Description: | |
The world is full of all different post boxes to send our mail... Australia has red ones, USA has blue ones, France has yellow ones.... so for this swap, let's photograph the post box where you normally post your mail. Create three 6"x4" postcards from your post box photo to mail to your partners. (You send one postcard to each partner, which means you send three postcards in total). The photo must be your own photo. Write a message on the back about where it is located - perhaps in a mundane shopping mall, or in some quirky little post office... To create the postcards, have your photographs printed in a darkroom, at a photo lab or at home on your own photo printer. Adhere cardboard to the back of the photo to make it into a postcard (if required). Stamp and send naked (ie: no envelope) to your partner. Newbies welcome with a well filled out profile. Swappers must have no recent 1's or 3's. Happy Swapping!!! (I'm planning on hosting a series of these swaps with different types of post/mail boxes, so stay tuned for further swaps on this theme!) |
