Description:

I hosted this in another group and enjoyed it. So I thought I would host it in here...I hope y'all will join.

I don't know about you, but I like to include little note cards with my packages sometimes. (I made the ones in the picture for my partner in the last swap). If the package doesn't really warrant a regular note card, but maybe a little more than a swap card, I always reach for these little note cards.

This is Handmade cards, not store bought. The cards should be about the size of the little gift cards that come with prepackaged wrapping paper sets. (no larger than 3" to 4")

8 June I was asked if altering purchased notecards was okay. I would say yes as long as the altering is enough so that they don't look store bought. Please see the comment section below

So for this swap:

  • 1 partner = 7 mini-notecards / envies

  • Generic Notecards

  • Sender's Choice - (however...I encourage a peek at your partners profile, to make sure that they are not deathly opposed to a particular color) -

  • Minimal Embellishments - Although these will not be mailed, let's keep the 3D embellishments to a minimum (some will be allowed, just not over the top)


I angel all my swaps after the proper rating of "1" has been given. I report all flakers to FOPS.

In the Embellishments you say won't be mailed, is this a mistake?

The correct size of the "Itty Bitty Notecards" are not legal to be mailed. So no it wasn't a mistake, but I can understand how it would be misunderstood. These are meant to be included in a package. It is hard to tell from the picture I included but none of them are over 3 inches in size. Does this make better sense now?

can they be altered? I bought a pkg of mini cards with ugly designs in the center of the cover with the intention of "I can do better" & layering my own designs of patterned paper, etc over their ugly one. Still handmade but the base/envies were purchased.

Yep, as long as the altering is enough so that it doesn't still look store bought, and add a little something-something (a stamp or doodle) so that the envie really matches!

As far as 3D embellishments, would little brads be ok? They're my favorite quick and easy embellishment.

Paige1900 06/13/2013 #

Yes those will be fine.... : )
