This will be a fun and simple way to use some of those used postage stamps you've been saving. You will collage a postcard on sturdy card stock. As long as you include at least 5 different used postage stamps, you may use any additional materials you like.

Post card size, shape is up to sender as long as it can be mailed NAKED.

Please make sure to seal the postcard (your choice in how), so that it survives the travel. Please be Neat. :)

On the back briefly explain to your partner about When you first got started writing postcards.

Include Group/Swap/User Name on the back as well.

Questions/Comments/Concerns? Just ask.

A postcard is glued to sturdy card stock, then collage of 5 different used postage stamps glued to postcard?
5 different used postage stamps are glued to front of postcard, or glued to message side of postcard - either?
OR - using a postcard, collage with 5 different postage stamps on the view side, message side?
I don't want to be a p*in in the ass, but I was collaging, gluing used postage to a PC, etc., then read your directions a 2nd time & wondered if I got the directions, requirements wrong?
Not a problem as I can remake PC I'm working on currently. Just need little clarity.

Paige, you are my swap partner for this swap, so I can make you a special PC, within the requirements for this swap.

Sorry I just say this message. This is for a handmade postcard. So you can collage the postcard anyway you would like (on the front) as long as you use at least 5 different stamps. You can use more but at least 5. Does this help?

Yes, thank you Paige! The handmade postcard is finished and ready to mail out.
