Description:

Did you know that April is National Letter Writing Month (NLWM)? In honor of it, let's have some letter writing fun. [Partners will be assigned in April and we can get started on our swap, but we'll spill into May for the mailing date.]

You will create, write and send your partner a fun mini letter in a mini handmade envelope. You will also include a mini surprise.

By mini, your letter will be roughly the size of an artist trading card (ATC): 2.5" x 3.5" (6.4 cm x 8.9 cm). If you need a mini ATC envelope template, This website has a good one: http://www.ruthannzaroff.com/mirkwooddesigns/atcenvelope.htm

You are to decorate your mini letter and mini envelope in some way. (A few ideas: colorful doodling, washi tape, rubber stamping...anything to make it fun.)

Please write on the front and back of your mini letter and put it into the mini envelope, along with the mini surprise.

You will then put the mini envelope into a larger envelope for mailing. It will need to at least meet the minimum USA size requirements of 5" long x 3 1/2" high. You may put it into a larger envelope if you wish.

Please decorate this mailing envelope in some way as well.

Please take a peek at your partner's profile to get ideas on what they might like for a mini surprise. You may also have some ideas of your own.

Are you up for this fun challenge?
