Description:
How to make an Instant Book: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJNUVEiWhwg This is a swap to make one instant book for one partner. You should wait until partners are assigned, and then check out your partners profile to see what they like. Make an Instant Book for any kind of theme or reasons that you think your PARTNER would like. When you send your instant book, make sure you pop a note in to tell your partner why you choose what you did. This is an international swap, so be prepared to send overseas if that's where your partner lives! CONDITIONS: You must have your profile filled out in detail to be part of this swap. If you don't, I'll delete you from it. I don't angel on swaps, if you flake you will not be allowed on anymore of my swaps. Ever. *Please make sure that you send your swap out on time. If it's going to be late, then contact your partner.

I've never made an instant book before, but this looks like fun :)

Would you consider extending ship date to at least Feb. 17th? Since this is profile based I could use a little extra time.

Gratia 12/20/2010 #

Oops! Sorry, I meant Jan. 17th!

A couple of days extra is no problem Gratia :) Just let your partner know and I'm sure they will understand. If it becomes a problem during the swap let me know and I'll send an email out to extend the date. i know it's a busy time of year!

Thank you. I want to have the time to do a thoughtful book.

Likey, Likey! New thing to do!!!

I just tried this! Can I make one with pockets?

dreamlily 12/26/2010 #

Hi stlouis, you can do any kind of changes/alterations to it that you like. I put pockets in it myself, or sometimes little holders that hold other little things. Be as creative as you like :) I'd love to see a photo of your work by the way.

ok, I've been looking at this since day 1 this swap is up.. and thanks for the encouragement given by @dreamlily and I'm going to just join, cause I know I can't let this swap pass by me..

Really nervous yet excited about it, as I've never done an Instant book before, and didn't know of it till this swap.

Really Hope that my partner will like the one which I'll be doing for her.

I'm nervous, but I'm going to give it a try! I made one with my son before joining and we loved it!

Hi guys! Swap partners have been delegated. Have fun and don't forget to make a post of your instant book for everyone to see. You can either do it here, or join the Flickr group especially made for uploading Instant Books Here is the link: http://www.flickr.com/groups/1546709@N25/

I completed my very first instant book today and will be sending it to my partner tomorrow - it was so much fun, and I almost don't want to send it away because I'm so pleased with it! ;D

lotti02 01/12/2011 #

And ohmygosh @dreamlily - I just realised I'm sending to you! Lol ... please be gentle with me ;)

I am so very, very sorry. I've been in bed with bronchitis for so long. I am just getting back at the computer and will get these out asap. Please forgive me!
