Description:

Do you love hand drawn, or painted postcards? I sure do! Nothing like getting a beautiful work of art in your mailbox to brighten your day.

This time around we'll play with flowers! Paint or draw some beautiful flowers on your postcard! Make them realistic, stylized, simple kid like daisies, one giant one, or a series of small flowers as a pattern....just send some floral love to your partner!

Create one lovely hand drawn or painted artwork on a 4x6 or 5x7 (your choice depending on your preference) sized postcard. Send it off to your partner. Simple as that. Send your postcard naked. No sense in hiding it in an envelope! let that beautiful work of art brighten even the postman's day!

Remember, we're all at varying degrees of skill/style. Rate based on receiving a postcard that is on theme and someone put some work into. Don't rate solely on skill level.

As with all my swaps, if you have a problem please let me know. I angel when necessary.

I check profiles before partner assignments. Not recent 1 or 3s within the last 6 months. I check for log in at least two days prior to the partner assignment.

Be KIND and send on time. Be GREAT and RATE!

Yes @Paige1900 All skill levels. I think everyone should have fun and draw as much as possible!

I should ask my post office but what kind of stamp do you use for postcards? I have forever stamps but I feel like postcards should be cheaper

ViridianMuse 06/21/2015 #

@greenhotdogs They used to be cheaper, but I'm not sure if they are now. I'll ask my postman tomorrow. He's "in the know " :)

For US MEMBERS: Postage costs on mailing postcards.

First Class Postcard rate: Maximum size 4 1/4 x 6 and .016 thick = $0.35 cents to mail.

First Class Large Post Card rate: Maximum size 11.4 x 6 1/8 x 1/4 thick. $.049 to mail.

International Postcards require an international "Forever" stamp

Thanks! I might as well throw a forever stamp on mine lol I think thy used be cheaper than normal mail...makes sense to me... oh well. Thanks for all your help !!

No problem @greenhotdogs :) Glad I could help. They did used to be cheaper. I think with each change to the first class rates, they keep edging the cost of the others closet to first class.
