Date items must be sent by:July 6, 2010
Number of swap partners:1
Description:

Get out your old magazines, scissors, letter stickers and glue! You will receive (1) ONE partner for this swap. Make them a "ransom" style postcard of your favorite quote or saying, on any background you choose! If you'd rather make it a silly ransom note, be aware that the post office will probably give you funny looks. :D Please use a sturdy cardstock base. :)

This is an INTERNATIONAL swap, as postage should be inexpensive, and you won't need to buy any material! Use up your old magazines and those pesky left over letter stickers that you can't seem to make a full word with!

Two things to keep in mind: Postcards must be sent NAKED (stamped, written on and mailed without an envelope), and the post office has restrictions on the THICKNESS of a postcard, so only use very flat stickers. Also, I suggest you use scrapbook quality glue or adhesive to avoid wrinkling thin magazine paper.

Newbies welcome! No rating requirement, so you may use this to help bring up any bad ratings. This is a very easy swap, that any "creativity" level can do! I will angel (or welcome other angels) if necessary. DO NOT FLAKE. I will ban anyone from future swaps if they do.

I updated the "sent by date" because I just realized US post offices will be closed on the 5th due to the 4th of July. :)

Is it okay to cover these with clear packing tape, just in case of letter-peelage?

whosthatgrrl 06/25/2010 #

I had the same idea of covering the letters with clear packing tape too.

madpoetics 06/26/2010 #

that's fine! :)

Could I cover it with modge podge?

madpoetics 06/26/2010 #

yes, you can cover it with anything you want :)

Oh no, I missed this swap. Please remind me when you create a new one. I will keep my pc for the next one.

Thank you.

i just saw this swap listed on someone's profile, and am sad I missed the deadline. I did a couple of these last month, and I used mod podge to cover the letters. It worked for the ones I sent!
