Send me in 10 metres of ribbon and you will get 10 metres back (one of which will be one of yours). Let me know what you're buying so we can keep everyone different!

There will be 4 colour groups so please when you PM me to join give me your first group choice and then 2 other choices just in case your first choice is full.

Once you get asigned to a group then you need to buy ribbon in one of the 2 colours of your group (eg. Pink & Purple - Pink or purple ribbon)

Label them with your UKScrappers name and your group number, and then send them to me. I'll do the rest (although it would be really helpful if you could include a label with your name and address and return postage!).

Completion By:
Send by 6th March for completion by 13th March (or as soon as all received).


**Please leave the first message below this for the host to post!**

DD (7) is so looking forward to it. we bought notepads the other day and were putting ribbons on the spine and font stickers on the front and she was using all my ribbons and said she was really excited to see my swaps!!!!!!

[Lianne]

Hi Baylie,

I received the ribbon this morning- thank you so much for being a fab host and thanks to everyone else for the great ribbons :)

Do you want me to rate you? Let me know if you do :)

[Chris F]

Hi - got my ribbons yesterday - thanks so much they are beautiful

[dars]

Received my ribbons today, thanks for being a wonderful host Baylie and thanks for everyone who contributed towards ribbons for my team. Baylie shall I rate you??

[adele]

Lots of lovely ribbon arrived today.- Used some on some cards i made this afternoon

Many thanks
Adele

[baylie]

dars if you could rate me that would be fab

[NELLIS10]

Oooh what gorgeous ribbon I got yesterday! Thanks Baylie for another fantastic swap!:D

[janetlinda56]

NO ribbons yet, maybe tomorrow?
janet

[baylie]

Should be sending some more out today.....

janetlinda - yours has more than one group so am waiting til all groups are ready and will post out as one

[baylie]

Just submitted the form for a new ribbon swap......is totally different this time!

[NELLIS10]

Sounds intriguing Baylie...any clues???:D

[baylie]

I can tell you....basically you send me 10 metres of ribbon in 1 metre lengths, they can all be different colours patterns etc or just stuff you won't get round to using.....this way if anyone has any ribbons lying around they can get rid of them and get nice other ribbons in exchange......lso even if you have say 3 odd metres you can use thos ethen buy 7 metres of the other.....if you do this i will always send back 1 metre of the one you bought form the shops new,.......

Hope that made sense

[NELLIS10]

Kind of like a ribbon rummage...where you are recycling unused for new ones? I like that!! I ahve coloured ribbon that won't suit my LOs style so I could send them!....

[baylie]

yup that is it!!!!

[sarahmax]

Baylie,
Recieved my ribbons yesterday!

Thanks for hosting the swap.

Sarah:)

[jani d]

[Elsonbabe]
