    This time around we will be taking volunteers, as earlier suggested, for a character swap. Yippee!!

    Is anyone interested?

    I would like the deadline to be ....

    MAY 22

    My April month is really booked, and this would give us enough time to get everyone's ideas distributed before those Disney vacations planned for the summer. Lots of creative potential here, so let's get crackin'!!

    I also have an idea/thought/wish. AFTER this one is over, can we do a Disney Babies swap? Most all of us that are preggers are due this summer or after arent we? Maybe we could have it be due in July or so? I think it would be awesome to have a swap that was both Disney and Baby themed - at least I think it would be hecka easier to put together a baby scrapbook if most of the work was already done. ;) What do ya'll think of that?

    I think I have a good idea for my borders, which is why I went with Rafiki. I do have to give my DH credit. I wanted to someone a little atypical, but prominent in the park and he suggested his 2nd favorite character.

    That is a link to a prior swap that -em participated in, and all the elements are labeled to what they are. And in her album are many other swap pictures.

If so, can we have an update on what's still available? I realise I will have to include additional costs for the return postage.

    A

    Journal boxes 2 per person

    B

    Embellished squares 2 per person

    and I'd be doing Mickey (I know not the most original, but I have some fun things I could use).

    I will check back to see if I get signed off to join :)
