Description: | |
For this swap you will choose one item that is not originally INTENDED to be a postcard, and send it to your partner as a postcard. Items that can be used (but not limited to) are - old record album covers book covers food packaging bingo cards xl jumbo playing cards game or puzzle box lids other attractive cardboard or thick paper items. Once you find a cool piece of cardboard or thick paper you want to use, cut it down to a reasonable size 4x6 or 5x7 if it is too big. If you are sending something "oversized" make sure there is enough postage included. Make sure is is large enough not to get lost in a sorting machine. It does not need to be Rectangular though, so if you find a $0.99 map puzzle at a thrift store and want to use the lid, consider sending a Texas shaped PC. Have fun and be creative, if you want! Write your partner a little note on the back, maybe decorate it a little with some tape or stickers or rubber stamps. You can cover the back with paper if it is too busy or ugly. If you choose a food package or something with just a plain brown backing, please make it a little special with some kind of personal touch. Just reading "here is your swap" on a plain back is always a little disappointing. This is sender's choice, so think about what you can use ahead of time. Please do check your partner's dislike list just in case they have allergies or "hates", but otherwise it's your call. If you get a "PC" in the mail that was not originally intended to be a PC, please mark a 5. Hearts are up to you. Do not mark down just because you don't like it. One partner each, one PC to each partner. If this is something we like, I will host again. Open to Newbies and swappers rated over 4.95. I will check profiles for problem swappers. I will Angel if there are any Flakers. Please don't flake. |
