Description:

This is for those awful days that you just need a laugh or smile.

  1. Decorate a matchbox so that if your partner has a bad day, it will make them smile.

  2. Fill your box with a tiny deck of cards. (try using card stock so they last longer)

  3. Each card must contain a quote, advice, a saying or even a funny joke. On the other side, decorate it with a drawing, nice picture, an image related to what you wrote... whatever you want. Just make it look happy. :D

Be creative with this! :D No money is involved, so all the effort must come from making it look cute and pretty.

To help with matchbox creation, feel free to use my 6 box template here.

And look at that - I signed up 20 minutes ago and am almost done with my matchbox ! ^^;

Damn, you're fast! LOL

When you're finished, you can sign up for the other group swap. ;) ;) ;)

Aww psht I made a promise to myself to never ever join journal swaps because I know I'd cry and throw a fit and end up with a 1 rating for being on denial about parting ways with it ^^;

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how many cards should we have in the box?

Reilo 05/ 6/2010 #

However many can fit! :) It'll probably depend on how people make their matchbox. Some might use thicker paper or decorate their cards more than others. So don't anyone worry about a specific number. :)

This is the coolest idea... I can't wait to start my box!

Mesha 05/ 6/2010 #

I made 10 cards, but my cardstock is pretty thick I think :x
They turned out so cute ! Finished them last night, I'll just sit and make a pretty box tomorrow evening - perfect way to chill after my tests !

I ready to go ! Omg I was so excited about this swap I can't believe I finished so quick, and way before I thought I would :'D

I'm sad that I'm going to have to drop this- wedding stuff is getting crazy and now I have new deadlines to meet by June. I hope I can get in on a future round <3
