Description:

Hello!

This swap is for one postcard (3.5"-4" by 5"-6") for one partner, which you will color and send "naked" through the mail (with a message from you, not inside an envelope). I have rated it a type 3 swap because of the time-intensive craft component.

Before partners are assigned, please note below if you do NOT want a holiday-themed postcard. If you haven't made this notation in the comments section before partners are assigned, your partner may rightly assume that you're fine with holiday themes.

Once partners have been assigned, be sure to check the comments section below to ensure that you don't send a holiday-themed postcard if your partner prefers not to receive one.

Then...
Choose a coloring postcard or a coloring page. Be sure that it (or the portion of it that you'll be coloring) fits the dimensions listed above. If you choose a coloring page, you will adhere it completely to a cardstock or other appropriate backing to make it into a postcard that will be strong enough for its journey to your partner.

Next...
Color in your image using only red, green, and white (black is, of course, fine as well). Feel free to draw or zentangle as part of the process. You can use one shade or multiple shades of red and green, and even think about using a white pen on top of darker areas if you choose. The main thing is to have fun and enjoy this little challenge.

and Finally...
Affix appropriate postage to your postcard. Write a message to your partner (at least a few lines or a quote or a recipe), along with a notation of your user ID and the name of this swap. Mail the postcard to your partner before the swap deadline.

You will have ten full days after partners have been assigned to make and send your red, white, and green colorful creations. Please do not sign up for this swap if you won't be able to send on time.

This swap is only open to folks with a 4.98 or higher overall rating. I will angel this swap if necessary once you have attempted to contact your partner and honestly rated a "1" for a no-send.

Please contact me via PM if you have any questions or concerns.

Have fun coloring!

Would you host this for USA Only?

Hi @Fritosmom :) As it's only the cost of one postcard stamp, I'm going to leave it open to everyone. Please feel free to host a USA only version if you'd like! :) I'm aware that it's $1.15 for an international stamp from the U.S., but I want people from all over the world to be able to participate. ♥
