Description:
For this swap you will use things around your house, that would normally be tossed out, for what ever reason, and make 5 postcards for your partners. These can be made out of ANY medium. So long as it is not NEW. Left over card stock? Christmas cards? Birthday cards? Grocery boxes? Have a scrap piece of cross stitch fabric? Pieces of wrapping paper? Get the picture? :) Since I am not able to afford international postage at this time, it WILL be for the US only. Sorry. But I will host another one that is INTERNATIONAL, if this one goes over good. Let's say... three partners? If we get more in the swap, then I can bump it up to more, if you want. Today is December 8, 2009. I will leave the swap open for sign ups for one week. Swap will stop taking sign-ups on December 15, 2009. With your finished product to be mailed out no later than, December 26, 2009. That gives you a little over two weeks to make them. :)

5 postcards for 3 people = 15 cards. That's quite a lot. But am disappointed that I can't join this regional swap anyways.

I agree with missysmom ... maybe if this was one partner i would join... 3 partners is way too much when u have to make 5 cards for each

I would love to join this swap but 15 quality cards at Christmas time is difficult for me. Suggestion - let's do this in Jan/Feb

totally with you guys. quantity will greatly affect quality espesially in such a busy period of time.......

I choose the amount of 15, because typically you can get 5 in one envelope, for no more than one stamp. I have sent many that way.

I will change the date for the send out, to Jan 1 if you would like.

Oops.... I meant 5. Sorry!

I like the idea of this swap, but 15 is too many. I can not commit at this time. I will watch swap to see how it progresses. :)

I also love the idea, but 15 is too many for me to commit to

Would love to join if only this was after the busy holidays :(
