NOTE: SWAP INSTRUCTIONS HAVE BEEN SLIGHTLY MODIFIED TO ALLOW FOR MORE ARTISTIC EXPRESSION

This swap is for three 4" x 6" doodle journal pages for one partner. Don't know what that means? Well, I'll tell you -- at least for the purposes of this swap! Buckle up, because we're getting serious, sarcastic, whimsical, brutally honest, and everything in between! I will be hosting multiple rounds~


You will need 4" x 6" index cards, blank postcards, or pieces of paper cut to those dimensions. I suggest index cards, as I'll be hosting multiple rounds if people join and they are cheap.

You may also want something like a photo album to store the pages you receive, which can be purchased quite cheaply on Amazon. This option is $8.99, this is $14, and this set of 2 is just $9. (US links)

AS FOR THE PAGES YOU CREATE

Every page should be a journal entry. The intent is to express a random thought, a feeling you're experiencing, a general sentiment you'd like to make known, or an occurrence from your day (1 - 3 sentences) alongside a simple doodle (draw, collage, paint, digital imagery created by you (no AI), anything is fine -- no talent is fine, just make sure everything is lined in ink or something that doesn't smear easily). 10 minutes or less to create, but we understand if you go over. Please color in your doodles when appropriate and date the page. Leave the back of each blank.

Here are some examples of pages I sketched out while fleshing out the idea:

Don't worry about being witty. Any tone is welcome, though be mindul of the format's limitations and the journal's intent -- short, quick glances at thoughts or moments.

Remember, you will be making 3 separate 4" x 6" entries for one partner. You will have a week, but they can all be from the same day if you feel inspired or irresponsible.

Rate a 5 if you get 3 pages that meet the rules, even if you don't like what they sent. Just don't add them to your journal.

Flakers and bad swappers will be dropped. I check 1's and 3's every time. Newbies welcome with well-filled profile. Will angel if your partner flakes after failed communication with them.

Message me directly with any questions! Have fun and happy doodling~
