Description:

This will be a state postcard swap. You will have 5 partners and you will send them each a postcard from your state. You can either write a note on the card about your state and mail it or put the card in an envelope with a short note about your state and mail it. I'm trying to collect a postcard from every state in the United States. This will be a U.S. only swap.

Limitations: Only people with a rating of 4.7 or higher if you are not new. Newbies are welcome with a completed profile only. No recent "no sends" and no more than 3 unexplained no sends. I'll be checking all profiles before partners are assigned and ban anyone I feel is questionable. Please email me if you don't meet these requirements and we'll chat. Ü I hate to be so tight on the rules but I really want this to be fun. Please, if you sign up for this swap, send your items on time. If you think there may be a possibility you are not going to be able to fulfill the requirements, don't sign up. Thanks!! Have fun! Ü

Love this idea! I would welcome any card, but I am trying to get a mapcard of every state, so one of those would be especially appreciated!

I too am trying to get one from every state. My 11 yr old daughter and I are making a scrapbook of every state in the union we are also collecting postcards for a 4-H project that will be judged at our local fair in Sept. Cant wait to see what postcards I get this time

What a great idea for a mom and daughter project. I hope you get all 50 states!! Ü

lvpoohbr2 07/ 9/2007 #

I've changed the limitations a bit and will allow newbies. I've had several newbies emailing me asking if they can join. I hope this is ok with everyone who has already signed up. Ü

I'm another one that is trying to collect at least one postcard from every state. I've been collecting since childhood (off and on).

Blurg 07/ 9/2007 #

so. Does it matter where the postmark is from? (Some people collect postmarks too...) For example, can I send a New Mexico postcard from a Massachusetts post office?

i think it'l be fun to try to collect all 50 states. ... Hmmm, maybe create a classroom project on this...

Blurg:

Gosh, I never thought about it. I just assumed people would send a card from their own state. What does everyone else think?

I was just going through everyone's profiles and information and realized that about half of us are from California. Oh well. I wish I had more control over who gets who in these swaps.

sparklebluefaery, Mildred, Blurg, LvPoohBr2 and Carniemichelle your postcards are in the mail from Georgia!

srbw69 07/23/2007 #

If there is anyone out there that needs a Michigan card for their collection please contact me I will be more than happy to send you one. I know how hard it has been for me to get the ones I have and I only have about 30 of the states. Happy Swappin

KansasKate 07/24/2007 #

Hi. Postcards of Kansas are on their way to Billie Jo, srbw69, ncpelican, violetwit, furrytaz1977.

ladyb 07/25/2007 #

well once again I have received a postcard with no name or even which swap it is from. I'm thinking from the way the card is written it is for this swap. If you had me as a partner to which you sent me a lovely card from OKLAHOMA please pm me and let me know, otherwise I can't rate you - to which I would give a 5+heart because of the nice card and writing but there is no way of knowing who it is. Only 1 of my partners states in their profile where they are from and I received one other one. PLEASE let me know who you are!!!!!

Karenay 07/30/2007 #

Arizona postcards are on their way to BlueCrayons, Only in Cambodia, Tacky Tiffany, DebbieH, and ShannyBo63. Hope you enjoy!
