For this swap, you will make one 4x6" postcard with a black silhouette cutout on it, for one partner. You can make your silhouette a skyline, people, person, animal, anything you like, but it must be done in black. You can choose to put it on a simple one-color background, or on a patterned background if that is your choice. We will send them without envelope, so be sure to adhere everything securely.

Note: (If you would like to make your postcard larger than 4x6", feel free, the 4x6 is just the minimum size to make.)

This is a really cool idea :) I'm putting it on my watchlist so I don't forget about it!

Does it have to be paper? Could it be fabric?

Fabric would be great (oooh, I can barely manage to cut paper intricately, you brave souls who want to cut fabric!)

Do you have to design/create the silhouette yourself? In Germany, this is a popular craft called 'scherenschnitte'. I always thought it was too cool!

You don't have to design the silhouette yourself; you may be lucky enough to find one to use. ; )
