Newbies ONLY Gift swap #2

There were several comments on the 1st "Newbies ONLY Gift Swap" that suggested another one would be appreciated. So here we go with the "Newbies ONLY gift swap" #2

Newbie isn't a 4 letter word gift swap.

-This is for all the "Newbies" out there who are sincere about participating in swaps yet feel very left out and reduced to only ATC, postcard, and email swaps (not that there is anything wrong with those) We just want a little more variety.

-Let's show everyone what "Newbies" are made of!

-For this swap you will have 2 partners that you will send 4 gifts to (for a total of 8 gifts) Spend at least $10 per person plus shipping (you can spend more to get your hearts!)

-You may also make the gifts you send as long as it isn't something you just slap together with hot glue, gifts should be nice and thoughtful of your partners profile.

-This is an opportunity for you to get your rating & HEARTS! Don't Blow it!

-Go all out. Go above & beyond. Get excited! HEARTS are important, earn yours by WOWing your partner!

-Look at the gifts you are sending and add a little more for hearts.

-CHECK you partners profiles and try to pick or make things they would like. Be Creative! Wrap up the gifts and make a basket, gift bag, etc. Make it really nice and pretty.

-Go shopping like you are gifting for your closest friend. The comments you recieve from your partners will help you get into the swaps that you really want to join later!

-Handmade is awesome if you do it well. Feel free to send "well made" handmade gifts if they seem to match you partners profile (i.e. your partner loves vintage & aprons so you make an AWESOME apron from vintage handkercheifs)

-FILL OUT YOUR PROFILE VERY WELL! Let everyone know about all the things you like and dislike. Colors, products, crafts you like to do, family, etc. Everything and everything about you.

-I will be checking profiles and if yours isn't glorious you may be removed from the swap.

Anyone with 0 completed swaps is welcome! Anyone with 1-10 completed swaps must have 5 rating. And sorry but anyone with more than 10 swaps under their belt will not be allowed into this "newbies only" swap.

If anyone has any questions about profiles, swaps, or is confused in any way please send me a message or post a comment below and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

There will be NO Flakers in this swap! If you can't handle that don't sign up. If you have a problem let me know ahead of time and we'll work it out. Cyber crimes are against the law and can be prosecuted. So if you are thinking you can sign up and not follow through I would advise you to move on. This does not apply to those who have an actual problem that can be resolved. I would rather not have to put this in here but it is to protect those "newbies" who really want to make this work from those that want to take advantage.

Now that the legal stuff is out of the way let's have some fun!

WELCOME "NEWBIES"!

Sorry but this time the swap is regional to USA & Canada for shipping reasons. I'll try to come up with another "newbies" only swap for international as well.
