Requirements:
Pick 2 letters and make
13 sets of
1 topper
1 photomat
1 journal box
1 element
Topics: Characters, Rides, Shows, Attractions & Lands common to both WDW & DL. Some letters will be tricky and you’ll have a little more leeway with them.
REQUIREMENTS DEFINED
Photomat: double matted, must fit a 4x6 photo without cropping, smallest layer usually 4 ¼ x 6 ¼. The mat must be embellished -- inked, brads, eyelets, ribbon or fiber, matted stickers, paper-piecing are some examples. Please note: the photo must be able to slip under any embellishment.
Journal Box: total of 3 layers, the journaling space minimum size is 3x2. It must be embellished (see above)
Topper: In lieu of A is for… as part of the title, we will be highlighting the letter in some way. Glitter, different or larger font, some embellishment, pop-dots, different mat.
The topper is not to exceed 8x2, must have at least 2 layers and be embellished.
Elements (pick one):
Paper piecing
2 Tags -- minimum size 2x3, 2 layers, must have ribbon, fiber, eyelet etc in the hole, and be embellished in some other way
License plate
2 embellished Slide mounts
Library pocket & tag -- tag should have 2 layers and have ribbon, fiber, eyelet etc in the hole. The pocket should be embellished.
Signage/bookmark : max dimension 8 inches
File folder: 1 med or large, 2 or 3 tiny ones, embellished
3 Altered paperclips
Quote/lyrics: 2 layers, minimum quote/lyric area 3x2, maximum dimension 8 inches, embellished
Shakerbox
3 Shapes: 2 layers, embellished
3 squares: double matted, max size 2x2, embellished
You can mix & match -- 1 tag and 2 shapes or squares or altered paper clips, 2 squares & 1 shape
Excluded: embellishment baggie and store bought items(i.e. Jolees .) You can of course use them on your pieces, but providing a package of stickers instead of a handcrafted item is excluded for this swap. I think we are looking for speed in completing our albums, so I’d like to stick with finished elements. I have also left off photomats and journal boxes since it is already a requirement.
Packing:
For each letter
Place one of each requirement in a ziploc bag (1 topper, 1 photomat, 1 box, 1 element). Place all 13 bags into a 2 gallon ziploc bag.
Label each bag, including the 2 gallon bag, with your name, DISname and group number and letter. Please do not individually address the bags.
