Description:

This swap is for those of you who like to make their own stickers. however there is a twist! Stickers MUST be Hand drawn and colored with textas, pencils, crayons etc. Strictly NO computer printed stickers or bought stickers. This is all about creating artful heartfelt stickers. You may add written text to the sticker like - " Time for Tea" with a tea bag sticker for example. To make : draw your sticker designs, color in and place sticky clear contact paper over the top. You can then add glue to the back from a glue mixture of 2 parts craft glue to 1 part white vinegar. Paint this on the back and let dry. Cut each sticker out. When the back is wet again by your partner,the glue will re activate like a postage stamp. You will have 1 partner who you will send 20 Handdrawn and colored stickers to. Stickers are to be any size bigger than 1/4". Please see your partners profile to see what sort of stickers they may like. For example, Planner stickers, or animal stickers, or maybe they like the pink hippos? Any questions please ask. Your rating must be 4.98 or higher with no 1s or unexplained 3s. I will be checking profiles. Picture borrowed from peppermint-pop-uk

Hi, can a readymade sticker paper be used in this swap? Like the kind that is sold for inkjet/laser printers (but which I've often used just for hand drawn stuff)? And maybe adding the clear contact paper/plastic on top of that?

Though I've never tried the glue/white vinegar mixture so I'll definitely try that anyway too. :o

Yes of course!

I've hosted this swap many times over the years! Altho, in my opinion, 10 days was a bit tight for my participants with doing senders choice and only 10 stickers... Your swap is profile based and 20 stickers in 10 days... You may find more people sign up if the deadline to send wasn't so tight. Personally, I have no problem with the deadline but from experience, others do. Just a thought. :)
