Journal with Prompts Swap! (CLOSED)

Ok, I saw a swap like this on swap-bot, but unfortunately I can't join cuz I haven't been enough swaps yet. Swap hosts and their strict guidelines...picky, picky, picky! So, I decided to try one here!!
Now you can purchase a blank one or make it, your choice, but either way give it some character or you can contact your partner for a specific theme or something they would like. So decorate the cover and the pages with many things like ribbons, lace, buttons, glitter, yarns, quality stickers, drawings etc. Ideas for inside the journal you can add fold outs, pockets, windows, a spinner, game/activity pages, pop ups etc, this elaborate part is optional though, but again just make sure the pages aren't boring.
Your finished journal will need to be 5” x 7” or larger. With a minimum of 30 pages and 30 prompts (that means 15 sheets of paper). You can have more pages and prompts if you want. You can write your own prompts or do a search for journal prompts on the web for some ideas.
Here's a site to check for quote ideas. http://www.scrapjazz.com/topics/Themes/About_Me/874.php
I will post partners pretty quick so we can get started on April 30th and the send out date is May 31st, so hopefully that gives us enough time to finish without being rushed.
So who's up for this one? As a reminder, I would really like only people who feel they can finish this swap successfully and not flake. Thanx so much.

NOTE: Your partner will write the responses to the prompts and keeps the journal.

you know, i REALLY like this idea.... im def in... one thing, though; can we choose what our prompts are to be about? for example, i would LOOOOOOOOOVE a journal with prompts for things like growing as a person, having huge successes, making things happen, etc..... but wouldnt know what to do with a prompt about, say, classic cars or the joys of sports....

just an idea. id love to partner up with anyone and do any sort of journal they would like--im just in a place where i need only motivational and inspirational media, if that makes sense. Happy
