Mail By Due Date: Wed, April 3
Mailing assignments will be e-mailed once you are done w/ your pinkeep creation and contact the host (me) for mailing info for someone. Also, since this is a true mystery, there won't be true swap partners (since this will be "mixed" up a bit)...you will send a pinkeep and then get one from a different person...not the person you are sending to...clear as mud  
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Artful pinkeepers swap? I was thinking to have a swap for these and have a small group of about 10 people. Everyone make neat, pinkeeper and send them to your assigned partner (if you would like to do more than one then I can do two groups of 10 or something like that)....or depending who all signs up have a group of 10 and if someone wants to swap extras in addition to their partner, that would work too.
I was thinking of a mail-by due date either sometime in late March, early April...how does that sound? I know there are lots of swaps going on, so I am starting this early so you all have more than enough time to work on them.
If interested, sign-up in this thread and I plan to assign partners sometime in February
Hope that you can join in on the fun.

Thanks Debi and everyone
As always ladies, when you do get the mailing info, you can do a quick add on "personalization" thingy, like a button, pin, attached ribbon or some type of embellishment before you send out...if you would like....just make sure tho to keep it hush-hush whatever you do.

I think you are doing a very good job, I would liked to personalize it if possible, but this works for me. You keep it up Amy.

Ok...I think we will go w/ the mystery thing after all....so I will give you a person to swap with once you e-mail me on the completion of your pinkeep...thanks ladies. Remember, as you are working on these to keep track of you creations either in a new post here on the FG board or in your blogs :-)If any of you create any extras we will take it from there.

Forgive me ladies of any "confusion"...as mentioned before, this is my 1st swap that I am hosting and the mystery concept when mentioned was kinda new to me on how to go with it....

Ladies, I just recv'd a good thought from one of our swappers....if I send you your assigned partners now...It would not be a complete "mystery"....so I was wondering....lets all make our pinkeeps now and then when you are ready to mail out...let me know and I will give you a person to mail to...how does that sound? Hope that does not mess up some of your creative ideas too much...
On another swap note, I had to add one more swapper since I am not hearing from Denise...that way we have our even 10 people...if she chooses to be in the swap, I will just make an extra and swap w/ her or if any of ya who wanted to do an extra.

Let's shoot for that first week in April...mail out too your partner on or before Thursday, April 3rd....does that sound good for everyone (date can be adjusted if nessc)? Again, I will assign partners when I get everone's address info...I think I have 2 more gals that I need.
