Hello Everyone! Believe it or not, the Holidays are right around the corner! I wanted to extend an invitation to participate in a Holiday Card Swap. Several of us exchanged on the LPS Forum last year and it was a lot of fun. The cards aren't necessarily specific to LPS or a certain holiday, but its open for you to send any greeting you like. A custom IMP card would be great as well!
The card swap is so exciting because you receive so many holiday cards in the mail. And who doesn't love to receive a note of cheer around the holidays?
How the swap works (Thanks to our host last year, I copied the rules below):
When you sign up, you send me your mailing address. When sign ups close, I then send everyone a list of all the participants and their addresses (minus your own of course) and you send a card to everyone on your list. If we get 8 people who sign up, everyone would be sending out 7 cards, make sense? Easy peasy lemon squeezy. International members are most welcome!
Swap Info:
Sign up deadline: November 20th
Mailing deadline: December 7th
Rules:
--Cards may be handmade or store-bought and must be regular greeting card size (no teeny tiny cards, you are welcome to go larger just be aware there may be extra postage).
--Cards may be all the same or tailored to each participant (or some of each
).
--Cards may be for any winter holiday or general winter. Be prepared to receive cards that may be celebrating a different holiday than you do.
--Be prepared to send cards internationally, which costs more than regular mail.
--All cards must be postmarked by the mailing deadline. If you need to mail your cards out late PM me immediately!
--Once the sign up deadline has passed and addresses have been exchanged, you may not back out of the swap! Negative feedback will be left for anyone who does not send out their cards.
If you are not certain you will be able to meet the deadlines or follow all the rules, do not sign up!
--Most important rule: Have fun!!
To sign up:
post in this thread your holiday of preference, and your favorite thing about winter/the holidays (in case any participant wants to tailor their cards) and then PM me your mailing address. Once I receive your address I will post your username in our list of participants!
You can also sign up on the LPS forum if you are a member there as well. I'll be sure to check both threads frequently.
