SURPRISE POSTCARDS INCOMING! Are you ready to get extreme?????

This swap is for people who want to mix up their postcard stash in a MAJOR way!

(If you don't have enough postcards to swap but still want to participate, buy a boxed set at your local bookstore - they usually come with 100 cards!)

Here's how to play:

You will need 100 blank postcards, in good condition. No ad cards, extremely thin cards, written-on cards, cards folded on the corners, or damaged cards. SEND GOOD STUFF!

Cards can be any subject: boxed set, touristy, art, animals, etc - this is NOT a profile based swap, since we will be sealing our envelopes before partners are assigned.

Before partners are assigned, pack 10 envelopes with 10 postcards each. Make sure you have enough postage on the envelope. Include a note that says your name and the swap name so your partner can rate you.

When partners are assigned, write their names+addresses on the envelopes and drop in the mailbox. Quick turnaround is because we prepared our 10 envelopes in advance!!

This isn't a newbie swap - 100 postcards is kind of a lot and while I do guarantee to angel all my swaps, only well-rated folks may enter this one. Feel free to reach out to me if you're not sure.

Excited for this swap! =) I'd encourage folks to use labels when addressing prepared envelopes, if possible. Writing an address directly onto a postcard-filled envelope sometimes transfers the writing as an indent on a postcard. Wouldn't want to "damage" a blank postcard with someone's address indented onto it. Something to consider at least. =)

A note to confirm - if you're wary about this swap because you don't want to risk being flaked on for such a big swap - I'm making sure that no one who has 3s or 1s has any that are recent, and I will angel for anyone who doesn't get a swap that meets requirements! So you can swap with confidence!!

We've done this once before and it was successful - didn't have to angel anyone!

Looking forward to this, besides the label suggestion above, I also recommend using a heavy envelope!
