Description:
Long title! Fun swap! Thanks to the lovely @knitmom7 for allowing me to redo this swap for our group :) For this swap you are going to use pages from an old book, paperback, newspaper, or comic glued together. It'll take 5-7 pages to make it sturdy enough to mail naked. You may embellish. You may sew them together after the glue dries. You can use fancy stitches if you so desire! PLEASE make sure the glue is dry before you add more pages. Find a page with some blank space for your addresses and stamp. Front and back and insides of the postcard must be from a book. No card stock stuck between the pages! It turns out to be about as thick and firm as card stock when it's all dried. Please mail the postcard naked. Not you, the postcard.

Thank you for hosting this great swap!

It sounds fun - should you use rubber cement glue, or ? And I don't have a sewing machine, should it stay together without sewing at the end?

Can we use address labels? Can we put some blank paper on the back to write on? Thanks!
