I saw the most amazing book made out of paper bags on ebay going for $40! Since I don't have $40 to blow on a paper bag, I want to swap with YOU!

Here is a link for a tutorial:

http://scrapbookie.com/paperbagscrapbook.htm

I am in LOVE with the idea! For this swap you will make 1 book that started out as just a few paper bags. Minimum 8 pages.

THEME: Twilight, New Moon, Both, Edward, Jacob...something to do with Twilight

Sew your book, bind your book, glue your book...whatever you want goes as long as it looks REALLY nice when you are done. Put some elbow grease and love into these.

Here are suggestions that show what a finished book could look like (I am NOT suggestion you copy their work):

Don't sign up unless YOU KNOW you will have the time, supplies, and creativity to make your partner happy. A fair warning, I "out" flakers. I post them on my blog, all over Swap-Bot, and even on the new swaps they sign up for. I consider flaking stealing as you got something and didn't "pay" for it.

NO 1's within the past 6 months (unless you have a really good story), no 3's within the last 3 months. You must have a rating of 4.8 or above. I will check every profile and if I get "bad vibes" I may ask you to drop out. Must have 5+ type 3 swaps with feedback, this allows newbies to join as long as they have done 5 package swaps.

Questions, PM me as I am bad about checking the messages on here.

Also, I bought brown paper lunch sacks if anyone is wondering about size...
