What about designing a postcard?  'Wish you were here' theme maybe reflecting some happy part of your life/village/town and sending that to someone.

[ilove2patch]

That could come under the same seaside heading Alison. I like the idea.

[captainbovine]

I has an idea....................

[**towery**]

why not call it  a  'Summer'  swap

then give  july/august to work  on them

and there are a lot of things that mean Summer to someone

is the august bank holiday going to be the 25th august  or will it be the 1st sept?

[ed_blackadder_1]

25th August on my calender.

[rose2008-2008]

Lol ED,,,,,,,,,, i said DRAW ha ha ha,,,,,,,,,, a BLINGY Sandcastle,,. I like this one although its a bit gruesome. LOL Looks like their all eating each other HA HA HA HA.

[ilove2patch]

I can't draw!!! Yes a summer swap would leave it open to be beachy or just summery. Flowers, birds & butterflys etc. It would be nice if people made their swaps or if they can't make keep the purchase cost to £5 or under. We can make the August Bank Holiday our swap opening day. CB had an idea but has gone very quiet! lol
