I love all the Christmas cards that I received and hate to discard them. Let’s keep the Christmas spirit going through 2013! Let’s recycle those Christmas cards! I will be hosting a series of postcard swaps. Recycle a Christmas card into a postcard. Make the postcard 4” X 6”. The subject does not have to be the main theme, but must appear somewhere on the postcard. Below is a list of subjects for each week. If you have a Christmas card that doesn’t fit this list or think of another subject, please let me know and I will add it to the list. Wouldn’t is be great to have one for the whole year. Don’t discard those Christmas cards!

This 8th swap is for any Christmas card made into a postcard with a Christmas plant. Anyone is welcome to join. 1.Any subject 2.Angel 3.Bird or birds 4.Candle 5.Candy cane 6.Cat 7.Children 8.Christmas plant 9.Christmas tree 10.Christmas star 11.Dog 12.Gingerbread person 13.Gift or gifts 14.Horse-drawn sleigh 15.Ice skater 16.Merry Christmas 17.Mouse 18.Nativity 19.Reindeer 20.Santa 21.Shepherds 22.Sled 23.Snow 24.Snowperson 25.Toy or toys 26.Wise Men 27.Wreath Please check profiles.

Would a pine cone be considered a Christmas plant?

Rich

Yes. The plants could be holly, mistletoe (not sure this is spelt right), pine, poinsetta, fir, etc. Anything that is a live plant that could be used for decorating at Christmas

I've got soooo many unused ones that I don't plan to use (leftovers, odd ones from mixed packages, etc)...I need to do this swap over and over lol

Not all Christmas cards are 4 x inch 6 or larger. I received a lot smaller cards on Christmas. So I do have some smaller cards. Can those be send? Or do we have to stick to the 4 x 6 inch rule?

pandakitty 04/14/2013 #

Check with your partner. Some people want only 4 X 6 because of the way they save postcards. Also, different size postcards, cost more to mail.

@Lucine and @pandakitty Could you glue your smaller Christmas card onto a 4x6 card stock and mail it?

Lucine 04/16/2013 #

@Gingerlei Yes, I could. No prob. Will make a nice postcard for my partners:-))
