Description:
Make a 4"x 6" postcard out of a food box. It can be cereal, some type of snack, etc...Just needs to be cardboard!! You will have 3 partners....so you will make one PC for each of those partners. Although it isn't a requirement, you can be as creative as you would like to be(sometimes I add a little glitter....you can "spice it up" as much as you like...just remember it has to be mailed naked). Please do write on the back about when you ate it, why you like it, was it a snack for your child..... Start saving those boxes so you'll be ready to mail out when the time comes!! *Postcards should be mailed naked (stamped and written on). Everyone is welcome to join in....but I have the right to ban if I feel the need!! (I can, I'm the host! HA!)

@heather1971 I do that with all my swaps! I get so excited that they're done and ready to go before the sign up deadline has even come up!

I had never made one or even seen one before, so I had fun searching them out and fortunately, had several empty boxes on their way out to be recycled.

Is drink packaging okay? For instance those juice pouches and boxes?

As long as it is cardboard packaging, it will be OK!

I just finished making dinner and I'm sitting down to measure my soon-to-be PCs out. Gotta love Hamburger Helper!
