POSTCARD SWAPPERS . . . sounds like you all are having great fun with this. Thanks to all of you who have sent me your wonderful postcards.
May 25, 2011: This swap is now CLOSED!!!
Mailing lists will be emailed to all swappers in the next day or so.
Be on the lookout for your list.
TOTAL SWAPPERS = 48
Don't forget mail out deadline is AUGUST 15th

Hi there Farmgirls,
Back by popular demand is the POSTCARD SWAP. We had one last year and the idea was to send ONE postcard from your state to everyone who signed up.
Here is a pic of my collection from last year! Cool, huh??
.JPG)
We will do it again, with a few tweaks to the process from last year. So, you can read about it here:
- SIGNUPS : open now, May 2nd. (only ONE signup opportunity)
CLOSING: May 25th
PLEASE: you must be able to commit to this and follow through!!! You will need to PURCHASE STAMPS and POSTCARDS (you can make them as long as they show something from your STATE or favorite VACATION SPOT).
- EMAIL ME: (Please, do NOT post here!)
~ Your MAILING ADDRESS and YOUR NAME (your 'real' name)
~ Your EMAIL ADDRESS
~ Your FORUM NAME-
HOW IT WORKS:
~ to EACH person on the list you will send ONE postcard that is
either:
- from YOUR STATE . . . OR . . .
- from your FAVORITE VACATION SPOT
- You basically have most of the summer to mail your postcards
out with the DEADLINE FOR MAILING OUT AS: AUGUST 15th- Once signups are closed I will EMAIL you the list and then you can write 'em and send 'em.[/purple]
START NOW:
- buy your stamps for POSTCARDS
- buy or make your POSTCARDS (showing your STATE or favorite VACATION SPOT)
- affix your RETURN ADDRESS
- be ready!!!
Thanks . . . should be fun! You'll make more farmgirl friends!
CJ
