Any interest in an ABC swap? update post #107-8,p8

I like both ideas. I would probably only do one group, but it sounds great! :thumbsup2
 
I like complete pages. But I could do one of each kind and then I'd have enough for two books.
 
on #2 could I just sign up for 4 letters so I could get 4 books, 1 for each kid? Or 2 in one group and 2 in the other group?


In the only ABC swap I've ever done, we picked 2 letters and made 13 of each. If there is enough interest, I suppose I could make it pick one letter and make 26.

This is what I need to work out...how to handle if you want more than one spot. I have 3 kids and I'd love to have a book for each. Your suggstion didn't occur to me! I was thinking I'd need 3 whole groups (A-Z) in order for me to get 3 books! I suppose we could do that pick more than one set of letters per group. What are the cons of this?

If you hate Zurg you are stuck with 3 of him? If you are in different group you don't have as many multiples of the same exact thing.

Good point. Especially, if I just don't have a photo of something. (Although I should have this back before our Sept trip)
 
4 letters in each group, no prob.

This would be awesome for a character swap in the future. ready made autograph books!
 
:thumbsup2 I'm loving the completed page swaps, and I like the idea of the ABC book being "ready made".
 
I love this idea! If you don't want to host, I'll do it!

I would love to host but I can't until the fall. I have soooo much stuff to do. If you want it. run with it! Hopefully I can join!

ETA of course Shauna's was more or less a character swap to begin with. But we could make specific space for autographs.

I'd be looking at the fall too. I guess. Hmmm...we should check the calendar.
 
If you did just a one page spread for the 8x8 (which I love the size... be great for an autograph book...hint hint) would it seem a little croweded on the page for all the requirements and the photo then would get overlooked? What do you think?

I love the autograph swap idea...

I think it will be okay -- one photomat, one title/topper (I would do letters most likely) and one other element/embellishment

These photos are from autograph albums I made for my kids in 2006. Note: the Mickey & Minnie pages have 4x6 photos, all other photos are 3.5x5. However, most of these pages have the large tag, which is not a requirement. I remember I liked using the photomat sized for 3.5x5 photos. The downside was I had a hard time finding a place to print photos that size.

One other thing to note. I made these before my trip. So everything on the pages was made so that a photo could slide under it.

So check these out and see what you think about the requirements -- especially if you think we should change the photomat size.

Love the pages Susan. On the size I am not sure what route to go. I have not printed 3.4x5 in a long time, yet a lot of my photos I could crop to that photo size. Either size I could work with.
 
I am more intrested in the elements as I scrap mostly 12x12, but the completed 8x8 sounds fun too. I don't have kids so would just need one spot. Of coarse I will be in Aruba that day so need to find someone to help me out soon. I kept my Surprise swap groups low so I could do this and the cruise one too.
 
I would be interested in an elements ABC swap, I too scrap in 12x12 - so completed 8x8 would be no use to me.

Is it possible to have both swaps going on? For those that want completed pages, and for those that just want the elements. With each daytrip I take, I am working on getting the photos needed for an ABC book for each park, so would love to get involved in a swap that would help me scrap those photos. I already have the selected ABCs I am working with - so I would be scrapping those, and hoping for ones back that could fit in with my selected words.

Yes, I would offer both choices. That is, group(s) for elements and group(s) for completed pages.


Completed pages --- would you rather 12x12 completed pages? I was thinking that 8x8 would be easier considering there are 26 to complete, but we can do 12x12 if the majority wants to. I guess the requirements might need to chnage if it is 12x12

Lucky you...Aruba! Please let me know if you need help finding a surrogate.
 
I like the idea of trying to do a completed swap but I would rather have it generic instead of as an autograph book. The 6 X6 pages are god for autographs.

I really like the ABC pages that have been posted in another thread the past couple of days.
