Summer is in full swing – while some are getting an early head start on on Christmas cards, many of us are enjoying the bright colors and nature around us. There’s so much to enjoy about this time of year. As such, I’m kicking off a Summer 2023 One-for-One Card Swap. How totally cool am I for doing such a wonderful thing?! There’s no theme to the cards in this swap – birthdays, sympathy, flowers are all great (but maybe save Holiday cards for later in the year when I host my Holiday One-for-One Swap).
One-for-One Card Swap – Summer 2023
I love to share with you, and I love when you share with me. I’m happy to announce the first One-for-One card swap of 2023! 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 – 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!
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 available products from the current Stampin’ Up! catalogs or online offerings (no retired or Sale-a-Bration items, please). Cards don’t have to be complicated to be beautiful.
- a self-addressed, stamped envelope (just fold one in half and include it with your card).
- a wad of cold, hard cash (this requirement is waived if it’s your first time participating)
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.
Please 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 Tuesday, July 11 – that’s TWO weeks away. That’s when I will sort them and then mail them back out. I will also include photos of some of the cards on my blog (giving proper credit to the creator, of course).
Who’s in? No need to sign-up – just mail me your card. Please email me if you have any questions – [email protected].

I adore your swaps! Sorry a bit late, but it’s in the mail tomorrow…
I just read about your swap!!! When will you have another one? Would be fun and I would like to join next time.
The Digital Platform Unification is confusing. I logged onto an old customer account I had, but then what? How does one know the end point? If there is a great explanation site, please let me know. Thanks. I miss the live events…
