I am running late. Have had lots to contend with this past week. But I have the postcards for the newcomers & will be sending them out before the deadline. So sorry about my delay

Last 9 postcards are addressed and ready to go out in tomorrow's mail! Procrastination got the best of me. I squeak by under the wire...story of my life .
To those of you whose postcards are on their way in the morning...sorry for the delay. I hope you like them. They'll be to you soon.

Hey there Postcard Swappers . .
Hope your postcards are all in the mail . . . or on the way to being mailed.
Sounds like you had fun . . I know I did. I'm in the process of putting mine in a little album.

As I mentioned previously . . .perhaps we'll do another SUMMER POSTCARD swap in 2011 . . check back sometime in late May . . or so!

Hope the rest of your summer goes well!!
THANKS AGAIN!!

CJ, what kind of album are you putting yours in? I want to display them so I can see both sides and I'm having a hard time find anything to put them in. Ideas?

I found a little photo album at Walmart for $3.00. It holds "100 photos . . 4x6". There is a little divider in each page which prevents you from seeing both sides of the postcard. But I'm managing to get scissors in there and cut it out along the top and bottom and then cut off the sealed end so you can have a sleeve to see both sides of postcard. So far, my postcards fit just right and just snug enough so that they won't slip out the end I had to cut off.
I know it won't hold more than 50 post cards . . but I'll figure that out when I get there.
Hope that makes sense.
I didn't want to use am album that hs more than one per page . . and most of the little ones don't hold more than 24 or so. Anyway, I did find this one. Simple brown vinyl cover.

I am putting mine in 12 x 12 clear scrapbook sleeves. I put two-sided tape on the back this way I can see both sides. These sleeves are in my Farmgirl album I am putting some of my mailart and postcards, etc. in.

I have 51 postcards so far and they are in a small album. This is one of the best swaps ever and so neat to see if you can collect as many states as you can. Thanks everyone for participating.

Farmgirl friends are fun.

Wow!!!! There were 4 postcards in my mailbox today!!!! Whoo Hoo!! Don't like too many more until I have them all!! This has been so much fun my friends. Can't wait to start this up again!!
I am quite proud of these cards and getting to know a little about places my Sisters live! I was lucky enough to find 3 little albums that allows me to see both sides. I enjoy going back over them and reading the notes. Many blessings to all of you!

Ok, don't throw things at me, but can everyone who got a post card from me email me. I've lost track of where I left off and am getting them done today and I could have cried when I saw I lost my notes on this.
After, sending the family out looking everywhere we have no FL postcards in the stores near us. Crazy! So, I ordered prints of our beach pictures and that is what I'm sending. If I would have thought of that weeks ago I would have been done by now.
With Lyme disease you don't always think clearly, it takes awhile to get the messages across to yourself. lol
And, if I don't laugh about it I'd cry and that won't work so. Laugh with me and be patient, there a coming in the mail soon. Some are coming with the phots swap too.

I was almost through the first list, so if you can give me your first and last name when you email I'll know how far down on the list I got. Thanks for helping me. I like what Marie said, she usually blames loosing things on the dog or kids.lol
Me too!
