Description:

If you've swapped for any length of time, you likely have a growing stash of supplies. If that's the case, this is the swap for you! Participate to quickly and easily clean up some room in your stash.

You will have 10 partners (or as many as sign up, if less than 10). This is completely sender’s choice - you do not even need to look at profiles and can have everything ready to go before partners are assigned.

Be sure to complete ALL THREE steps or risk receiving lots of 3 ratings for this swap!

Step 1
Write a favorite quote on a POSTCARD. Don't forget to put the name of the swap and your name on the postcard. You may decorate the area of the postcard reserved for the stamp/address with stickers or washi, if you want. Any type of post card qualifies for this swap -- tourist, handmade, artsy, zazzle, etc.

Step 2
Put the postcard in a HANDMADE ENVELOPE. The point of this swap is to use up stash - which is why we are placing our postcards into an outer envelope. The outer envelope should be handmade using your paper stash, or if you have a stack of handmade envelopes already, use those.

Step 3
Decorate the outer envelope with STICKERS or WASHI . Decorate as little or as much as you want - sticker slapping is fine.

HERE'S THE IMPORTANT RULE -- do NOT include any extras or tuck-ins. We are using up stash, not adding to it by acquiring new bits!


New-ish members are welcome – but only join if you have a stash to use up and do not need to buy anything.

I’ll ban the questionables for reasons I see fit.

Play nice – send and rate and communicate!

NOTE - I edited the description to make it 3 steps instead of 2, just for clarity. The actual requirements did not change.

I received one of my envelopes back as the label had fallen off. Please let me know if u have not received something from me and I can get it back out to you.
