Description:

This will be a fun swap where you will send each of your 3 partners a fully decorated envelope with a small flat surprise inside. This swap is open to unrated newbie swappers as well as established swappers maintaining a 4.98 or higher rating (no recent/unexplained 1's or 3's) and I reserve the right to ban anyone, at any time and without explanation. This is also international so please be aware when signing up. I am classifying this a type 3 due to the potential of a craft element called for with the envelopes.

Now on to the good stuff!!
You will get 3 partners to whom you will send a flat surprise to. This is senders choice, but it's always nice to check your partners profile so you aren't sending things that they honestly dislike. Keep this in consideration when preparing your swap.
Things you can include are not limited or listed but please send things that are not dirty, torn, broken or would otherwise be generally considered junk OR just send along a few stickers cut from a sheet and call it good. Put some effort into this and send a happy envie you would love to receive! HANDMADES ARE WELCOME! If you like to make cards, send a blank one or two to your partner for them to use. Do you like to make flipbooks? Challenge yourself to create a "flat flipper". Is your partner a Pocket Letter Diva? Make her a mini one! Do you make ATC's? Include one of those if your partner collects them.
Now, it's time to make these envies HAPPY!!! Get out your washi & your stickers or maybe your alcohol inks and stencils. Got stamps? USE 'EM! Are you a Zentangle artist? Draw it up! Like to collage? VIVA LA GLUE! Wax seals and Twine your thing? Attach that string! How about sewing together a FABRIC envie? Gelli print your heart out or watercolor a beautiful scene. Whatever you decide to do - make these envies so cool even the actual MAILBOX smiles!
Here's a link to a google image search for mail art if you need some inspiration.

Don't forget to include your swapbot id and the swap name so you can be properly and promptly rated and SEND ON TIME!!!
If you instagram, feel free to post pics of your outgoing mail with the #happyenvieswap hashtag.

Went to the post office to send mine out today. The man behind the counter complimented my envelopes and said keep up the good work! Made my day.
