Response: Oh great! The glitter is actually the paper I used =) I didn't do that part unfortunately. I do hope your girls enjoy the postcards =)

I probably have gotten your swap. My grandpa had a stroke and life is hectic. I have a huge pile of swaps that I have not opened and will be getting around to this weekend.

Thanks for asking though!
