Description:

This swap is for all those who love getting their hands busy snipping, gluing, stamping, drawing, painting, etc.!

  • Make one postcard for one partner.

  • dimensions should be at least 4 x 6 inches (10.5 x 15 cm)

  • use already cancelled/received postage for the "theme". But the theme of the theme is up to you! ;-) (Say that 5 times fast!)

  • Address it as you would any other postage and send it through the mail system.

  • make sure it's minimally chunky as the postal trolls love to get their machines on things like these and grind them up! (I have my post office hand cancel my artsy stuff such a this -- perhaps your post office will do that for you as well. In Canada they actually have a yellow sheet they will use to cover the piece of mail and it says "Manual Sort Mail" ).

Ratings must be at least 4.98. NO recent unresolved 1's or 3's. I cannot angel this swap!

Does it have to be all postage stamps, or can it be a mix of stamps and a nice image on top for example?

@Uniflame - the design is your choice. It's up to you how you incorporate postage stamps with other elements. Thanks for asking -- others may have wondered this as well.
