I joined a swap last year for a paperbag album kit. Everyone sent in a specific item so you could complete an album. I made the library pockets decorated with fishes. My mom visited my sister and her family last year so I took those photos to incorporate into this album. It turned out perfect.

I joined swap to make Hostess Gifts. When you join a swap its always nice to send the hostess a little something for all their hard work putting the swap together and mailing everything out. I chose to give diecuts – 6 different ones. Instead of just putting them in an ordinary ziplock bag I used these CD cases I have. They made great stands for your desk so the hostess will be able to reuse them once the dies are all gone. For the packaging I used a digital kit from Scrapper’s Guide.
