I agree. I usually set up partners the next day. It’s too complicated in the evening. Plus this is a special swap not dependent on Qs.

@gozer It’s so lovely you care for the outdoor babies as well. Those heated cat houses can be :money_bag:

I didn’t end up making it in time for signups, but will be creepin’ the gallery! :heart:

Finally had a chance to take a look at last year’s gallery. So, just to make sure, it’s ok to make 6 almost identical cards, right? I signed up for 6 partners, and I can create a card that is the same or similar to send to all 6 of them.

It’s up to you. Identical or a variety. You decide!

Oh my goodness, that was so many PMs to send. LOL! All partners are sent out. Let me know if there is an issue.

Go have fun!!!

Thank goodness for that, because my cards are definitely siblings. :sweat_smile:

Excited for partners; it’s my first time swapping with HeroicHatchling! (No shade to my repeat partners geekgirl and AudiobookLover, of course :laughing:.)

So excited! Looking forward to swapping with both new and old swap partners! I mailed out my cards today. :grin:

YEY! I think that this is my first swap with all my partners! That’s what happens when you’re a very infrequent swapper, I guess. I do think I have sent/received other things from someone on my list, though.

Found this thread just in time to sign up, so I am just starting the planning stages. I can’t believe some already sent out. I guess when they don’t have to be tailored made for the partners, it’s a great easy swap to start before the sign-up deadline.

Hoo boy! For some reason, writing the notes was the hardest part for me! My envelopes are stuffed and addressed! I will take them to the PO on Monday just to make sure I have enough postage on them. EEP!

Sent mine this afternoon, did not realize there was a new process of declaring and such, and all bubble mailers to USA are now deemed small packet, no longer considered letters even if they fit the slots.

I have my cards finished and 3 of my 6 smalls complete! I’m hoping to mail Wednesday as I don’t think Dallas will be driveable until then with all the ice.

I’m so excited for the gallery. It wasn’t in the cards for me to join this time, but I’ll enjoy your creations.

I have all my cards and extra smalls completed. I just have to finish writing notes in 2 out of the 3 cards (1 already done), and then I will mail later in the week, because I’m only leaving my house if I absolutely have to… It’s -36C out there. Turns out after -20C, F & C are about the same. Regardless, it’s cold!!!

Stay safe and warm, everyone!

The weather is crazy! We have NO SNOW! I’m literally on the side of a mountain range in the Rocky Mountains in January. I’m sad and scared about it.

That just doesn’t seem right…
