Description:

I don't know about you guys but I have a BOX filled with loose memo sheets and I really am running short of ideas on how to use them. Something of a spin-off of memo sheet letters, let's put together a DIARY/journal made of memo sheets! Let's use fun pens, those sticker flakes, and whatever else you'd like to express yourself on paper :D Write about your days (no matter how mundane!!) and the things you do day to day, fun things that happen, vent out your sadness/anger, etc.!

I will be screening everyone and reserve the right to ban anyone for reasons deemed fit. I'm aiming for NO FLAKING!


TO PARTICIPATE, please make sure that you have: 4.7+, very very few no-sends and a filled profile.


Small & Cute! (Japanese >> Puchi: Small, Kawaii: Cute)

GUIDELINES

  • Please make sure you include kawaii content! *Please be sure that it is cute in the JAPANESE sense, meaning: please try to stray from Diddl, Disney (unless Japanese version) & etc. UNLESS indicated by your partner's likes.
  • International: please be understanding that some PO's are not as great as others and things ARE lost in the mail.
  • Do not send anything you would not like to receive.

The Minimum

  • Bind ONE (1) diary/journal for ONE (1) partner using 4 inch x 6 inch sized memo sheets. Please make sure there is a FRONT COVER & a BACK COVER. Bind it however you wish! String, staples, etc. please do it with love and care! We don't want it falling apart in transit or while your partner is reading through it.
  • Please include a MINIMUM of TWENTY (20) entries. Entries must fill at least ONE side of a 4inch x 6 inch memo sheet. Entries can be prompts, poetry, drawings, pockets-filled with surprises, whatever! Embellish the pages and make them fun to look at or read.

Theme: Memosheet Diary I know the majority of kawaii collectors probably have a stack of loose memosheets somewhere in their stash. Let's put those papers to use as a mini-diary! Fill up the kawaii sheets with your daily adventures, mishaps, drawings, etc. Feel free to add more than 20 entries. Don't be afraid to get creative&crafty with your entries! This is a swap that can be started prior to the assignment of partners. CLICK HERE FOR INTERNATIONAL VERSION.

Shipping notes: A completed diary SHOULD fit in a greeting card-sized envelope & should only require a few stamps to send. If your COVER is NOT sturdy, please make sure to either slip in a cardboard insert or make a notice of "DO NOT BEND" somewhere on the exterior of the envelope. I usually just cut a piece out of a cereal box to use as inserts.


ALSO, if you feel that you may have some issues or problems coming up around the time of the swap deadline, PLEASE LET ME KNOW PRIOR TO SIGNING UP.

If for reasons you do not have full access of Swap-Bot (like missing links and such), please make your update notices BELOW IN DISCUSSION!! Thanks.

If there are any questions or concerns, please feel free to PM me or leave a message below.

the coordinator just sent me an email, she said she is on a camping trip and doesn't have access to a computer so she will assign partners when she gets back

Question? If I decorate front & back of a page does that = 2 entries?

iamjenii 07/20/2010 #

@Kawaiislandgurl If the entry spans 4 sides, it is still one entry. The minimum for an "entry" is to fill at least one side of the sheet. Let's say I wrote a long entry and it took up 10 sheets; it counts as ONE ENTRY, not twenty. If I drew 5 different pictures and wrote 5 short but one-page-long entries, that would count as 10 entries.

Front & back covers do NOT count as part of the entries.

Hope that helped! If anyone has anymore questions, please do NOT hesitate to ask :D

I'm using chipboard for my pages. I'm planning to decorate each side of the chipboard sheet with the memos + embellishments so I'm thinking each side would be considered as one entry. These are the pages inside of the book. This is not counting the front & back covers as entries. I understand what you are explaining but I thought I explain myself further about what I am doing. I hope this explains it much better. Thank you!

iamjenii 07/22/2010 #

Ooh that sounds really neat :D As long as each entry is meant to be one side, it's fine :D
