You can work with your swap partner through communication so you can stay within the range of what is reasonable. To mail a 5.0 oz. (approx. 25 sheets of paper plus mailing envelope) envelope to Australia – Airmail Letter post 4-7 days cost will be $4.65 us – to mail that same envelope to England it would be $4.20 us

For more postage info for the USA sending elsewhere    http://ircalc.usps.gov/
For postage info outside of the USA please check with your mail system as rates vary from county to county.

We will be matching up US and Canandian people to people of other countries.
Working in groups of Five – after we have matched up the first Five (5) we will work on the second five and hopefully get everyone matched up that wants to swap.

Slight change - we have two Canadian’s that really want to swap with someone in Asia or Europe so I'm putting US and Canada in the same column

We now need 5 someone's other than US or Canada 

If you still want to get in the next 5 (us and canada) go ahead and send in your info and I will post in the order in which they rec. after we fill these first five.

Thanks everyone!

[lexis]

thanks goat goddess- that seems to make sense- also the fact that these 2 canadian chica's both happen to be on the same coast. tee heehee. hi minouette! long time no talk. 

[minouette]

hi lexis! I'm still here. I'm trying to keep my craftster addiction to swaps that are reasonably straightforward to participate in (at least until I have some sort of reasonable travel schedule for my job- they leave me in limbo)!

We definitely have access to the same sources of paper and guess we both hope for something more exotic and international. 
***fingers crossed***

[goatgoddess]

Well the signups are open till the 10th
if it ends up a small swap - we will just have to be extra creative <G>

[poppysmum]

I'm going to sign up now...WhhhhhEEEEEEE EEEEE!

[goatgoddess]

Welcome to the swap poppysmum!

[poppysmum]

Thanks goatgoddess!

Has anyone else already started filling an envelope? 

I'm finding that all the really awesome paper is 12x12...so I'm thinking about cutting them down and keeping the scraps for myself...  BONUS! 


I put this in my signature!

[goatgoddess]

Well we aren't too international yet so this will end up being just a paper swap I think - we have two from Cananda, one from Japan and the rest are USA - so let me know if you want to stay in the swap - we have one or two other USA people who want to sign up but were pending so will open this up a bit and see what happens.
