Let's celebrate the upcoming end of winter by swapping flower-themed postcards!

For this swap, you will:

  1. Send your two partners one naked and stamped PC each that features flower(s) in some way, shape, or form. Sender's choice otherwise, but please no Zazzle, handmade, or free/ad cards in this swap.

  2. Please write a short message on the back of the card in the message area. This is a requirement. Please write at least 10 WORDS on the back of the card.

  3. Send your card before the deadline.

  4. Take the time when you receive your card to thank your partner.

That's it! A simple swap with just a few requirements to keep swapping courteous and fun for everyone.

Open to all swappers with a 4.9 or higher rating, including newbies!

Have fun!

This is the USA-Only version of the swap. If you are looking for the International version, check here: Flower PC Swap - International

Haven't done a PC swap before. What does naked and stamped mean? If you mail a person a postcard, of course you'd have to wrote on it, so are we just supposed to say what we want to say in 10 words? Lol, help the Grammy out, thanks! Valerie

Naked just means not in an envelope @grandmavalerie :) Just put a stamp on it and send it! That's all naked and stamped means, haha. I remember learning the lingo.

I did set the requirement to at LEAST 10 words because actually you would be surprised. People don't like to write messages on their postcards because it takes too much effort. They'll write absolutely nothing but their name and the swap - absolute laziness. So I made it a requirement to have at least 10 words haha. Just write about whatever you want to! The weather, introduce yourself, check out your partners profile and see if anything sparks your interest - absolutely anything you want! Some people even like to write inspiring quotes or jokes on the back. I'm the type that always likes to pack as much writing into the back of the postcard as I can ;)

Make sure you leave your swap-bot name and the swap name on the card somewhere so your partner can rate you.

Lastly, I hope you end up addicted like the rest of us. If you have any more questions, let me know!

Thank you so much for explaining chelsealake!! I've signed on and ready to go. Now just out of curiosity, what is a zazzle? Thanks and have an awesome day!!

Does this mean just photos of flowers or can it be a painting? I have lots of each kind.

As long as it's not from Zazzle, handmade, or a free/ad card, it's fair game! Art cards are acceptable!

Oh! Sorry, @grandmavalerie Zazzle is a website where you can purchase different sorts of things from clothing to stationery (including postcards) that have images or logos on them from designers. You can get on there and make your own PCs if you want with photos and graphic art. Many people don't collect Zazzle cards so I say no to them in my swaps. It's just a matter of personal taste :)
