Welcome Ladies to our Fourth! Surprise Swap! Can you believe we are on the 4th round!
There will be 6 swappers per group. The Surprise is you don't know what youre getting or who is in your group. When I sort I will random draw your elements. I have listed a selection of embellishments, just like any other swap. You just don't tell your theme or element. I am also adding additional groups that will be specific to certain things such as Halloween & Christmas. You can make your pieces or buy Jolee packs etc. Or both.
Important Dates to remember:
Mail Date: June 20th
Due Date: June 27th
**Remember please DO NOT make more than 6 duplicate items per group. You can make 3 of one item and 3 of another if you want to use your stash to fill a group. **
Each group will consist of 6 elements. If you sign up for 1 group you will make 6 elements to receive 6 back. You will not get one of your own back; you will receive back 6 random drawn baggies
The Details
1. Choose a group, or multiple groups.
2. Choose ONE element for each group you select see the list below. Dont Post your choices of elements. It will be fine if some of the elements duplicate within a group. Just think about what you want to receive back as you make your element selections.
