I have some bookmarkers that I just bought from a local person. I personally was not the one that made them. Can I join the swap and use one of them since it's handmade.

The swap is for 3 handmade bookmarks, and they have to fit the taste of your partner. If they are made by someone else is ok with me, but it would be nicer if you made them yourself.

Ah, I wanted to join this swap, but the blank bookmarks I ordered haven't even shipped yet, so I think I will have to wait and join next round...grrrr. There will be a next round, right? :D

@grimmlynn You don't have to use storebought blank bookmarks, I have cut mine out of heavy cardstock. They don't have to be an exact size, but more or less the usual bookmark size. So come on and join!

Some of my favorite bookmarks have come from Swap-Bot partners. I'm in!

Mine came in the mail today. Yay! I would cut my own, but when it comes to straight lines I always feel like I cut wonky. Anyway, I'm in and very excited since this will be my first time swapping anything larger than an inchie or an ATC.

I just joined too. Can't wait, since I've made hundreds of bookmarks and only gave away a few yet.

I just made my very first bookmark. It is fun and I think it looks good, so I am hoping my partner will, too.

I made a bookmark yesterday for texdel and I think it turned out really cute. What a fun swap!

grimmlynn- if you want, you don't have to cut the lines straight- you could cut the edges to be zig-zagged or curvy if you want!

I never received anything from my partner............

veltheimia 08/ 4/2009 #

For all those people, that didn't receive their bookmarks: please contact your partner first, if there is no solution: rate your partner with a 1. After that send me a PM and I will send you 3 bookmarks made by me.

I have received nothing from my partner. I emailed her today so I'll wait for a response.

Newfie 08/10/2009 #

Just went to pick up today's mail, and it was there....finally. I was pleased with them and rated my partner already.
