Join Us for a Spring One-for-One Swap

Spring One-for-One Card Swap, hosted by Brian KingI love to share with you, and I love when you share with me.  Yippee Doodle Dee!  I’m happy to announce the first One-for-One card swap of 2016!  If you have never participated in one of my card swaps before, now’s your chance.  You don’t have to make 20 cards or 10 cards or even 5 cards.  You just make one card and mail it to me with a self-addressed, stamped envelope.  In return, you’ll soon receive another card in the mail – and it will likely come from someone you don’t know.  How fun is that?!  I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Here’s how it works:

You mail the following to me:

  • a handmade card (a standard 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ card) designed by YOU.  Please make every effort to use products from the current Stampin’ Up! catalogs.
  • a self-addressed, stamped envelope (just fold one in half and include it with your card).
  • a wad of cold, hard cash (not required)

Please don’t write on the inside of your card so that the recipient can use it (if they choose to), but feel free to stamp your name on the back.  I will gather the cards I receive and will mix them up and mail them out so that everyone who sends me a card will receive a card in return.  Oh, glorious day!

I must limit participation to one card per person and (sadly) to folks in the US address – I’ve tried to include other countries in the past, but the mail took too long to get here and get back to the participants.  Sorry – I don’t like for people to be disappointed – so thanks for understanding.

Mail your card and stamped, return envelope to:

Brian King

1758 Colt Drive

Atlanta, GA 30341

Please mail them as soon as you can – but make sure they arrive by Friday, April 22 – that’s a little more than TWO weeks away.   That’s when I will sort them and then mail them out. I will also include photos of some of the cards on my blog (giving proper credit to the creator, of course).

If you want to check out the swaps we shared during last year’s Spring One-for-One Swap, you can see them here:

And take a look at all the comments these posts receive – you’ll receive such great feedback for sharing your card.  🙂

Who’s in? Email me if you have any questions – [email protected].  If you have participated in the swap in the past, please leave a comment on this post to let others know how much fun you had with it.  🙂

Thanks for stopping by today!

    Word to the Wise: give lots of mailing time. For some reason, 7 days in transit (from CA) has not been ample time to make the deadline. ?

  19. I’m in…any theme?

  26. I sent my card, can’t wait to see what comes in the mail/.

  27. Sign me up! However I made my card without looking at the instructions! (typical Jayne). Made mine 5×7. I may do it again but will have to cut out a bunch of the embossing…..OR I may do a different one… Looks like fun!
