I recently joined swapbot because I enjoy swapping very much but I was kind of stuck with Blythe-clothes swaps. I still love them but there are few and they always seem to have the same people in it which is kind of nice as you can rely on them but I just wanted to do others too.
Soooooooo some of the swaps I've received already:
* Fast turnaround swap (4 different notecards) 2 partners:
- I still need to receive one (probably lost in the mail but she' s going to send a new one)
- from ollie
I forgot to take a picture before I ate some of it but she had taken one herself before sending it to me (on her flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/evilkayleigh/3196322539/ )
* Small goodies in a handmade envelope swap: (2 partners)
Description swap:
let's send some handmade envelopes full of small goodies to 2 partners:
* a list of 5 things you collect (or if you don't collect anything, 5 things you wish you could collect)
* a picture of the cover art from your favorite album, and a small description of what makes it so great
* a photo you've taken
* something to read (this could be a short story, a magazine article, zine, something you've written, etc)
* 2 bags of tea (pick two different flavors)
- from creeny (superfast!)
She had not only put in the 5 goodies from the list but also a package of precut blank ATCs, a sachet of scrapbook/atc-treasures, fabric and ribbons, a sachet with a personalised stone and crystal, a bar of soap, some pretty waxmelts, an envelope with pretty dried leafs and a embellished notebook.
but I can show you mine (at least the outside, forgot to take a picture of what I've put in it)
You will make 1 bookmark for each of your 3 partners!! You may include more if you like although it's not required. please do them nicely, something you would want to receive in return, not just stickers thrown onto a card. These are handmade only. Your choice! Please make them flat where it won't rip a page. Bookthongs are welcome too. Any way/medium you choose, make it something you'd like to receive. (ex fabric, collage, bookthong, magnet, etc)
- my 2 others are still in the mail
- from deenakate : suuuuuuuuperfast! They were due today and I already recieved hers! WOW! It's a nice bookmark:
I'm really enjoying this so far! ^_^
Pearheads:
Last saturdaynight I couldn't fall asleep before I scribbled this vision down... Nothing out of the ordinary as I always tend to be the most creative at that moment... But normally these visions ( 'cause I really see the finished project) are about a photoshoot that I want to do... Now it was a painting... I really could see every detail and how I had drawn it...
I really find it so darn frustrating as I'm a pure amateur as it comes to painting and it looked so good and professional :-D
Anyway I made a sketch of it, to keep it alive but out of my head so I was able to sleep:
Little dolls:
My new girl is a little wooden doll and has her own house with wardrobe. Her name is Annemarie.
I so love the feeling about her, I can't quite put my finger on why (that's happening a lot these days...)
A plus is that her clothes also fit Blythe ^__^
Swaps:
I recieved this swap from the EU-Blythe-swap with a summertheme: 2 outfits from MissStella.
Tilia looks like a modern princess and I'm finding it so hard to change her clothes now :-D
Amber loves her plushie that is a happy monster or an angry bunny!
I recieved wonderful goodies from Esmeraldes for the August-swap (theme: rement, retro & pictures)
I loooove the wonderful rement (I really need to make some better picts of it) and the beautiful giftbag.
