Good Monday morning to you! I had something different planned today but I decided to switch to an important subject….
How about a Holiday Card Swap!?!?
I have had many, many emails about – "Can we do a Holiday Card Swap" ~ now we are talking about Christmas and I must admit – I know the calendar is not even October but there are so many that are very anxious to see and get their "creative juices flowing"…so I say – LET'S DO IT!
Here is the scoop….send me a Holiday card by October 26th – (that will give you 4 weeks from today) and in turn, I will send you a beauty of a card that was made with love to you!
If you have participated before in one of my card swaps, you know that I adore to do a PARADE OF BEAUTIES on my blog – so everyone that participates, will see their card on my blog….as I adore showcsing on what YOU do!
Please know….I enjoy so much being able to see, share and shine your work and I know that everyone wins as the ideas are OVER THE TOP and it is just plain FUN!
Please put your thinking caps on and join the fun! I will each week, blog a reminder about the swap as a gentle reminder but I think that this will give everyone ample time to make a card….have fun….and then get ready to see all of the beauties!
Please send your card to me and after the magical date of October 26th, I will put them all together and send you a card in return! Because these are popular and fun, please only send me 1 card….you will love all of the ideas from others that I will proudly showcase on my blog!
I do hope that you will join the fun – it is super-de-duper to see what you come up with! I hope that you are smiling that I am offering this and I hope you will join the fun!
Here is my Address for you to send your cards to:
Susan Itell
15002 Randall Lane
Williamsport, MD 21795
p.s. – please write on the outside of the envelope Card Swap!
Sounds like fun! Hmmmm…Can I get myself in gear to get one made and mailed to you this week? Idk! The good news is that if I do manage to do that, my return card can get mailed to my U.S. address! I will be there by then! Yay!!!
Thanks for doing this, whether I make it or not!
Cyberhugs!
So much fun…love card swaps and the excitement of seeing everyone’s talent! Do you also want us to include a stamped, self-addressed envelope for the return card?
So excited to do this again this year. I was going to do the last year with you and I made my card and when I went to mail it, it was gone 🙁 I made the mistake of putting it with my other Christmas cards and my husband had taken them and put the with the ones he mails out to our family. Then I started a new job and never was able to get back into my craft room to make more. So now I have had time to start on them again. Blessings to you. Tammy Jo Tanner
Susan, This is so cool. I’m in. Now to put my thinking cap on. Thanks so much for doing this. I’m excited.
I have participated in one of your challenges, but never participated in one of your card swaps.
This will be different and fun.
I have four weeks now and should be able to do this.
Your reminders will help if I get off track.
Thanks for this opportunity!
Are there any rules like current products only or anything goes? SU only? Like Mary Ann H reminded us, include a SSAE? Oh good grief, I only read this a minute ago and I am already agonizing over what to make and will it be good enough? I have 4 weeks to agonize over this dilemma but these swaps are just so fun and I love what I get in return so I gotta do it!
Have fun with your horse group of friends and then you are going to Atlanta or something fun too? Have a fun and safe trip!
Love card swaps ! Have made some really good card swapping friends that way !! Count me in …now I have to do some “pondering” as Pooh would say !!
Have fun on your trips !
My first card swap…….can’t wait!!!!
Count me in! Actually I just finished making a holiday card for a Challenge and I’m going to send it your way. These are so fun. Thanks for doing this again!
I’ve participated in one before and it was a lot of fun, looking forward to this one?.
Sounds like a great idea. I live in the U.K. can I still take part
in the swap?
I love card swaps. And I love getting a card in return. Thank you for doing this.
