Description:

Think of back to school, crisp cool days, apples, raking leaves, trick or treating, baking pumpkin pie:) Let's make a chunky book with an autumn theme!

You will have 1 partner and you will make 1 chunky book for them, depicting an autumn theme.

The chunky book must contain a minimum of 4 pages/8 sides (front and back of a page = 2 sides). Each page must be a minimum of 4" x 4", you are welcome to go bigger or add more pages. Please bind your chunky book creatively - yarn, stitched, ribbons, rings; no staples please. Make each page pretty and chunky!

Never done a chunky book? Go over to Flickr.com or etsy.com and search for examples - lots of lovelies there! I use brown paper sandwich bags folded in half as the pages of my books and glue cardstock or scrapbooking paper to each side, then embellish. If you fold 2 paper bags, you get 4 pages with 8 sides - perfect!

Administrivia:

  • US only, feel free to make an int'l one!
  • Rated 4.8 swappers or better and no no-sends in the last 3 months of signup
  • Must have participated in a minimum of 10 real mail swaps
  • Must have logged into SB within 1 week of signup date
  • I reserve the right to ban any swapper I'm not comfortable with
  • I will ban swappers the day after signups close so don't worry if you see someone who is signed up but not qualified
  • My expectation on ratings is a 5 for an on time chunky book that meets the size, page number and theme requirements; a 3 for a late, too small, too few pages or undecorated/non chunky book or a non-book/unbound book; a 1 for no book at all!
  • All work sent must be your original artwork, no re-sending of finished chunky books
  • Any questions, pls pm me and happy swapping!

Are we making these pages chunky on BOTH sides?

OrigamiGrace 08/ 4/2008 #

Yes, front and back of each page, so you only need 4 physical pages to create an 8 page book.
