Around the World Fiber and Lace swap (CLOSED)

Hi all my love ladies,

I got this idea to swap lace and fiber and ribbon from all around the world.
I'll call it AROUND THE WORLD ribbon, lace, and fiber swap. This is a simple swap with a quick turn around. Something to jump start those creative juices with something you normally cant get.



Send in three sets of Lace or Fiber or Ribbon of 1yard each for each of the members in your team. You can send in just one type or send in a mix. There will be 4 in a team.

Please send in nice quality items as you will be getting nice quality sent back to you. Ribbon needs to be at least 1/4" wide.

Please sent them out by the 13th of September

Place your items in a mailing envelope and include a self addressed sticky return label, a new mailer if yours can't be reused. Place your gorgeous lace in a plastic zipper type bag to prevent possible damage.
(People in Ireland - the same amount of postage it cost you to mail your package to me PLUS 2 extra stamps in case the things I send back weigh a little more. ***extra stamps returned if not needed***)
International swap buddies I will sent you a paypal invoice for the postage, but since lace are so light postage will be cheap.

If you are unable to complete the swap, PLEASE let me know as soon as possible.

Please leave a comment or sent me an email to be part of the swap, I will sent you a confirmation email that you are in.
Thank you all for participating. Have fun picking your favourite! I'm extremely excited!

This was a 7+1 swap, I'll will get one back.

• Each Charm should include a swivel clasp, garment pin or something to attach it to a tag or mini.

• A bead or button.

This was my first time so I hope you Lady's like it.


Feedback are always welcome :)

Graphic 45 Playtime Past.

Hi there everybody here is another fantastic swap with Bona at http://keeponscrappin.blogspot.com/
This was so fun as I did my best to make it as boy-ish as possible.
Here is the details of the swap by Bona:

*Shape~ Square and Size 4" x 4"
* Challenge~ Boy Mini~ Distress (Ink,Powder, etc.)
* Please be sure to incorporate both sides of the design papers on each page.
* At least one embellishment on each page (ribbon, charm, etc.)
* One page will need to include a pocket with a tag for journaling
* Please leave at least an 1/2" space on the left side for binding
* Use medium weight chipboard
* Place your name somewhere on the page so we all know who's work it is.
* Anything goes as long as you use both sides of the design paper.

This is my cover

I left a good bit of space for a photo, I kept the colors very simple.


I love the little metal corners and thought it suited this page quite well.


I wanted to page to be very playful so a put a 'boy flower' a lace flower and a fan.

The back with a pocket and tag.



This was my tag - I wanted to it to be very dirty and messy (just as boys are) with loads of textures, I used Glimmer mist, ranger crackle paint, acrylic paint and distress inks.





I hope all you ladies like your pages and
please feel free to give some feedback or leave a comment.
