have questions.

This is the perfect swap for me!!! I am just getting on the smash book bandwagon and have been doing tons of research. Super excited!!! I am purchasing a book today.....there are so many to choose from....I am on the fence between one with rings or one without...what do you guys prefer? Any/all ideas are welcome! :) Thanks!

I just entered the world of SMASH and this is perfect. I just purchased my first SMASH book on 1/1/13 and I am thrilled to start it. I was searching on Instagram who would be interested on swapping stuff with me, I have a lot of baby boy stickers that I do not need since my boy is almost 5 yrs old. Need to fill out my profile so that I can get a swap mate ;) thank you

How do I send a private message?

To send a private message, go to the profile of the person you want to send to. There will be a message button at the top of the page. You can click on it to get a message form to fill in.

This was my first swap and I must say..is not what I was expecting. All the items I received did not match anything I mentioned on my profile...what a let down
