Description:

I love getting decorated envelopes in my mailbox. It's one of my favorite swaps to hostess. If you do also, then sign up for my Decorated an Envie with DRAGONFLIES Swap! You will send your partner a fun envelope decorated with DRAGONFLIES. The envelope can be any size but decorate it anyway you would like with drawings, glitter, stamps, whatever but have DRAGONFLIES on it. You are the artist!

I beg you to spend some time on sending something you would like to pull out of the mailbox and only join if you intend on doing that. Please don't join if you are going to slap something together. Now that I have hostessed this sort of a swap many times, I get so many complaints from people about what their partners send. An envelope with a few junky stickers is not what someone wants to pull out of their mailbox! Only join if you like to create. You don't have to be a great artist, I know I am not but I enjoy creating and putting my best effort forward.

USA only but if you want to make an international one, be my guest! Let's have some fun and spread some cheer decorated envie-style! Sorry but I won't be able to angel any longer so please only sign up if you know that you can do this swap and send your partner something.

Common Questions:

A decorated envie is decorated on the outside of the envelope where you address the letter to your partner. Backside is optional. You do not have to "make" the envelope. I posted one of my envelopes as a sample from the decorate an envie with gnomes swap. If the deadline to sign up is June 24, then I can't assign partners until June 25 and it may be late in the evening but I will assign them! :)

This is fun as I have a tiny dragonfly & large dragonfly rubberstamps to use on the envelopes. The colors of dragonflies are so beautiful metallics & shimmer. I will look at my swapmate's profile to decide what to put inside the envelope.

I hope it's me! :) Sounds like perfection!

So do we send the envie decorated to our partner as a gift? Where they can use the envie or do we stick a note inside saying hi and the swap name and a note about ourselves? Sorry it seems like a stupid question. Thanks....ginny

I really don't understand your question. Sorry. Here are the swap directions as seen above. You should always tell the swap name and your name so people can give you a rating.

I forgot to post that I sent my envie on the 9th. I had already notified my partner that I might be late getting it to her, but actually got it out by deadline date. Confirmation date shows as the 16th because I obviously forgot to mark it as sent. :(
