Sign Ups Starting for AUGUST TAG SWAP!!

It's time for sign ups for August. The theme for August is PRETTY WOMAN.  You can use anybody you want. You can use Marilyn Monroe, Your Grandmother, Your Grand-daughter, whoever. They must be female.  You can use Eleanor Roosevelt, Betty Boop, Oprah Winfrey, Charlie's Angels...you get the idea.  No QUOTE is necessary unless you want.
                     PLEASE EMAIL ME at PinkScrapper99@yaho.com to join.
                     Do not leave a comment to sign up, I will need your email addy.

The OPTIONAL CHALLENGE is to use acrylic paint on your tag somehow, somewhere.....I am putting a twist in the August swap, so let me know how you like it. It will make you stretch your creativity. Same rules will apply as always. Please remember to do the back of your tags and to send return postage stamps too.  

Swap Tags must be mailed not later than August 15, 2010.  I will send the tags back to you on August 20 or sooner. Rules are below. This is a long post, so read all the way thru to the swapper's signed up below....


RULES ARE SIMPLE- US AND INTERNATIONAL PARTICIPANTS OK

1.   Once you sign up, you are committed. Please make every attempt to finish on time and mail tags on time. If you do not follow through, you won't be able to participate again.  I will excuse for unusual circumstances though.  Why so strict?  I have heard horror stories of people never getting their swap items. So, I do not wish to disappoint anyone.

2.   For the One on One swap, you mail 2 decorated tags. You can make an extra for yourself but do not send it to me. I will add embellishments and mail 1 back to you. You must include return envelope and return postage stamps.

3.   You mail 5 tags to me and I will coordinate tags and ship the exchanged 4 tags back to you.  Please include a second envelope and enough return postage stamps in your envelopes so I can mail it BACK to you. Also, write your addy on the return envelope please.

4.    Mail to me by August 15(I will mail out on the 20th of each month or sooner).

5.    Please try to follow theme of swaps, but don't run out and spend money to do them-get creative! You need not use the newest papers or embellies- just have fun!

That's it. If you have questions, just ask me, I am happy to help you.
