Craft Club Swap #26: Colourful Penpal Project!

Heeello friends of the Craft Club, it's time for another swap! What you make is completely up to you, and so is the theme: I decided to even add a longer deadline, so this swap is as fun & stress-free as possible! :D The only "rules" are that you're following the One Colour Challenge, as explained in the Patreon posts around this :)

Here's the swap guidelines in short:

• We will be making a penpal project, any type you like as long as it involves crafting and decorating. Think flipbook, tag flip, envelope flipbook, pocket letter, pocket folio, accordeon folder, matchbook mail, envelope stack... You name it.

• We're doing the one colour challenge, so pick your favourite colour and use it throughout the project! You're also allowed to pick a different colour for each "page", as long as it's clear which colour you're featuring. Don't worry about using secondary colours: all is well, as long as your one colour is obvious.

• We will decorate the project in our own style, but keep an eye on your partners profile to see what colours they might like. Make sure it's something you'd love to receive as well. No sticker slapping, put in some love!

• We will add goodies, for example: washi samples, stickers, die-cuts, tags, project life cards, doilies, playing cards, fussy cut illustrations, handmade embellishments, book pages, tea, pictures, stamps, brads, labels, embellishments, buttons... Anything you might like adding and receiving. Bonus if the goodies are matched to your partner's profile. And include a short letter introducing yourself and the swap, maybe something about your day 😊

• Decorate the envelope if you like (not all of our post offices accept heavily decorated envelopes as flat mail, keep that in mind) and drop it off before the swap-deadline. It's an extra long deadline, so there should be plenty of time to get it sent out in time :)

For this swap, I'm thinking we'll use the same weight-guideline as last time for those of us who work with stamps: around 50 grams in total, envelope and all. That should make this swap not too expensive to send, with stamps getting more and more expensive....

Mind you: to avoid difficulties, I'll only accept current Patrons who have a fully filled out profile. So that includes a little "personal" section station crafts you like, and styles you'd like to receive. This will make it easier for your partner to get to know you a bit!

As mentioned in the details of this post (at the top), this is an international swap. Meaning you may be sending mail all over the world! 🌷😁 Let me know if there are any questions, and most importantly: have fun!
