December Daily and my advise to Newbie Swappers
Hi my stamping Friends
Today’s post focus’ on Swaps, as crafter’s we often join Mini book swaps, card swaps and other swaps, after a run of what I call bad luck with swaps, I’m stepping forward to share some things with the newbie swapper so he she can have successful swaps.
If you are new to swaps in general, communication with the swap hostess is critical. He/she will be happy to help you with questions and even provide feedback on your project if you would like a second opinion.
I highly suggest before you sign up for any swap, regardless of the type, that you PLEASE go out to You tube and watch some video’s. You tube is very user friendly and key words like “mini book”, go a long way. These not only give you ideas and encouragement, they will teach you some old and new techniques to use in your project.
Do your best work, something you would be proud to receive in the mail. Think about what your swap partner would like to have, especially essential when it is a one on one swap.
If you are on a site that has threads, subscribe or follow the thread of swaps you are participating. This will keep you in the loop of any changes or of information you need to know.
I love new swappers, they keep us old timers on our toes, especially when you are enthusiastic and willing to learn.
Enjoy the video! Stamp Happy and be a blessing!
