Description:

Yes, that's me!! I'll admit it, I'm addicted! Help me feed my addiction please!

This is simple and straightforward:

5 partners, 5 postcards (1 to each that is!)

These are postcards of places, any place you choose (ex. buildings, scenery, tourist attractions, etc).

On the back, you write a message, something friendly, something informative, just something pleasant to read.

You include the name of the swap, you include your swap-bot name.

Then you mail it.

Important Info

These postcards WILL NOT be in envelopes. They will bear stamps, they will be weathered as the postal system sees fit!!

International, 4.5 or higher (if lower ~ contact me to explain), newbies welcome

This is important to me ~ remember to rate your partners when it's all said and done! If you feel that you have been forgotten after giving it a decent ammount of time, drop your partner a note before a bad rating. If you receive a postcard, give a five. Good swappers deserve to be recognized.

Have fun!!

sugarbooger 03/28/2007 #

are these homemade? i don't want to join if they are.

RobinT 03/29/2007 #

I'd like to make my post card. I promise it won't be junky looking. It will have beautiful pictures of Washington, DC. I plan on using my husband's photography, which is excellent.

I hope that's ok. If not, I can drop from the swap without a problem.

Katie 03/29/2007 #

OKAY ~ this is what I have to say about the homemade: if it utilizes an actual photograph, that IS acceptable. However, anything papercrafted, altered, etc, IS NOT acceptable. I'm sorry if either of these stipulations affects anyone!!

Craftlover10101 03/29/2007 #

I'm fine with all that :-) I'm ready and waiting :-) lol

RobinT 03/29/2007 #

Me too...I promise to have really nice pictures of DC on my postcards. It's Cherry Blossom Time here and we're getting lots of pretty photos.

Katie 03/29/2007 #

Sent to:

Sara Shandara berryjuice Tuna Man beckra

On some of them I hope my interpretation of "places" was ok. Will send on another postcard if folks want a strict interpretation.

(I sent travel photographs some of which were close-ups of sidewalks, or nature in Rome, Paris, California, Florence, and Dublin.)

This is my second swap and I'm hungry for more!!

Tiredmom, i received your wonderful covered bridges postcard today! What fun! We have many covered bridges here in Oregon too - and they look amazingly the same as yours in Michigan! i've only seen a few of the ones in Oregon so far - I plan to take a trip around the state just to check them all out this summer. Do all the northern (rainy-snowy) states have covered bridges? It would be interesting to know. thanks for the postcard - it's making me curious to know more....

cooan 04/ 5/2007 #

Hi girlzoot! Your postie arrived today-thank you! I flew into Denver once...and once was enough!! LOL! The turbulance was awful, we really bounced around and I don't enjoy flying anyway. I did enjoy you pc, though! :D

Craftlover10101 04/ 6/2007 #

Crystal and ddmaree I got your wonderful cards today. Loved them both.

? What does everyone do with their cards? I can only think of a photo album? Making a photo copy of the back and putting it next to the card? What do you think, do etc.

moodytuner 04/ 7/2007 #

Nina C, Samathatiam, Aliisza, HeatherS and Crystal, your postcards are in the mail and on the way as of this morning.

moodytuner 04/ 7/2007 #

So far I just have a file folder in my file cabinet for them. I would really like a better way to keep them where I can go back later and look at them. The photo album is a good idea. Anyone else have an idea?

sara0811 04/ 7/2007 #

user6452 04/16/2007 #

I've received 3 of my cards thus far, but looks like the ones from fishfood and scowlette are still wending their way thru the postal system to Iowa. I sometimes think someone out this way likes to take mine home and read them first.

Chic 04/17/2007 #

Thanks Ninety for your lovely card! Looks great to live in Miami!

SueFitz 04/17/2007 #

Still missing one, but all the other cards have been great.
