Description:

First off I love books and I love bookmarks but I don't always want to spend $6.00 on a boring bookmark so I thought I'd make my own instead.I also love vintage pictures so I thought I'd put the 2 together and make an oversized vintage bookmark swap.This swap is set in the future a little ways so you have time to get your creative juices flowing.I want these to be quality sturdy bookmarks that people can actually use so put as much love into them as you would want to recieve yourself. Also by oversized I mean long and wide.I'll elaborate in the comments section down below if any one has any questions about size. You will have one partner that you will send 1 bookmark to.It has to be creative and oversized but not thick as you want them to be able to close their book on it.The bookmark has to go by the theme "Vintage" but for colours check your partners profile for their likes.

Think embroidery thread,paint,thin beads,tassles,wool,vintage pics,stamps,gel marker and those are just a few ways to get really creative on this project.

Newbies are welcome but must have at least 8 mail swaps completed and no less than a 5.00 rating.Sorry I'm just looking for quality on this one.Please no flakers or people not serious about making a quality bookmark as I will nto be able to angel this swap.

This swap is international -Please make sure all swaps are sent out on time.Everyone loves that...Enjoy!

Also thought I'd put this down here but the size of my bookmark is 7 inches by 3 inches but if you want to make it just a little smaller you can but not too small because it's supposed to be a little oversized remember.Have fun.

Thanks for letting me know about this swap dear. :-) Can I use a Manila tag for that? Or could you give me the size, so that I know, if I have the right ones.

Okay everyone so the size I have for the oversized bookmark is 7 in by 3 inches.I'm not quite sure what a manilla tag is but if it looks oversized you can use it as long is it still fits within a books perimeter.Anyway other than that use your excellent imaginations and make some cool vintage bookmarks....
