In this swap you will have to shop from your stash only.

You would take your partner's name and send them stuff based on their name.

Example:

K - K& C company Products
A - PeAch ribbon
T - Teal Borders
H - AdHesive runner
Y - TackY glue

The item can start with the letter or have the letter in it. This is going to create some creativity in gathering NICE items to send to your swap partner. I would say that you could use the profiles to help you with your partner if they have posted a profile.

Tell me your though on this type of swap.

I haven't been in a swap in a while, I'm in swapper withdrawal.

I'm in too. Will you pair us up by the # of letters in our name or just at random? You know my 1st name is quite long..LOLwhistle

What if we just set a number like 5 (since Cathy is 5 letters) that way if someone has a longer name we still send 5 things?

I know I can use the long or short version of my name. I would like to keep it to whatever name you want to use and try to keep number of letters as equal as possible.

Mine is 9 letters long..but the short version is 5. So maybe 5 should be the fair letter quotient. :-)

I'm a newbie, though not new to scrapbooking and crafts. May I join? This sounds like fun! I'm a teacher and am lamenting the start to the school year because it means the serious curtailing of my scrapping unless I am proactive!
