Description:
Let's have some FUN with postcards! :) For this swap, you will have 1 partner and you will send them 1 postcard with a message where you'll use at least 2 different palindromes (=word, phrase, number, or other sequence of units that may be read the same way in either direction). Challenge is to form sentences that will still have a meaning. (Sample on the swap picture above.) Postcard is sender's choice (meaning all kinds of cards are acceptable including store-bought, handmade, free, etc.). Although, it's always a nice thing to make another person happy so you might like to check your partners profile and send them postcard they would like. Don't forget to write your SB name as well as name of the swap on postcard. I'll keep this open for newbies with well filled profiles. Otherwise, minimum rating 4.95 but no one with unresolved 1s or 3s can enter. I'll check prior to assigning partners. And, yes, I will angel if needed AFTER you rate your partner with 1 and let me know about it. Questions and comments welcome - leave them below and I'll respond asap.

Great idea. But i have question: what language is acceptable? For example I know many interesting palindromes on my own language. I can make a palindrome in English. But he will not be as elegant as in Russian. This is what I thought: If palindrome is a signature to the picture, maybe it makes sense to write them in their native language?

@Yahen - I'll say it's sender's choice. However, if you decide to use palindromes in your own language, please include translation to English. :)

If you are my partner I'd love it in your native language :D! (might need a translation but still think that would be very interesting)

Oh I wrote a whole poem that was a palindrome, I'd love to share it!

I would like to join your swap because it sounds like so much fun but I was recently rated a one about 1 1/2 months ago because a partner claimed they didn't get my email link to a pinterest board when I sent out and the others rated me. I resent the link to that person and I never heard back as to whether they received the link or not they just went and rated me a one. :-( But, I know that there have to be rules so if I can't join I won't be mad just thought I'd write and see.
