We will colour in and send a postcard to our partners. We will also send one "blank" colouring postcard for our partner to colour. These need to be sent together in an envelope.

So you will be sending 2 postcards to 2 people = 4 postcards. Two you colour in, and two that you don't colour in!

Are these to be store bought ones that we color, or can they be handmade.

I luv this IDEA for a swap @mellyrose89 !!! I'm in! THANK YOU for Hosting!!!

I HOPE YOU DO this AS A Monthly SERIES! ;-)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SO I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THIS SWAP ~
DO YOU WRITE ON THE BACK OF THE COLORED PC LIKE
YOU WOULD IF YOU WERE MAILING IT NAKED & THEN PUT
IT IN THE ENVELOPE... or DO YOU PUT BOTH PCs IN THE ENVIE FOR THE PARTNER TO USE...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Would you consider doing a
SEND A NAKED COLORED PC TO YOUR PARTNER type swap?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am anxious to see too what you think of Handmade Coloring PCs!
I have some that were sent to me from my Wishlist cause I wished for them! ;-)
Really pretty and i have already done one & sent it out as a RAK ;-)
Thats a good idea to make them @craftycrocheter . I think if you made them strong with some cardboard like a cereal or cracker box and glued paper down really well ;-)
Maybe the coloring sheet should be on cardstock...so it will look better ... I will have to try making one...
I Wonder how ModPodge will look on colored side...
I will have to try it and see ;-)

PS ~ I edited this and changed it from a type 2 swap to a type 3 since it is colored and that is a craft & takes time...

@craftycrocheter - You can design them yourself if you like! I would say no bigger than 5x7 :)

@anrtist I am happy to run this monthly :) I may run a naked swap too :) In regards to sending for this swap, so you colour one in and you leave one plain (uncoloured). and you put both NAKED in an envelope, so don't write on them! You can write a note on a separate piece of paper if you'd like to write a note :) I hope that clarifies everything!

I just got this info from a postal worker posting in the PF ...

Postcards up to 4" in height by 6" in height require $.35 postage. If the card is larger than those dimensions you will need $.49 postage.

That is if you are posting in the US right?

anrtist 01/28/2016 #

right USA...
INTERNATIONAL LETTER & PC IS THE SAME AMOUNT I WAS TOLD

In Australia to post a postcard overseas, if it's not a pre-paid one, it costs $2.75, which is the same for international letter too.
