Description:

I have a lot of unrated swappers who are interested in my snail mail envie swaps so I'm hosting one for them this time around. If you're not a newbie, please feel free to join as well!

Hello everyone! This is for lovers of postage stamps, mail art & surprises! And since it was so successful and fun, I'd love to host it again! I host this swap outside of the group as well if anyone wants to join that too.

For this swap we will be sending 1 partner an envelope.

The envie ✉:

ミ☆ Needs to have at least 3(different) postage stamps on it. This will be easy for envies going international, for US, you can break down our 49c or add extra postage.

ミ☆ Needs to have some kind of mail art. A doodle, a collage, stickers, anything goes! Just make it something fun to receive.

ミ☆ Inside the envie will be a small flat surprise: stickers, postcards, used postage stamps, inspiration, tea, anything!

Please, if you are new, fill out your profile including links to your photos or blog.. anything! We want to see what you like! Please PM me with any questions! I will be angeling this swap if need be.

I am unclear if the envie mentioned is the outer envelope or inside another envelope or if it can be either. The envelopes I make are usually dressed up in such a way that it is safer to enclose them inside another envelope to keep it from being torn by the postal system. Is that acceptable? If so, does the outer envelope have to be dressed up too? Please pardon all my questions--I'm a newbie and want to do things right. Thanks!

@FriendlyFerret - The envelope that you decorate is the one you're sending out so the world can see it, not to be put inside of another envelope. It's the one you would put your stamps on. Hope that makes enough sense?

I am not late- I did mail my swap put. It was on the 17th. MQ
