Description:

Do you have a storebought postcard that is beyond dull? Want to spice it up a bit? For this swap you will take 1 storebought postcard and change it/ alter it in some way. Maybe you will add a moustache and a funny hat to that potrait? What unexpected object(s) are in that dull old landscape? You get the idea. Let your creativity run wild, but keep in mind this postcards will be sent naked so please keep it flat and not too fragile.

I have labled this swap Altered Postcard #1 because if it goes well I may repeat it.

So to repeat:

1 storebought postcard to 1 partner, altered

Who can join? No recent 1's and 3's (unless unfair, message me).

This has a shorter turn-around since aren't creating works of art.

Have fun!

May we use a vintage postcard?

yes vintage is fine

I have postcards I collect that are not store bought will that be acceptable? They're art cards or movie cards.

By store bought I mean a professionally created card that a not an advertisement. If your cards fit into that description go ahead.
