Description:

I feel that every now and then everyone could use an encouraging word, sound advice, or something that inspires them to push through whatever challenges life throws at us. I thought it might be fun to create a journal with a minimum of 30 pages of things that inspire you. This can be quotes, pictures, advice, songs, speeches, poems, stories of triumph, ect. Pull these things together in a fun, creative way to present in a journal for one swap partner. The journal can be any shape or size…made or bought. I encourage each swapper to do more than just to write these items into a journal…going above and beyond is highly encouraged. The thought behind this is that no matter what your swap partner is going through, they can read your journal at any time and be uplifted and inspired by it. This is an international swap and I will require all swappers to have a 4.8 rating or higher. Please no flakers! Let me know if you have any questions! 

absolutely wonderul idea...I love it

Love this idea! Quick question.....are the 30 pages the front & back of the paper, which would be 15 papers/pages? Or is it 30 papers/pages which would equal 60 front & back? Thanks for the clarification.

Love4Life 12/16/2010 #

Oooh! Great questions. If you want to do front and back pages you could do 15 pages. It just needs to be a total of 30 different inspirational things.

Gien the high flake-age rate of journal swaps, I'd recommend a higher rating requirement. People who are under a 5 rating with a good reason could pm you for you to make a decision to allow them in but 4.5 is too low to risk your hard work.

That's for the feedback net3811. I will keep that in mind when when making the final judgment call. This is a very important swap for me and I hope all who sign up taking it just as seriously.

For everyone's peace of mind, I've increased the required rating to 4.8.

Hi, I would really like to join this swap, but I haven't done any swaps yet. I understand that nobody is willing to put a lot of hard work into this and not recieving anything back, so I understand if you say no. However, this swap really calls out to me and I would love to share my "wisdom" and inspiration to somebody out there. I've had quite some lemons thrown my way, but found some pretty nice stuff to turn it into lemonade and would love to share the positive stuff :) And it would be a really fun thing to make! :D

Anyway, please let me join! puppyeyes ;)

I have worked really hard on previous journals, sent mine out on time (if not early) and have been flaked several times now... Would love to join but am nervous... Will you be angeling?

Love4Life 01/ 2/2011 #

Hi Raafje! Thank you so much for your interest in my swap! That really means so much, unfortunately, do to the nature of the swap and everyone concerns about people flaking....I am sticking to the strict 4.8 rating required to be in the swap for the best interest of everyone.

JavaJunkie, I'm so sorry you've had such terrible experiences with your journals in the past. I would absolutely LOVE to be an angel if someone was to get flaked on...however, I unfortunately, do not have the time to do so. I'm so sorry!

I'm so looking forward to finding out who my swap partner is! I will be hand making my journal. It will be durable & whoever you are :o) you will be able to keep it on your bookshelf or on your nightstand for those moments when you need some inspiration! I hope that everyone will have fun with this swap. Thank you Love4Life for thinking of this idea.
