Number of people in swap:	43
Location:	Other
Type:	None
Last day to signup/drop:	September 17, 2007
Date items must be sent by:	September 24, 2007
Number of swap partners:	20
Description:
Your mailbox is going to explode when you receive 20 postcards from your partners! Likewise, you'll send out 20 yourself! Due to the quantity of cards, flakers must be avoided so a min. rating of 4.5 is required. Postcards are to be purchased rather than handmade and are to be mailed. (Never understood sending a post card in an envelope!?!?) Other than that, the topic can be anything you choose but read your partners profile to send a specialized card to cater to their likes for a heart! Tell a little about yourself or why you chose that particular card. 20 partners get 1 card each = 20 cards!

must be store bought right?

i'm in!

user9246 08/26/2007 #

Yes, store bought cards, not handmade. And cards aren't required to cater to the partners profile but you can to try for hearts but cards can be on any topic.

cool, there are almost 20 of us already

user9246 08/31/2007 #

sorry. 20 cards is a lot. need a min 4.5 but go ahead and join and hopefully your ratings will come in before the start.

Yeah, today's the day!! Can't wait to get my partners for this one! :D

PostMuse 09/17/2007 #

I'm actually goofily excited to get partners on this one. I have gazillions of postcards and love trying to match them to profiles.

PostMuse 09/17/2007 #

Oh... and because of of the postcard exchange groups I belong to, 20 postcards a day is not at all odd. The postal staff where I have my P.O.Box know my box number by heart, and always comment on the number of postcards I receive. Sometimes they even comment on specific postcards, which I find a bit odd, but it still thrills me that I am somewhat famous, even if only within that tiny group of people :-)

i'm mailing 19 to the states and just one here in canada...lol...should be an exciting swap :)

Susan 09/18/2007 #

wow! this was a recordbreaking swap for me! definitely the most partners! and even so I have every PC ready to send within 24 hours of receiving my patners! I read every profile and did my best to send something everyone might like!

TeraBACat 09/19/2007 #

Wow that was a lot of profiles to read and a lot of postcards to write! They are all in the mail! I had 1 to Canada, 1 to France, & 18 here in the USA. I also had to send to my mother - LOL! I did leave a postcard for her this morning, however I did not send it through the mail :)

dandelion 09/20/2007 #

Mine are in the mail! Thanks for a fun and challenging swap, Marty! Oh, and thanks for the postcard, too! Yours is the first I've received for so far!! :D

dandelion 09/20/2007 #

Opps, thanks for the postcard Marty but it was for another swap, I see that now! :D

PostMuse 09/21/2007 #

I had a blast with this swap. I think I was able to match postcards to all my partners' profiles, except 1, whose profile is a bit thin on details. Felt good to dig into my stash and pull out cards that have been longing for just the right home :-)

stummicakes 09/21/2007 #

I got 3 today already! good work everyone!

Suzanne 09/22/2007 #

Ok. I didn't match postcards to profiles, because I don't have a large pile of postcards. Today, Jessie-messie-bo-bessie, peasporridgehot, Jewelzy Bug, scowlette, chai~tea, simply sarah, PostMuse, Karenay, stummi cakes, ncpelican, Jean-Mimi, sheshallbe, RoBeastRo, Justine, Christina, Road Runner, domino, vivaladiane, Amypie, and **erica e ** got art cards.

Wow. It was quite a task, and I loved it!

If anyone needs to be rated from me, please let me know. I think I got who ever sent me postcards for this swap, but however, if I miss you let me know. I am on so many postcard swaps, I want to make sure everyone is accounted for!
