Description:

This swap seems to be catching on so here is another :) Thanks to everyone who participated last time around.

For this swap you will send 1 self-mailing letter (that means NO envelope is involved) to 3 partners introducing yourself. I found a website called Letterfu.com and they have designs and instructions on how to print out a template to mail. Im sure you can find more sites that have cool designs, if you would like to share it below in a comment, im sure everyone will appreciate it :) This is a really neat swap and the best part, its only one stamp and because of that, this swap will be open to International swappers as well (please note::for International partners its one .98 cent stamp)

This will be a newbie friendly swap :) Hope you guys join and if you have any questions or input, please feel free to contact me :)

Here are the instructions from the website and the link: http://www.letterfu.com/index.php

Step One: Print a Design onto a sheet of A4 or Letter paper from letterfu.com * Select a layout from the list of designs. * Take a blank sheet of A4 or Letter paper. **** When printing, MAKE SURE PAGE SCALING IS SET TO "NONE"! Otherwise, the fold won't work properly.****

Step Two: Write your letter * Write your letter on the unprinted side of the letter. Use a ballpoint pen if you have thin paper - it shows through the other side less. * Be creative! Doodle, and don't worry about keeping your writing in straight lines. Wild letters are much more fun to read.

Step Three: Address the letter * Write the address of the person you're sending the letter to on the letter before you fold it. * Write your own address on the reverse so that the letter can be sent back to you if it doesn't make it to your recipient.

Step Four: Fold the letter * Fold the letter up as per the instructions on the printed side. All of the folds are "mountain" folds (i.e. they all cover up the written side of the letter) with the exception of fold five, which is a "valley" fold.

Step Five: Stamp and Send! * Place a stamp across the diagonal edge on the front of the letter to help hold it closed. * Drop the letter in any letterbox!

You have a known flaker in your swap @tazwoman .. she has flaked on multiple children, has a recent 1 for flaking, and continues to try to sign up for new swaps despite the many hosts that ban her anyways. She is also sending nasty messages to hosts who ban her. You as a host need to know as do your participants that may get partnered up with her.

She is no longer in this swap. I truly hope no one drops from this swap because of her. At one point I had 13 people in my swap, now i only have 5 :( Please be well aware that I ALWAYS check who joins my swaps and i remove known bad swappers. Hope you guys come back and join this swap.

@cajunhillbilly you have strongly complained about this swapper in a lipstick swap I took part in.. too much fuss over her on that swap forum that made me so pissed off over the coordinator for not banning her when I ended up with her as a partner.. but the funny thing is, she did send me a wonderful swap, I don't support flakers at all but at that point she had very few 1s and the fuss over her was worst than the actual problem and u weren't even in the swap you just appeared to warn like here. Anyway she seems to be deleted now but still maybe you should have given her a chance before going off so strongly. (I was just browshing through this swap when I saw the discussion)

Aww, I missed this round! I was in round #2 and loved it. Hopefully there is a round #4 so I can join in!

RedLucha 06/29/2011 #

@Whimzies there will be so keep an eye out ;)

That's a good idea for a design. I've recently been thinking about how to improve my website. madwire web design reviews helped me in choosing a company to build a website. I was looking for a long time for a reliable partner to develop a website for my business and came across many positive reviews about Madwire Web Design. After deciding to trust them, I received top-notch service and a professional approach. I now have a great website that attracts more customers.
