CS: Letter-Rate Decos Only #9

This swap will be for one deco that can be sent for letter-rate postage. That means it can fit in an envelope that is no bigger than 6” x 11.5” (152mm x 292mm), is less than ¼” thick (6mm), and less than 3 oz. (85g) in weight.* It also has to be flexible enough to get through the twists and turns of the mail processing machines (i.e. not too rigid). It’s ok if the deco is mailed open like a book in order to fit.

Please consider that future signers will also want to be able to mail it for letter rate and keep your embellishments on the flat side. The goal is for the person who sends it home to also be able to mail it at letter rate.

All stages of deco are welcome: new, established, and last-signers. Please check (and then double check) that your partner’s name does not appear on the deco yet (it isn’t for or by them and they haven’t already worked on it or passed on it). Also, only send more than one if your partner has indicated somewhere that they will take extras.

Don’t forget to sign your deco page and include the swap name and your Swap-bot username in the envelope.

*These measurements are according to the United States Postal Service rules. Other countries may/most likely have different measurements, but for the purposes of this swap we will be using these guidelines. Remember, these are the maximum sizes allowed. Most decos will be smaller than these numbers anyway. The weight and thickness are usually the ones you have to be careful about.
