Holy Shmoly, it's time for round 7!

Are you trying to create a deck of cards that are from 52 different decks, with 52 different designs on them? Or do you create ATCs or Rolos using playing cards? Or are you into altering books or other items where a playing card would be a cool item to add to your ephemera collection? If so, here's a fun way to add to your stash or ongoing deck.

Here's what you do. Find 3 different decks of cards - they may be missing a few cards, or purchase some cool decks from special places in your locale (I found some recently at Goodwill). Let's keep them standard size, not tiny or huge (around 2.5 X 3.5). No BICYCLE-type red or blue backed cards, please. (And PLEASE don't just send cards you've received in this swap from someone else. Chances are, the original sender has already sent them to everyone!)

Send THREE of those cards, one from each different deck, to five different partners. Make sure all three have different designs. That way we can make up our own decks more quickly.

Some of us that have been doing this awhile have added a list of cards that would finish up our decks onto our profile. However, this is a "pot luck" type of swap. Checking profiles is great, thoughtful, etc, but not required.

Let's Play Cards!

I'll angel any flakers!
