Would anyone be interested in doing a Valentine SWAP after the first of the year? I know that seems so far away, but hey girls we are all crafters here, and we know that Christmas is practically knocking on the door! Actually, I'd love to be more involved in the SWAPS myself, but just can't participate in any more until then. This would give everyone else some time to think about it as well.
After discussing this with Junebug, who has run the SWAP quite successfully the last 3 years, here are some basic guidelines to consider when signing up. This is a Valentine card SWAP. The valentines MUST be homemade from whatever you have on hand - scrapbook stuff, stitched (knit, crochet, embroider), quilted postcard type, whatever - as long as they are homemade. The size you choose will only be limited to a) your imagination and most importantly, b) postal regulations (which you need to check very carefully!). You will make 1 card for everyone who signs up on the list, so be ready (as of early this morning - 12/11 - we already had 20, and a few more have signed up since. Any future questions should be directed to Junebug.
Here is the list so far: Tapestry Jennifer Juniper Beverley Cheryl blessed homemaker City_Chick farmmom22 emsmommy LivingWell4You wild daisy deere dawn stitchinchickin Muslinbunnies berry hill K-Falls Farmgirl britchickny yarnmamma Laura Marie dkelewae crafter janiee Marybeth (lovely photos - see page 3)
Come join the fun!

I am interested! I too will need a reminder re-post closer to the date, though I did subscribe to this topic to help nudge my memory.

Although no one can go back and make a brand new start; anyone can start from now and make a brand new end.

Have plenty of ideas, lol. Would a sort of ornament work too? I have the cutest crochet patterns!
But we do need reminders indeed. First Halloween, Christmas, New Year etc et c, lol

I'll post again probably the week after Christmas. I'll be sure to include rules, etc. then. I'll be sure to label the post as REPOST so no one gets confused. |

Ann, I know your new here, just wanted to let you know that I've hosted a homemade valentine card swap for the last 3 years here, going on our 4th. Hopefully, we can share the fun!

Howdy, Ann it wasn't me that did the swap before it was junebug. But if I can help in any way just let me know. I think a homemade valentine card swap and a actual valentine swap both would be wonderful . The more the merrier and especially with valentines... Beverley
