Spell STAMP with Postcards

Group:Postcard Lovers
Swap Coordinator:Onyx (contact)
Swap categories: Postcards 
Number of people in swap:10
Location:International
Type:Type 2: Flat mail
Last day to signup/drop:March 19, 2011
Date items must be sent by:April 2, 2011
Number of swap partners:1
Description:

For this swap you will be sending 5 postcards in an envelope to one partner, all centered around the idea that you will be spelling the word STAMP with your postcard themes.

At least 3 of the 5 postcards should be new, unwritten on postcards. The other 2 can be vintage/recycled/quartered/ upcycled/repurposed/whatever as long as it's something fun and something you think you would like you receive.

All cards will be senders choice and you should probably include a note telling your partner how each card relates to each letter.

Here's an example, just in case someone might find it helpeful. SarahtheSwapper puts together her envelope and she sends the following five PCs to her partner:

S = Homemade strawberry pie recipe postcard T = New postcard featuring various types of trees A = New postcard featuring acrobats M = Vintage map postcard P = New postcard featuring penguins

That's just an example: you can use any words, themes or quantities that follow the swap guidelines and that work with S, T, A, M and P.

Have Fun & Happy Swapping, Onyx

I love the idea that 2 don't have to be unwritten-on or store-bought. Nice one! :) (Watching until I clear some of the backlogue of swaps I'm signed up for.)

That is an awesome idea. Very creative, thanks!

So happy folks are liking the idea! There are still a few more days to sign up and plenty of time to send between the sign up date and the send date so sign up if you feel inclined.

I will also be happy to angel for folks if you end up having to rate your partner a 1, or find angels if we end up with a bunch of cases ... I look at profiles and such before assigning partners though, so hopefully that won't happen.
