Hi everyone! I wanted to start a postcard swap with a 'floral' theme for September.

You will need to make one postcard using stamps (or digital images) relating to flowers and will receive one from another Postcard Swapper in exchange. On the closing day of this post I will draw names to see who is sending to whom and post that list.

I will close the sign up on September 15th and your postcard should be mailed by September 20th.

Reply to this thread to indicate that you want to play.

Postcards should be 3-4 by 5-6 inches (max 4.25" by 6") and made from heavy duty card stock so that it does not get eaten by the postal machines. Postcard stamps are currently 28 cents.

So everyone will be making 1 (one) postcard only and receiving 1 (one) so this is a really easy swap!

These are postcards and as such part of the fun of collecting them is the post office cancellation marks, etc. Time to to let go a bit and learn to send your "masterpieces" off as is, so NO ENVELOPES (or protective coverings).

All right, who's playing?
