Send me a PM if you think of something I missed. I'm open to suggestions for things to send or themes.

*Please remember to check your partner's profile and avoid dislikes both in colour and theme.

*Please do not use computer generated images because I have been very disappointed by images printed in very poor quality lately. (If you print them well using very good quality paper and ink, your partner won’t know and can’t rate you badly for it can they?? Wink wink!) And no magazine cut outs.

*Please make a beautiful card you are proud of and would be thrilled to receive.

*We are spoiling our partners so please package this nicely!

*Please have a 4.97+ rating to join and no 1's EVER or 3's in the last 6 months. I will accept explanations of course, PM me ahead of the sign up deadline. If you see a flaker has joined, don't worry, I will weed them out but there shouldn't be any on a group like this! If you are really worried, give me a heads up! I’ve been flaked on so many times, I've stopped keeping track, so I get it!
