Description:
Hi there!!! I thought it'd be nice to do a paper scrap scavenger hunt. This my first time hosting and maybe this one has been done before but it'll still be fun! Send scraps to one partner that can be used for scrapbooking, ATCs, journaling, etc. Scraps must be at least ATC size (2.5 x 3.25 inches) but may be larger, by all means. BUT NOTHING SMALLER THAN THAT Scraps must be a square or rectangle. A cool shape like hexagon or oval would be fine too but must not be too small. Please send quality paper that you would like to receive- nothing bent or torn (unless your partner likes that sort of thing!). You may use journaling cards but PLEASE DO NOT send all journaling cards, especially if your partner doesn't care for them. Pick at least 15 categories and send one at least one scrap from each of the categories you choose. Here are the categories for the hunt: animal fall winter Christmas flower food travel words, letters, or numbers stripes or lines circles or polka-dots stars, moons, or something related to the night sky hearts or love related you're partner's favorite color (doesn't have to be a solid, can be a pattern) vintage or retro theme glittery one of your favorites to share something you think is homely, ugly, unattractive-- maybe your partner will love it, maybe not... who cares (: a solid color sender's choice a theme your partner will like based on their profile (: a book page scrap something cultural texture summer a nice design/print- paisley, scrolled, geometric etc. It would help if you make a list of which scrap goes with which category and include it in your package. Also, remember to include your username and the name of the swap. Must have at least 4.9 rating New swappers allowed Have fun!

What are journaling cards? :)

AZmom875 11/25/2014 #

Journaling cards are preprinted decorative scrapbooking cards that you can write on in your scrapbook or smash book or junk journal. They are often bigger than an atc card but not always. If you google the words journaling cards you can see images

You are correct (: Thank you for the answer. They seem to be popular right now... project life, sn@p, and other well known scrapbooking designers make these types of cards.... I like them but they're not everyone's cup of tea.

Thanks for the info. I Googled it and see what you mean. The ones with text I don't like, but I can see how others could be used in ATCs etc.
