Description:

This is a swap for both mail art newbies and mail art veterans. Just want to make sure to keep that in mind when rating. Of course, don't reward work that's sloppy or sticker-slapping (while stickers ARE okay, just stickers is not), but appreciate it if your partner puts in some effort.

That being said, this swap is for altered postcards! Take a regular store-bought postcard and add some of your own artwork to it, whether that be collage, embellishments, painting, drawing, etc. You can add your art to both the front and back, but please don't neglect the front, as it's the post important part! Also, be sure not to put your art in the way of where your postage will inevitably go.

The theme can be whatsoever you choose. It's always nice to look at your partner's profile so you can avoid any extreme dislikes.

If you're stuck looking for ideas, if you google "altered postcards" a TON of cool ideas pop up!

So do we write on it or send it in an envelope? This is my first time altering a postcard and I'm so excited!!
