Number of swap partners:3
Description:

Simple rules:

*3 Partners

*ONE Postcard each

*Must be sent NAKED (no envelopes)

*MUST be postmarked DECEMBER 12, 2012. This is important and is the ENTIRE point of the swap!!!!

*If it DOES NOT have the correct date stamp, you MUST rate your partner a 3! To avoid getting a bad rating, PLEASE TAKE THE TIME to stand in line at the post office and GET A HAND STAMP! Ask to watch them stamp it. Tell them it's for a collector so that they make the stamp nice and the date visible.

*Share something about yourself, a favorite quote, how the weather was today, say something cheerful, etc.

*NO free/ad cards

*Handmade cards are welcome and encouraged as long as they are of sturdy construction to make it through the postal system without being damaged.

*Sender's Choice but please try to take the time to read your partners profile. Only send something that you would be excited to receive.

*Newbies welcome, but everyone MUST have a well-filled out profile. No 1's or 3's in the last 6 months UNLESS you PM me or if you have successfully swapped with me in the past. I will be checking and am not afraid to ban potential flakers with bad ratings that do not communicate.

Please don't be a FLAKER! This is such an easy peasy swap. No one wants to get flaked on, especially for this kind of swap where time is so important.

I will angel this swap by having a bunch of post cards with the correct date stamp sent to my own address. Then if I MUST angel, you will get your replacement in an envie. Don't worry, you WILL get a 12-12-12 postcard in this swap, but your partner must receive theirs for me to send you YOUR angel. Got it? (I hope that makes sense and is fair to all)

Again, please send something that you would be excited to receive yourself.

i would like to sign up for this, except the 10-11-12 swap - out of the three I received only one was postmarked correctly & it was machine done. I went in & had all mine hadnstamped 10-11-12.

I had that happen in the last "date specific - hand cancel" swap I was in too. But that was the only time... the others have all been okay.

I'm in for this one.

Can I ask that whoever gets me address it to my son? That happens to be his 3rd birthday and I think it would be really cool for him :} His name is Sullivan- if not that's ok too- never hurts to ask!

Tara, put this in your profile. Most people check profiles before mailing off Postcards. You could also Pm your senders. I think most people would of course be willing.
