This will be like my last postcard addicts swap, only a little different. Each person will send one (1) stamped and written on card to five (5) different people.

So, you'll send 5 cards and receive 5 cards.

What type of cards should you send? This swap is the Postcard Addicts #2 RANDOM swap...so the cards you send can be just about anything, except for free/ad/rack cards.

Cards can be from your hometown/area or somewhere else in the world.

Please make sure to only send cards that you'd like to receive yourself.

If anyone has preferences for what types of cards they'd like to receive (if possible), feel free to make a comment below!

Thanks!

UPDATE: Please makesure to write Swap-bot Postcard Addicts #2 or Swap Bot 462 on the cards before you mail them out!

these cards can be made in our home, correct?

amybelle 07/20/2006 #

it could be anything but a free/rack/ad card, so handmade is ok!

groovyholly 07/22/2006 #

I love handmade cards and free/rack/ad cards are cool with me too. I really love the funky artsy ones, so send those if they're hanging around.

Zmrzlina 07/30/2006 #

I love homemade, too. Just don't like religious themes.

amybelle 07/30/2006 #

I love lighthouses, sailboats, sunsets, cityviews, scenic views, mountains, waterfalls, UNESCO, handmade...

AshleyShea 08/ 1/2006 #

Amybelle, your interests and mine are the same. I LOVE lighthouses and oceans and other natural scenes.

rutabaga 08/ 1/2006 #

user2217 08/ 2/2006 #

Hi everyone, i'm pulling this together now and realize that i don't have a clue about postcard postage outside of the US. Does anyone know that can easily advise? Thanks!

Zmrzlina 08/ 2/2006 #

55¢ for Canada and Mexico and 75¢ for everywhere else. However, if the card is even a teeny bit oversize it is full letter rate, 63¢ Canada and Mexico, 84¢ everywhere else.

user2217 08/ 3/2006 #

Thank you SOOOOO much for the info - I really appreciate it! I had no clue and am wanting to mail these. So, I'm off to get these going. Thanks again!

I have just scrolled back through the comments and find that I didn't thank Zmrzlina for the card which arrived first, before any one else's. So ... thank you :-)

I received a card from a teacher in North Carolina but she didn't write her name and I have another card that never got to me so I can't find who it is by the process of elimination. If you sent me that card please let me know so I can give you positive feedback.
