I love postage stamp swaps but I won't sign up for any swaps that only send one (1) ATC per envelope. It's just not worth paying the postage for one card. It would be better to do 2 cards for only 2 or 3 partners. Just my thoughts for future reference. Maybe something to think about if you are low in sign-ups.

Normally I'd agree with Cathy about sending more cards to fewer people, but I think this is such a cute idea! The advantage of only sending 1 card to each is that each envelope will be extra light!

Missysmom 03/30/2007 #

Sorry, but it costs the same to send 2 or 3 as it does only 1.

This is such a cool idea and I like the fact that I'm going to five different styles of ATC's

toni 04/ 1/2007 #

I like sending to 5 people because 5 people will be sending to me and they can't all be flakes.

pootle 04/ 2/2007 #

Good points from Toni and redwing480 - it is now my personal mission to keep the weight of each of my 5 packages below 10g to sneak them through on the cheapest postage! (I'm in England). High on quality, low on weight!

I love the idea of seeing the varied work of 5 different artists!

pootle 04/ 5/2007 #

Unfortunately I've had to drop this swap - such a shame as I love the idea! Have fun everyone!!

I received from artsponge, what a cool card thanks!

Basilika 05/16/2007 #

Oh crud. I left my cards at the "post office" (my town isn't big enough to have a real post office, it's just a counter at a gas station/mini mart) because I was also sending out a big package, and now I remember their pick up is much earlier than the mailboxes where I usually mail stuff, so my cards won't really be on their way until today. And tomorrow is a bank holiday in Sweden, I wanted them to be out of the country by then.

grandmaroro 05/23/2007 #

Well, it is a week past "send by" date and I'm still one card short. She is my partner in another swap and I sent her the item I owed her. Hope she gets it together and sends me the one she owes me.
