  • Make a Christmas card any medium and in any style that you choose.
  • This is for swappers of all abilities, but your artwork should be made with your best effort.
  • The crafting period and signup period for this swap are the same - 11/5 - 11/26.
  • Partner information will be sent to each participant on 11/27/2022.
  • You will have until the end of the day on 12/2/2022 to get your cards into the mail.
  • Since this is a paper swap, you must be willing to ship Internationally. For US participants, a global stamp is $1.65. You don’t have to use an actual global stamp, you can use domestic stamps that add up to $1.65
  • Tracking information for your envelope is not required, but if your card is lost in transit, you must agree to resend.

Oh I really wanted to do this. Hopefully, I feel better soon so I can. I love Holiday Mail!

Just checking to make sure I understand…… is this the one where we make 3 or 6 cards?
I didn’t see it specified above, but may have overlooked it with my fuzzy brain lately :crazy_face:
Anyway, I hope to get a card/cards made next week to be ready!

Ooh! I have supplies purchased in anticipation for this one! So excited to make some cute cards!

Hmm… According to the info about holiday mail I’d need to send international mail on the 27th at the latest in order to have them delivered in time. I do have that day off so it might work… Oh, within Europe is the 4th.

I’m very interested but we are planning to move in December so I’m still thinking. I’d like to join the zoom though.

Yay! Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the tag! I am busy Saturday, but if its Sunday i will join!

I don’t know why you’re still thinking, but if it’s because of the address situation, maybe for this one time we could send the cards to your son who lives close to your new house? If you’re not in a position to join the swap I’d totally understand it of course. Moving is very stressful.

I have the beginnings of an idea, but I need to experiment with it. Whether it will turn out anything swap-quality – or any quality – is TBD.

I’m going to sign up! I am very sick at the moment but will get in my Q in the next week!

Wish I could do the zoom. My work schedule is nuts right now.

The people buying our house want it a week earlier than we had planned to move, using our sons address is a good idea.
