Description:

I borrowed this swap from @smadronia with her permission. :)

We've all had this happen: a postcard or two in your collection gets kind of mangled. Maybe it got stepped on, maybe something was spilled on it. Maybe it's bent. Or maybe a corner was torn off. Whatever the reason, your postcard is now less than perfect. And may be you don't feel so good about sending it to someone, because you don't want them to think you don't care.

We're going to fix that with this swap.

Find a postcard that's seen better days. Address it to your partner, and write a short note about why it's damaged. It doesn't have to be a true note, maybe aliens borrowed it, or your non existent dog ripped the corner off.

Then send it off, knowing your postcard will have a good home elsewhere, and you don't have to feel guilty that it's not pristine. This swap is Sender's Choice for the postcard, what's damaged to you may not be damaged to the person receiving the card, but all that matters is you consider it damaged.

This is also Sender's Choice for the mailing form. You can send it naked (written on and stamped), in an envelope blank, in an envelope and written on, or some other method of your choosing. Want a shot at a heart? Check your partner's profile and see if they list how they prefer to receive cards.

This is a simple swap, folks, you should already have the postcard with you, so no flaking please. I can't angel so I'll check all profiles and remove everyone who looks suspicious.

I love this kind of swap. I have lots of postcards with a small crease in one corner.
