The second group of Birthday card Swappers has openings for anyone who wishes to join in with a Birthday swap. The swap works like this:
We swap one birthday card with each member of the group by sending a hand made card to that person in time to arrive for their birthday during the year. In the case of the 2nd group our "year of birthdays" runs from 1st May till the 30th of April each year. The committment is therefore to remain a member for the full year after which time your obligation has ended.
The number of birthday cards you will need to make throughout the year will depend on the total number in the group. Last year we had 13 people but due to other commitments 3 are not rejoinng the group so we are starting this year with 10 members already signed up. 15 is the maximum as I think any more than that can make the group become too big and members with less free time may find that the obligation to make a card for each of the other members becomes a difficult one to keep up with.
If you would like to join please let me know. If you are a new card maker please feel welcome - our group is about helping to make each other's birthday a little more special and all card makers are welcome no matter what level of experience or what style of card you enjoy making.
