New Swap #1: Valentine Ornament Swap!

This swap was completed in February, 2008
The deadline for this swap is due in my hands by February 2nd, 2008 and note that late entries will be returned. This is a 3 for 3 valentine ornament swap. Participants may create 2 sets if they wish, trading 6 ornaments for 6. No need to tell me in advance how many you are creating.

Your ornaments must be small and lightweight enough to hang easily. They should come complete with a way to hang, and be ready to hang! Some ideas: Stuffed puffy fabric ornaments, paper hearts, felt ornaments, or fabric & lace or embroidered ornaments . . . what about ornaments utilizing transparencies, stained glass ornaments, metal or tin ornaments, ATCs made from fabric or paper with a ribbon added to hang, or . . . ? ? The choice is yours!

Think love, romance and valentines. You may use images or not, as you like. * You are required to email lenna to see if there is space available in the swap. * I will limit the amount of participants to 30-35. Once your participation is confirmed, I will send you the full details of the swap including more links to ideas for these ornaments. Then create your ornaments and send them along with your label/envelope/shipping funds – all ornaments will be mailed to you in early February!
