Description:

I've coordinated this swap twice for my Notecards to Go group, and figured it was about time to try it site-wide. It is one of my favorite swaps.

Do you have a notecard in your stash that is just so perfect, just so amazingly you, that you can't imagine using it and not ever getting to look at it in your stash again? I do. Lots of them. Sometimes I use them to write myself a note, mail it to myself, and then I get to keep it forever without leaving it naked (not that there is anything wrong with naked) and bereft. But, a note to myself is sometimes just not enough.

So, for this swap you will send one (1) notecard, blank, with its envelope, to one (1) partner. That notecard is the one you can't imagine parting with, but don't worry! Your partner will write you a note on that lovely card and send it back to you. When you send your "can't part with" notecard, also send a note to your partner letting him/her know what is so special about the one you want returned.

Partners need to return the beloved notecard, all clothed in written words, within two weeks, please. Did I mention "please"? I hope I did because it is really, really sad when folk don't follow through. I know life has its ups and downs, but this swap carries karma ... if you follow through, ups will be on the upswing ;-)

I LOVE this idea! But oh the trust issues!!

What if we SASE'd the return note as well to (try to) ensure its trip back home?

I sometimes add the postage on the return, but only because I have special postage I like to use, however, I don't think it guarantees a return trip. I've never been burned on an exchange like this, though.

Watching this one:) I've had this note card- actually more of a blank greeting card since I was 21 and it seriously is one I've never parted with lol- thinking about this swap though, it's such a cute card that I want to share it if even just to "see" it:) and then return it.
