Favorite Book Exchange Sign Ups!
« on: July 26, 2015, 09:17:42 AM »
Hello Flourish Friends!

Sign ups are now closed.

Share a funny quote, inspirational passage, classic saying from your favorite book. I'm so excited for this exchange as I love books and I know many of you do as well. Also, this is a great chance to get creative with your tools, styles, colors, medium, etc. Broad pen, pointed pen, any color, any style of calligraphy ... go for it!  ;D

Sign Up Deadline: 8/10/15
Post Mark Deadline: 8/28/15

Please only sign up if you can complete the exchange. Those who do not send their exchange will not be able to participate in the next exchange. If you haven't completed prior exchanges, please wait this one out.

Please note the exchange name in pencil on the back of the envelope. If you post pictures on social media, please be sure to cover or otherwise hinder any personal information (address). Thanks!

Requirements:

1. Although the cards do not have to be handmade, some kind of calligraphy should be used on either card or envelope.
2. You will send a card to every member on your list (typically 7-9 members).
3. Must be related to the theme.
4. All skill levels welcome!
5. If you end up not being able to participate, please contact me ASAP. If you don't send your cards after the list has gone out, you will not be able to participate in the next exchange.
6. You must sign up before the deadline. No late sign ups.
7. HAVE FUN!

Elisabeth - Erica will send you a list via email, and then you snail mail out to the people on your list.  No PM required unless you just want to!  Glad you've signed up - exchanges are SO very fun. ;D

I've stood by the sidelines for the past few exchanges, but I'm back in the game for this one! 
All my best -- Elizabeth O.

Definitely! I was also a bit hesitant about joining the exchanges when I was starting out but my advice would just be to go for it! Any practice that you can get is a step in improving your practice. And the letters you get are absolutely beautiful and inspiring. :)
