Swaps in 2015

What's new in 2015?

Two important things:


First: Every swap now starts on the first day of the month and no longer on the first Monday.

Second: Every swap has a free theme, so no more special themes, as there have been too many complaints about it. And quite honestly, after 5 years it will be hard to find new swap themes. So free spirit, send whatever you want as long as it is paper related!

If you want to sign in for January or any other swap or even the whole year, you are welcome.

Please note: Due to travelling there might be a longer break during 2015 from April til August, but there will be an art project during the summer. Please stay tuned and check this blog regularly. Thx.

Have a great new year everyone!

After a PC crash- please sign in again!!!

Dear friends!

I had a serious PC crash, had to buy a new one and lost data.

It would be of great help if you could sign in again for December 2014 and other swaps in 2015, to make sure no-one gets lost in the data nirvana.

Thanks a bunch!

December swap

Our December swap will start on Monday, 1.12.2014.

It’s the last swap with a theme: „50 words for snow“. (Which is a great Kate Bush album btw)

So you can swap everything about snow, ice, winter and winter colours. Think big, make it playful.

You can also sign in now for the swaps in 2015. Please spread the fun and tell your friends and blogmates about paper swap.

What’s new?

1. We won’t have theme related swaps anymore. So each swap is a free one and you can trade whatever you like, as long as it is papermade.

2. Every swap will start on the first day of the month.

3. Instead of quick swaps there will be a new project during the summer month June, July and August. Stay tuned.

Attention: There may not be a paper swap in May, due to travelling. But it’s not quite sure yet.

The winners of the giveaway from our 5-years-celebration are:

1. Manuela

2. Kelly

3. Erna

4. Beth

5. Danit

Congratulations!

5 years of paper swap!

It was in November 2009 when I started the first paper swap.
The idea was to exchange material for collages and journaling and to get in touch with artists from all over the world.

I am happy that this is still going on and it still is a great joy to do so. Thanks to everyone who has joined the fun!

Please join me on that special day, swap paper (free theme!) and maybe with a bit of luck you will win the giveaway.
On November, 1st I will draw the names of 5 winners for....

1.   The XL envelope with all kinds of collage art stuff from my studio and of course some nice papers!
2. The L envelope
3. The M envelope
4. The S envelope
5. An original collage postcard made by me



You can sign in now, everybody's welcome!

Paper Swap Spring & Summer break

I am flying to London now, so there will be no answer from me on any e-mails during the month of May.



The next swap will be in September.
Watch out for quick swaps during the summer break.

I will answer e-mails again when I am back in June.
Have a great time everyone!
