...Take YOUR Photo & than attach card stock paper to the back of the Photo. This way it will be able to travel through the postal system with ease. Please be sure your card is at least 4x6. Better yet, how about a 5x7. Although this swap only calls for a 4x6.

...About the Photos you Swap here.I wrote your photo on here for a reason.Please Do Not use a Photo in this swap, UNLESS it's yours. You must have shot the photo yourself. ***Please be sure your Photos are Tasteful & Not Offensive in Any Way.

...Laminating...You could laminate your postcard for this swap if you like. If you do, please make sure you attach a large enough sticker on the back with your writing. And use a laminating machine that will produce a fine cover postcard. No Tape please...

I sticked the photo on the back of a blank postcard,will it get through?

Yes if you make sure it's completely adhered to the card. I use 4x6 blank index cards all the time. I've taped the edges, glued and even machine sewn the edges. You want to make sure an edge won't catch in the postal sorting machine and possibly destroy your card. also write the words "postcard" at the top center of the card. hth

I so love making my own postcards.I just had a few photos printed at CVS. Now I will get them ready for mailing. /earhnk/ What a Great idea to sew them. I wish I could sew. My mother in-law gave me a machine, years ago for my birthday. Happy Swapping
