Description:

For this swap you will need to make one 32 count matchbox and one 250 count matchbox hence the name "double time". This is sender's choice with a theme of blue and pink. You can do a mix of both colors or just one color a piece but there must be both colors in your package. The boxes can either be filled or decorated inside regular or like a shrine.

One partner swap for 1 32 count box and 1 250 count box.

You cannot rate low just because you received something you did not like. If you receive your swap on time and it was within the theme and details then it was fulfilled and done right, so it deserves a good rating.

You must have at least 4.9 rating with no recent or unexplained 1's or 3's.

Here is a link to a template for a 250 size matchbox

Here are some ideas for shrines

Here is a link to the 32 count box template for both the regular and envie style boxes Make sure you do not print to fit page. Open the pdf as a saved file and remove the check in the fit to page box so it fits your paper.

ADDED NOTE: You can use paper that has other colors in it but the main color (like background/base) color of the paper must be blue or pink. Some papers have decorations on them that can fill in for decorations that would be added to the outside of the box.

NOTE ABOUT SHIPPING: I know people collect stamps and reuse them for swaps but I highly advised using a barcode type label to ship. Delivery Confirmation is free if you use Paypal (just click on multi shipping option to add in an address and print a label) or even the usps site, you get discounts on your postage as well doing it online and you can even schedule a pick up from the post office if you like. I just think that having delivery confirmation on your packages helps to cut down a bit on missing, lost or "I didn't receive" my item excuses. I always PM the DC number to my partners and let them know it's been shipped.
