Is the theme of the postcards senders choise or do they need to be profile specific?

I think it is what it is. I don't try to read more into it. I read it as your choice!

greengirl 02/25/2010 #

It's definitely your choice! Don't have to worry about your partners likes or dislikes, it's a risk--and definitely worth it!

I know some postcard swaps are really picky about NOT putting postcards in an envelope, but bits come off handmade posties when they're going through machines. So, my question is, can the postcards be sent in an envelope?

I prefer mine NAKED! ...postcards, that is...

greengirl 03/ 9/2010 #

I suppose you can send them either in an envelope or naked... it's your choice, but if you prefer to send them naked then send them naked!

I would prefer naked! I like to see what the postal system does to postcards as they're travelling through it!

lexieforever 03/14/2010 #

i would prefer naked as well

I'd prefer naked too. Like Lindsay, part of the 'art' of it, for me, is the effect of its process through the mailing system. It adds patina even if that means bits must fall off, but that's part of our responsibility, isn't it? Trying to account for that ahead of time? ;)

I received a wonderful, collaged, wooden postcard with a mermaid, shell and map today but it wasn't signed. If you sent it, please let me know! If not, hopefully I can figure it out by process of elimination as my other postcards arrive!
