Description:

So the other day recycling my cardboard, it came to me with making cards all the time that you glue in clear vellum for peek-a-boo windows. For inserting pictures, confetti and so on.

please note that this is US and Canada only with the postal rates gone up. If you want to host one similar for the overseas members please do

so for this swap you will look for a packaging with those cut out windows, either with or without the plastic insert (Example - like a pasta box or dog bisquits)

You can be specific but not required by your partners profile.

You will have one partner and one project - sender choice - to send:

postcard - naked (for the receiver to use for a future post card swap. so don't write anything on it. send in a envie to the reciever. If you want to include another postcard with information on how you made it feel free)

card - naked inside - with matching envie (for the receiver to use for sending out to someone. So leave blank inside - can include a vellum or sticker quote to match the theme. An envie for them to send out the card.)

photo or writing journal (for the receiver to use)

picture frame **(keep to a 4x6 or 5 x 7 size cut out area but, smaller is okay since you are using a recyle package front)***

this is one of four ideas - feel creative but take yourself outside the box.

Must be in good standing at least a 4.9 and no 1's or 3's in the last 2 months without reason - will look at comments from other swaps you had if you have them.

if you have questions since i really do not look at the comment area unless i direct you to send all questions to @sapphirestitching

Can you clarify what we're supposed to send? It says postcard, but then it says naked INSIDE. It also says naked, but then with matching envie. Those are contraditions. EIther you send the card naked or in an envie. And either it is a postcard or it has an inside (unless by inside you mean that window and you're saying to leave it empty?).

FYI...the postal rate for US to Canada is the same as US to any country now ($1.10 for postcard or 1 oz letter)

I'm sorry, but I don't understand this swap at all! :( I think I need to find an envelope or box with a see-through part and put in one of the four things listed above? Is that even remotely correct?

you find a box like a noodle box has plastic window in it show the noodles inside. take that front and create one of the four. turn it into a card, journal, photo album or post card.
