How about a winter & holiday stamped image swap?
Here's what I was thinking:

1.This swap is open for a maximum of 20 swappers
2.Each person stamps one image per participant
3.Each image must be on white or cream color cardstock
4.Black, brown or sepia tone ink (preferably waterproof ink. Please don't color in the image, leave it naked, clear or black embossing is optional)
5.Images should be neatly cut into a square or rectangle to fit the image & have at least a 1 inch margin left blank so it can be trimmed or embellished.
6.Each person should let the host know what image they will be using (i.e birds, clock, animal, etc) so we can create some variety
7.Include the image details on back (name of set and manufacturer)
8.Stamped images need to be no smaller than 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 inches and no larger than 4 x 5 inches.
9. PLEASE specify if dye or pigment ink was used. It affects how we can color the images. If you don't know, then just write the brand and name.

Please choose quality images to send. Pick images that you would use on your project!

PM me if you are interested and I will send you my address.
Last day to sign up will be October 10
All images will be due by October 30
I will have them sorted and mailed out by November 5
Please include a SASE (self-addressed stamped envelope) with the same amount of postage for the return trip. Envelope should be large enough to hold a 5x7.

Any questions or suggestions? Let me know.

I"ll take 1 spot. I'll let you know what it is when I can find my stamps again. Having the house painted inside and every room is in shambles. Hopefully it will be done by the weekend. It's already been 3 weeks and I'm starting to have cardmaking and sewing withdrawal.

LOL at Fuzzy.

Bluu, I'm still working on finding my stamp too. I'm not a big xmas stamper. I don't make my xmas cards. I mail too many and I hate the idea of them being tossed in the trash. So I have to look for something that will work.
