Description:

Do you love to send and receive holiday cards, but not sure what to do with them ALL after the holidays? This is a fun way to share all the different images.

A magpie collects bits here and there and puts them together. The holiday card magpie will collect holiday cards. :) For this swap, you will need to include at least 15 holiday cards you receive in the mail this year. You can tear the front picture from the back, if you wish, to save the personal messages. Tape or glue the card fronts into a journal to send to your partner. If you wish to include items from the envelopes - decorated stickers, holiday stamps or such, you can add that as well. But all items should come from holiday cards as much as possible. Edit Dec 31 - The minimum number of pages should be 15 - so, 1 card per page, minimum. You can certainly include more, if you wish. You can use both sides of the page or just the front - it's up to you.

For this swap, you can use a store bought, bound journal, or you can make your own journal. The journal should be large enough for the largest card, so it will vary depending on the size of your cards. You may include homemade cards, postcards, and store bought cards - all are fine for this swap. (If you are feeling crafty, maybe collect the envelopes as well, to make the pages of the journal!) Please be sure any journal - store bought or handmade - is neatly made and the pages don't fall out of the book. Extra decoration or embellishment isn't required.

This swap will be US Only, and you will have until the end of January to craft and mail the swap off, so you can enjoy your cards through the season. But you can craft the journal earlier, if you wish. This swap is not profile based. :) If anyone would be interested in an International version, please let me know. Please remember, as this swap is based on cards we receive in the mail, you may get images of cards you don't care for. Your partner is not required to create a journal specifically for you.

I don't often check the comments on swaps I'm hosting, so *if you have a question, please send me a PM and I will reply as soon as I can.**
