Description:

So I've done this same swap the past two years and thought, why not a 3rd time? It's super fun and easy. Plus, the deadline extends into the new year, so there's time to get them done and mailed without missing out on any holiday plans. Going through my holiday cards from last year I'm thinking, "some of these are so cool!" So why not pass them on one more time? 1 postcard for 1 partner. The main idea is that you use cards you received last year and "upcycle" them (or recycle/repurpose) by cutting off the face of the card with the picture on it to create a postcard for your partner. Sender's choice, since these are being re-used. You can write a short thought about the holidays on the postcards, like plans you have the coming year, a tradition you love, a favorite memory. Just make sure it's something nice and festive to bring your partner some holiday cheer! You will have 1 partner to send 1 postcard to. Send the postcard naked (meaning: not in an envelope). Newby friendly as long as you have a filled out profile and at least a few (no less than 3) flat mail swaps completed and rated. No flakers, please, remember this is in the spirit of joy. Happy Holidays and have fun!

Hello there! I am actually new and would like to do this. I have never done anything like this and was wondering if I was still able to do it even though I have not done any flat mail swaps before and have never been rated. Please let me know I should be on until mid-night. Thank you, bunnyhoney
