Description:

I like my postcards naked, stamped, and hand canceled at the post office!! For this swap you will have 2 partners.

~You will send them one bought or handmade postcard (sender's choice).

~Include a nice note on each one.

~Address the cards, stamp them, and send them naked (no envelope).

~The only real catch is that they have to be HAND CANCELED AT THE POST OFFICE...so this will take a little effort.

Now I know some of you cannot get to a post office....so this swap is not for you...so sorry this time!! Please, no special requests....just follow the specs above....easy!!!

Newbies are welcome with a well-filled out profile. Others should have no recent 1s....I have the right to ban at my discretion. Please do not join if you don't think you can fulfill the requirements!! Now....gather those postcards and have fun!! ;^)

Great swap! I know all of the clerks at the post office and when I pass them a post card with stamps, they know to hand cancel it without even asking. LOL

You will need to take the postcard into the post office and have them hand stamp/cancel the stamp on the card. The reason I like this is because you can usually easily read the date and place the pc was mailed from. When you drop a letter/pc in a box, it is machine canceled and much harder to read..if at all. If you have any more questions...please don't hesitate to ask!!
