This is a Cardboard Postcard swap (CBPC). You will send one card each to 3 partners.

The postcards should be made out of reused cardboard saved from the trash/recycling. Please use only CLEAN cardboard. Additional decoration is strictly optional - only a chunk o' cardboard is required. This is a Letters and Writing swap, so please be sure to include a message.

Postage from the US to Intl destinations is $.85 for Canada & Mexico, and $1.05 for everywhere else. That should be good for cards up to 6 1/8" x 11 1/2".

PLEASE BE SURE TO SPECIFY ON YOUR POSTCARD THAT THIS IS THE INTERNATIONAL SWAP. THANKS!

If you have any questions, please PM me - I don't check the comments often.

Some Housekeeping Info

Firstly, thanks so much for joining my swaps, people. It's a lot fun for me. They've grown in size to the point where I need to take some steps to control the amount of time that it takes to manage them.

  • Communicate Communicate Communicate If you are going to send late, please let your partner know. If you don't receive an item, please let the sender know. If you run into an issue that you can't resolve, then let me know and I'll do what I can to help work it out.

  • Senders Let your partner know if you need to send late. It's the right thing to do. Please remember to mark your swap as "sent" before the deadline (but only if you have actually sent it!) Before assigning partners for future swaps, I will remove anyone who has an item not marked as "sent" for a previous swap. If you want to be in the next swap, then send your items and mark them as sent.

  • Recipients I'm counting on you to let me know about any problems. I won't be checking up to see who's naughty and who's nice. If you haven't received anything a week or two after the swap deadline, please let your partner know. If you don't get a satisfactory response from your partner, let me know and I'll try to help. If you still don't receive an item, leave a "1" rating then contact me to send an angel replacement. I will angel only if you leave an appropriate rating. Accurate ratings are the only way I can weed out unreliable senders from future swaps. And that's good for everyone.

Hello! This seems like such a fun swap, i love pc swaps that don't have to be "STORE BOUGHT" stamped all over it. And so simple too, a chunk of cardboard! Love the idea! i'm a newbie here, and it says i cannot join 'cause i dont have any ratings yet. Well, i have sent a couple of type 2 swaps, they are in transit and still have to be rated. Can this swap PLEASE be changed to include unrated swappers? I really want to join :)

I have removed the waxed and freezer box restriction. Oh, boy! Go nuts, people, and send out those fish sticks boxes!
