EDITED TO ADD SENDING INSTRUCTIONS

Let's get this show on the road! Now that we're fleshing out with members, it's time to start swapping! I'm making this first one a quick turn around since we're all fresh and ready to go!

Senders choice postcard swap. You don't need to wait for partners to be assigned to create your masterpiece. Grab a 4x6 piece of book stock and go to town arting it up! Once it's completed, secure it to a nice sturdy backing to make sure it gets through the mail. You'll send one postcard to one partner. Send it NAKED! Don't walk to the mailbox naked silly! I don't want you picked up for lewd public display! I meant the postcard! Send it without an envelope! I'll host another swap later where we'll send postcards in envelopes for our partners to use. :)

It would be nice if you would check your partners profile before sending your masterpiece, just to be sure you're not going to surprise them with their utmost phobia and cause panic attacks. It's just a nice, polite thing to do before sending someone something.

If you haven't had a chance please stop by the forums and introduce yourself, weigh in on what kind of swaps you'd like to see happen in the group, share any of your favorite supplies for altered books, and perhaps even start your own topics!

since I am new to this....just to clarify...I use a book page as my base and go crazy from there?

@aallyy Yep! That's it! Take your book page, make it artful and creative, then glue it to a backing to be sure it makes it through the mail. :) Easy peasy!

So this postcard is to be sent naked?

ViridianMuse 05/15/2013 #

@sternenfee Yes. We'll do postcard swaps later where we send them in envelopes for our partners to use.
