A Postcard in December

This swap should be fast, easy, and inexpensive -- even for those of us who love to send and receive mail throughout the holiday season but don't necessarily have a lot of extra expenses this time of year.

You will mail one (1) postcard each to two (2) partners. On the back of each card, write one thing you love about the holiday season and one thing you don't love so much about the holidays. That's it! (Well, almost.)

Please also make sure that:

-Your postcards are sent naked and stamped.

-You include your name and the swap name on the back of each postcard.

-Your postcards are clean and in good condition.

Homemade and ad cards are not allowed in this swap (this includes postcards made from greeting cards!). Otherwise, postcards are sender's choice, but please look at your partner's profile and be mindful of any "dislikes" and "please do not send" lists. The front of the card does not need to be holiday themed, but it's fine if you choose to send a holiday postcard to go with your message on back.

This is a very simple swap, so I will allow newbies, though only those with well filled-out profiles. For rated swappers, a minimum rating of 4.97 is required to participate. No excessive 3's, and no unresolved '1' ratings. I will ban anybody who obviously doesn't meet requirements throughout the signup period, and I'll do a thorough check of each profile again before I assign partners. I reserve the right to ban anybody who I think might cause issues with the swap.

Finally, I'll angel if necessary (after you rate your partner with a '1') but please don't flake. If you do flake, you will be named in a flaker-reporting group and you will not be allowed to participate in any future swaps that I host. Please remember that sending on time is part of following the swap guidelines! If something prevents you from doing this, and you don't inform your partner before the end of the swap deadline, you may be rated a '3' for sending late.

I think that covers everything, but feel free to ask me if you have any questions, either via PM or in the comments below. :-)
