Description:

Did you know that April was National Letter Writing Month (NLWM)? Let's have some fun! I plan to host several swaps in honor of NLWM.

In this first one, you will write your partner a letter. I'm not going to put a limit on the number of pages you must write, except to say, please write more than a paragraph or two. Feel free to write about you, your pets, your hobbies, your day, etc.

Now to the postage stamp part. You will put your letter into an envelope and use a minimum of 5 smaller valued postage stamps to mail your letter. The “+” part is a little challenge you can do, to see just how many stamps you can put on, that total the cost to mail the envelope. Please try not to put any more than what it costs - challenge yourself to get to the exact amount. If you do happen to go over by a cent or two, that's fine.

The stamps should be different designs, but you may use more than one of the same denomination (i.e. one 6 cents stamp of flowers, one 6 cents stamps of horses, etc.).

You may use current stamps or vintage stamps or any combination thereof.

Are you up for this fun challenge?
