I have been so inspired (or jealous) by all the cool swaps that went on during christmas like this one
http://homespiration.blogspot.com/2007/11/holiday-helper-swap.html
and all the great pics at flicker http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=swap
that I have decided to start a Valentine Swap-hence the big swap image at the top!
Here's the lowdown:
This is a quick turn around one- Sign up by January 21st- just drop me an email. I'll then email you a form to fill out so your swap partner can get to know you a bit, and to find out about your preferences, international mailings, and if you prefer the same kind of crafter as you (scrapper, quilter, knitter etc..) It would be great to email each other and make a new friend!
I will email everyone your partner on the 22nd.
Swap Stuff- this one is for the 5 senses! Choose at least 4 of the five senses and fill a box with things to match.
Sight- Beautiful scrapbook goodies, lovely vintage fabric, beaded earrings-whatever you like.
Taste- Chocolate, fancy tea, hot cocoa mix- be creative!
Touch- Rough wooly felt, silk yarn, all about the texture here.
Smell- lotions, candles, perfume, soaps.
Hear- mix cd, book on cd- use your imagination.
Just be sure to show your Crafty Cupid that you care! Fill a box you would love to receive. When you receive your package- take pics and we'll add them to a Crafty Cupid Flickr Group.
How does that sound? Did I miss anything? Help me spread the word of this fun swap- click on the swap logo and post about it on your blog- the more participants the more fun we will have! International Crafters are welcome too!

so is it all scrapbooking related or just random items to fit into the sense groups? Sounds fun. Count me in but just send me some more info (you know I have no original though :)

Oh this sounds like fun I sent you an email.
did you get any emails from people I work with? I sent out a mass email to my workmates telling them to check out the swap.
Please sign me up! I could use some cute valentine stuff and I waited too late to sign-up for the others. Thanks!!!
