TO JOIN: email me at creativelyouttacontrol@yahoo.com~ Please do not email me to join until you see that the tag swap is OPEN on my blog and always refer to the swap details (as there could be something new for the month) before signing up. Swaps are posted on the 1st or 2nd of that particular month I am hosting. This swap is on a first come first serve basis. I will email you back with shipping details.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS SWAP IS NO LONGER A "STAMPED IMAGE SWAP". Read below under "what you will put on your tags"
SWAP DETAILS:
1. For your "main tag"~ please do not use anything smaller than the standard #8 shipping tags
(6-1/4 x 3-1/8 approx.) You can also go larger, up to 8-1/2 x 4-1/2. You can
create any shape you'd like as long as you stay in these approximate measurements.
2. The back of your tag must be covered with paper, etc. for a stronger tag. If your tag is already made
from chipboard, the tag doesn't need to be covered on the back.
3. Each tag must be placed in it's own individual plastic for protection. With loose tags being sent,
embellishments have fallen off or lost during shipping.
4. Create 22 tags. 11 of the same and 11 of another.
You can also create all 22 tags the same.
YOU WILL BE CREATING: A TOTAL OF 22 TAGS
5. Please send me all 22 tags. I will send 1 of your own back for a total of 22 tags you will be
receiving.
WHAT WILL YOU PUT ON YOUR TAGS?
Your tags must include at least 4 of the following: Laces, trims, ribbon (must be on the tag not just through the hole at the top of the tag), charms/metal findings, beads, something grungy, any type of technique, flowers/leaves, punch outs, die cuts, sentiments, bling, paint, fussy cut outs from pattered papers or such, decorated tape, buttons, die cuts from any die cutting system, computer images, stickpins, collage, etc.
If you use a stamp, your tags must still be decorated with at least 4 embellishments, or,

I will email you your tracking info. If I do not receive the 70 cents, I will assume you do not want a tracking number on your package.
