Description:

This swap based on the one you can find on the Stampington and Co. under "Free Project Ideas" HERE

Make and embellish one postcard envie, the template is HERE

A few ideas: Stamping, stitching, collage, words,phrases, pretty pin-ups, vintage children, flowers, jewelry bits, stickers, jewels, ribbon, game pieces, your own art, layer it, make it pretty.

Then when your done, tuck in a vintage postcard, or a GOOD quality copy on cardstock, postcard size, and mail it to your partner. ONE postcard and envie to ONE partner.

If you didn't make something you'd be happy to get it isn't Somerset.

Senders choice ultimately, but please consider your partner's taste. If they hate butterflies, or green chickens wearing glasses, try and choose something else.

Finally put postcard in cover, package it up safely and send!

All group rules apply and I will check! :-)

May I ask a question please? Do we have to stamp and address the decorated envie, or does the decorated envie containing the postcard go into an outer plain envie for mailing?

GOOD question!!! @mwquilt ! The set is wrapped/packaged and sent together. I will add that!

Can you provide a size for this project. When I go to the template I want to ensure it prints out at the correct size since there are no sizes listed. Thanks! Jan

Hi @jfreeman It doesn't list measurements. However a standard postcard is 4.25 X 6.0 inches ( 10.8 cm X 15.2 cm) So it will need to be a bit bigger. I hope this helps!

It'd be great to have a matching homemade postcard in the envie!
