Description:

This is an easy and inexpensive craftswap. Find a book with lovely images. A book you don't want to keep for yourself, because it's getting damaged! Cut the image out of the book, make it about 4"x6" and glue it on cardboard. Make sure it is stuck well to make it through the post. Send the card naked to your partner. Don't forget your Swap-Bot name and the name of the swap.

If you don't have such a book, you might find one in a thriftstore. It is also allowed to print a bookimage from internet, as long as it is printed in high quality. It's allowed (but not required) to use some sort of seal or adhesive plastic to protect your card, if you think that is needed.

Here's a tip: if (like me) you have several ugly postcards that you think you'll never send, use those as a base / backing to glue the image to, then trim around it.

Good idea! Thanks for the tip :-)

I mailed my PC on Sept. 18 but just realized today that I did not follow the swap directions exactly. I have pmd my partner to advise I will send another PC by the swap deadline and will change my "sent" date when it goes out.

Sometimes these things happen. Thanks for explaining, and the solution :-)
