Description:

This is the swap for people who have a lot of spare postcards laying around that need to find a new home. You are going to send 26 postcards to one partner. You have to choose a postcard to represent each letter of the alphabet in some way. Some may require you to be a little more creative than others. Include each postcard either labeled or a piece of paper with your choices.

For example:

A- a postcard with an Apple

B- a blue postcard

C- a postcard with a cat

and so on and so forth through the whole alphabet. (These are not assignments. It is up to you to find postcard ideas for each letter. Feel free to post below to brainstorm with others if you are lost on an idea.)

Do not join unless you are prepared to send all 26 postcards! Have fun with it. Not all postcard choices have to be obvious, as long as you have an explanation as to why you chose it. Please rate positively if you have received all 26 postcards and your partner made an attempt to match them to each letter.

Participants must have completed 10 previous 2 or 3 type swaps. Postcards are to be unused and store bought all in a single envelope together. Feel free to ask questions for for ideas on what postcards you could use.

So we get to choose what thing represents the letter--you're not assigning it? In other words, we don't have to send a blue PC for B, but it might have a boat or a bear or some other "B" word.

Intriguing. I'll watch it and see if I can managae to find stuff for all of these.

I have over 100 postcards from different states since I travel. I could send 26 postcards easily.....but i dont think i have 26 that I can alphabetized. sorry....

Sounds like fun! If they weren't naked I'd do it but that's kinda pricey to send all 26, to the same partner, separately....Yeah.... no can't do it but I'm sure the post office will be forever in your favor. LOL!

@carol You get to choose whatever you want for each letter. It could be blue, or a boat, or a boy, or a balloon... whatever you can think of.

@Typicalfemale It would be interesting to go through your 100 postcards and see if you can find something on them for each letter.

@Larina Sorry I think that was not worded correctly (I fixed it). You are sending them as a group in an envelope, not as individuals.

Yay!!! Thanks so much, I'm excited!

I got stumped on X but my husband had THE ART OF STAR WARS box of postcards. I found the X-wing postcard!
