OK My last swap idea did not work I am so new at this I hope that people will like this one lol...

So I am needing a new Journal but mine always seem so boring.. So for this swap you will buy your partner a Journal and deck the crap out of it hehe.. The front.. The back.. and the first few pages.. Get your partner into wanting to write again.. Make it as cute / cool / dark as you think your partner would like... Then take at least the first 3 pages and no more then five and you can write a short story, a poem, past in a few pictures and use the other 1 or 2 pages telling your partner about the picture, tell them all about yourself, Or just deco the pages out to make it look very cool.. WHAT ever its up to you.. Then send it to your partner... You can get cool Journals at the dollar store.. And make it over or make it all by hand!! If you can lol.. That again is up to you and your partner.

This swap will be international so please if you think postage will be to much don't join.. ( it should not be tooo much!!! )

No one with a rating under a 4.5 can join and sorry no newbies on this one unless they can mail me and show me they have feedback from some other rating site showing they do send what they offer to send..

Please when you do the pages in this journal make them NICE..Make it so everyone else will want to see it.. This should be LOTS of fun and you should have an interesting / strange / cool / what ever journal lol and I can't wait to get started!!

( Please post you want something done girly, gothic, cute cute or what ever lol )

Can we use 3 subject notebooks with regular college ruled paper? They give me more room to get crative with.;c) If not, I don't know if I will meet the swap requirements because I just bought the notebook...:c/ LMK!

sungazer 03/25/2007 #

Hey, this is going to be a fun swap! As far as my journals goes, I'm a little girly, a little dark, but mostly spunky funky artsy fartsy. I sure hope that's helpful :D

jeanland 03/25/2007 #

I'm so happy I've been allowed to join! This will be so fun! :) Yay!

As for my tastes... I'd love something rather along these lines - dark, goth, gods/goddesses, nudes, stark, black & white, moody, disturbing... I think that sort of paints up the right 'mood'.

For the person I'll be sending to... Please, please give me a very clear idea of what you are hoping your journal to express to you when you see it. I want to make it as perfect for you as possible! Even tell me what size you'd like it to be, etc...

This is going to be so much fun! Peace, Jean

summerivy 03/25/2007 #

LOL Sure thing SheriFaerie if you feel you can work best with that and make it cool I am sure no one would mind!! And Jean Smith I am happy u wanted to join!!

I love this idea, the last journal swap I joined turned into a round robin half way, so I am excited to see this unique swap. It should be fun! I love to write and my incentives to get writing are pictures, doodles, drawings, or creative uses of color. I love to travel, and anything travel oriented is good, as well as anything Asian, Indian, or eastern european. I also like stars, butterflys, dragonflies, and the moon and stars. hope it helps! :)

DreamHope 03/30/2007 #

I am really not fussy about what I get. I can make my own journals if I want/need something specific, so what I'd love to see is whatever my partner loves to make. I may just find inspiration in your design that I never would have found in my own!

That said, I have a fairly intense obsession with paisley right now, so if my partner has anything paisley around, that would be gladly accepted. If you don't, that's OK too!

jeanland 04/10/2007 #

Ummm... What happened to the dates on here? I've noticed it throughout the site... What happened??? Anyone know?

summerivy 04/10/2007 #

What do you mean Jean Smith? Also I got your journa and I loved it.. Very well done.

I'm so happy you like your journal! :) I was so worried that you'd hate it!

The dates are messed up on this swap (and others)... It says -

Last day to signup/drop: November 30, 1999 Date items must be sent by: April 23, 2007

Anyone know what happened?

SDDoula 04/12/2007 #

I was just looking at my swaps and was thinking the same thing. I had to double take. I mean come on it's no likely she was giving us 7 years to prepare the journal. Maybe when Swapbot made all these recent nifty changes it affected some of the dates?

And btw, the whole star rating option, that has the word "coming soon". Do you think that means, the star's meaning will be exposed soon? Or that you can post a "coming soon" star once you have shipped? Or maybe before you rate someone?

As I write this I think I need to stop drinking coffee this morning, and step away from the computer. slowly....

jeanland 04/12/2007 #

LoL Chelsea! I was wondering about the stars too... it'll be interesting to see what they'll be used for.

sungazer 04/15/2007 #

The stars are going to be for swap coordinators. You give a star to someone who coordinated a really good swap. They are "coming soon" because that feature is not up and running yet.

A journal is on its way from Vancouver, BC, to New York, NY. It's a long way to go, but I sent it air mail, so hopefully it'll be there soon!

junemoon 04/17/2007 #

Sent diary to Sungazer about a week ago. I hope she's got it and likes it. I've got nothing yet but time isn't up.

sungazer 04/18/2007 #

June, the journal and postcard are beautiful. Your projects sound amazing. I wish I could see them in person.

junemoon 04/20/2007 #

Dream Hope in Vancouver -- I love the hand and paperwork!! Your message made me want to move to Vancouver or at least visit doing the week of the art walks. Thanks so much.

DreamHope 04/21/2007 #

Hi CalenderGirl! I'm so glad it got there safely and that you like it! I uploaded a picture to the gallery if anyone else wants to see.

SDDoula 04/22/2007 #

I just have to say that I received my journal today from Cookiebear, and I was completely floored. I mean I seriously had my eyes bugging out of my head. SHE IS SO AMAZING. She read everything I like and she went way way way over the top making it the most amazing gift I have had on swap bot to date. I will post pics next week.

jeanland 04/27/2007 #

Thank you so much sungazer for the wonderful journal!!! :)

summerivy 05/ 1/2007 #

I hope everyone got theirs and loved them!!!

cookiebear 05/ 8/2007 #

Can't access the rating page for some reason tonight, but I have received a great journal--- embellished covers, yummy-sounding recipes... and a poem "fresh from the pen". Thanks bunches for the work put in, Diana. Will try again later to post a rating.

I think I'd be interested in it. I'm not sure why, but I feel like it would be a good way to relax and de-stress. I've never really journaled before, so I don't know how it works. Try this air duct cleaning company suwanee to contact cleaning companies. But if it's similar to other forms of art like writing, painting, or drawing, then I think it might help me relax. I guess the only thing that concerns me is the fact that I'm not sure if there are any rules for this kind of thing. If there are, then maybe I'll try it out and see what happens.
