OK, Folks - I'M BACK! :)

Join the fun!!!!

Is there anyone who loves stamped images but doesn't own many stamps? or you own too many and want more images in your portfolio?

YOU CAN START RIGHT AWAY! Stamp at least 10 different images onto separate heavyweight quality cardstock (for example manila folder is quality but do not use cereal boxes to stamp) can only be WHITE cardstock and proportionate in size to your stamp

Minimum size cardstock: 2.5" x 3.5" (64 mm × 89 mm)

Ink color: ONLY Black ink but must be quality ink so that it doesn't bleed or smear while in transit to your swap partner

Please make sure you use separate cardstock for each stamp. For example, do not stamp 10 items on a 5x7 sheet of paper.

Please write the name of the swap, your swap-bot username on the envelope, swap-card or sheet of paper so that it makes it easy to RATE your partner.

STORE BOUGHT (not digital or clipart ) rubberstamp only!

Rating: please be kind, if you received at least 10 different images, are crisp and sharp, and all requirements have been met, rate 5 even if you don't like the image...you can always pass it on to another swapper, right?

This swap is only for Newbies & awesome non-flakers! I will check your ratings, and will remove at my discretion. If you have flaked in any of my previous swaps, please don't bother signing up...it's an automatic removal.

Please have PROFILE completed.

You are NOT sending the actual rubberstamps in the mail; only the stamped images in a flat envelope.

I will NOT be able to angel but I will do my best to review and remove flakers.

Please read thru all the requirements carefully.

would index cards be a good card stock?

ruthsinkwell 12/ 6/2014 #

index cards will be ok

Angie1974 12/ 6/2014 #

Maybe this is just my preference, but I prefer to receive stamped images stamped in black only, on white cardstock only.

I agree with Angie

ruthsinkwell 12/ 6/2014 #

I will change it....to black only on white cardstock...thank you Ladies!

SuZignomeMoM 12/ 7/2014 #

And because it is only black and white I am leaving swap. You cannot please everyone all of the time. Perhaps when you have this again I can send out the ones I stamped on pastel leftover already. Or I will just save them as goodies to add to some other swap. I wish you great success with this swap.

ruthsinkwell 12/ 7/2014 #

I am so sorry SuzignomeMoM! I will add another swap....you are right! I can't please everyone all the time....thank you for your feedback and well wishes

SuZignomeMoM 12/ 7/2014 #

Thanks for making a swap that allows colored card stock.

coleenfranks 12/ 8/2014 #

Colored cardstock ~ nice idea too.

kaikai 12/31/2014 #

Such an ADORABLE swap! It's Simple, yet creative. Perfect for those who use odds n ends to scrapbook. Can't wait :)

Katiebrandx303 01/ 1/2015 #

Do the stamps we use have to be over a certain size? Only because most of the stamps I use are mini ones.

singing171 01/ 3/2015 #

Hi! New here... :) May I ask what a swap-card is? Thanks in advance for your reply. ;)

thebragal 01/ 6/2015 #

It might be a good idea to include what ink you used in a note to your partner. Which ink you use will determine which mediums the recipient can use to colour the images in. For instance, if you used permanent ink like archival or stazon, then your partner can water colour. If you use Memento, they can use Copics. Etc...

Watching for now.

I love the rubber stamp idea but would love to receive the images on rice paper so I can add them to ATC's or Postcards.

vontakk 01/ 6/2015 #

Can't wait for partners to be assigned. I've got mine all ready with some handmade stuff. :)

If you like to use colored inks or cardstock Ruthsinkwell has also provided "I LOVE RUBBERSTAMPS #6". Come join us as well.

RacheltheMouse 01/ 7/2015 #

A lot of my stamps are quite small, around one inch, are these okay? If I send quite a lot of different ones as well as the larger ones I have, would that be alright?

karints 01/ 8/2015 #

Do we have to send it with track number? or regular mail is also okay?

ruthsinkwell 01/ 8/2015 #

send by regular mail is okay.

ruthsinkwell 01/ 8/2015 #

small stamps are ok just put on stamp on each cardstock and add more stamped images.

ruthsinkwell 01/ 8/2015 #

OK ~ Partners have been assigned! YAY!!! you now have till January 14 or sooner to get your swaps in the mail. Have a wonderful day everyone!!!
