I'd love to join if it was send a decorated envelope for a decorated envelope, a postcard for a postcard. I'd like to get back something like what I've sent. I'll watch for another swap that's just one or the other.

@charlottenc Good point:)

I agree Charlotte.

I agree with the others who have commented. I think the range is too wide. Also, what to put inside a decorated envelope if that is the actual swap item you are sending? Especially when it says that items requiring an envelope must be sent in a decorated one...

So if we make an ATC (or zine or something else) for this swap we have to also decorate the envelope we send it in?

Tessssssa 09/ 2/2015 #

Hi, I'm sorry I didn't see these questions earlier.
If the mail art item for this swap is not the envelope, the envelope you send it in does not have to be decorated over the top. Some stickers, washitape or a doodle will do.
If the envelope is your mail art item, what you put inside of it is your choice. A note card, postcard, or just a note telling what swap it id and your name. This doesn't have to be a profile based thing or something, because thats not what this swap is about.
I hope this makes things clear.
I wil move the sign up date up a week, so everyone has time to join ifvthey like.
