This is not an EJ endorsement for AMA. AMA allows newbie, unrated swappers in their group. The swap descriptions often lack clear guidance on expectations for swaps. I left that group after repeated unsatisfying swaps. I only allow proven swappers in EJ and remove problem swappers which is a standard not followed at AMA. I put this paragraph here recommending that my group members be careful about joining AMA group swaps and understand that that group is run differently than this group.

Thanks so much for the clarification for everyone's benefit Angie.

Hi Wonderful EJ swappers - Just wanted to send a reminder that the swap signup deadline is Tuesday, May 17, so please come join us - if only two people are signed up (presently the case on Saturday, May 14), I will possibly cancel the swap - and I don't want to do that! :(

TO hopefully entice you further - don't forget that there are some true ephemera beautiful stickers and labels out there!

  • Remember things like old Dennison gold stars or anything Dennison or other colorful label manufacturers for mailing labels, etc.? You may not want to lick these old things (Yuck! :D), but there are some old beauties out there from Vintage Paper Faire shows, estate and rummage sales, etc., that you may not have even forgotten you have in your beautiful ephemera stashes!!

  • And old sticker luggage tags from airlines! I had some beauties years ago, but ended up using them all as address labels!

I'll post this on the Group Forum page too. I hope you'll join in! See you in the mail! ~GinaVisione
