OK so this is a small suggestion.

"I propose an amnesty of US Newbie swappers.I'll give them a brief they can suggest 5 items and we'll proceed.
The brief will be that swap must fit into a 9x6 envelope.Have components I can include in a book form or passed on to another swap.I'll make a small book for each person which will act a CO+K diary and personalize each one.Additionally inchies, ATC's and other goodies will also appear.
As these roll we could pair up the Newbies to act as Vets.
It's sad but true that we seem to have a very low Newbie to active member ratio and I think we should seek to do this."

Sierra has already signed up.If other's want to wait then that is fine by me too.

Send me your list of suggestions and we'll take it from there.I'll message anyone on the current list who hasn't respond by 17th March to check if they still want to be on the list.

The type of projects i like are corroborative.This book page has Ezperanza making crotchet flowers and me putting page together.This is 5x5 inch book.Check out the Green book this is ATC sized pages.



This offer will close when all the current US Newbies to Sierra are done as we should have some new Vets.

Yep you can list Sierra and I as partners.She's only in the next stateHappy
Pammerz jump in and grab a newbie any time.It's really cool that you've opened Destash swap up to newbies.This means there are two current swaps open ATC's and Destash with the option of a future round of Inchies ( if I have any energy left)
Hopefully we can get the US list shifted by April.

Updating where my current swaps are if Mary doesn't recieve by next friday I'll resend.
Dragonfly and Ashley are both active but delayed in sending until the end of the month.Both there packages are assembled and awaiting deployment.

DEBS DEBS DEBS it's here!!! I *so* knew it was coming today! I don't know how, but I was sure I was getting something today, I literally waited for the postman on the doorstep! Everything is just - OMG. Now, how do I post a picture? Let's try this... [URL=http://img97.imageshack.us/i/cok063.jpg/][IMG]http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/935/cok063.jpg[/IMG][/URL] I just so love everything you sent me. The birds are already hanging by my bookshelf, the pocket book is awesome (and very useful as I'm making inchies right now! Thanks!) and I will have to hide the wallet for my sister not to snatch it next time she comes over! Oh, and the red and gold pocket book is being used as recordkeeping for all my swaps, especially happygrams which are a bit tricky to keep track of. The ATC is also great, I was considering buying a book to keep them in to get ready for the ATC swap, but now that I have one as an example I'm considering making one myself taking the measurement off this one. Oh God oh God, I'm so excited. Thank you so much for this fantastic swap Debs! Love U! Happy

It's been a really emotional day.I'm so glad it arrive with you safely.I know all the pieces are in good hands.
The ATC is a little small in size so don't use it as a template just used the idea.
I'll dig out some images of how I display mine and put them on the ATC thread.

Dragonfly-It's fine that it will be a while to send out.I rather you were sensible with your finances than got yourself in trouble.A very wise, mature choice- by the way if you find the money tree do let me know ;)

Sierra is going to work on her projects over the w/e and we'll have an update next week

Rawr Rawr we can take Mary;) and I off the list as we are complete ( huge smile and much happiness)
