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 2024! 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!
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 2024 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?). We want to see all the new products you are working with from the 2024 Annual Catalog and recent launch of Online Exclusives. Yay!
One-for-One Card Swap – Summer 2024
Are you excited?! I know you are! Here’s how this works…
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 Friday, August 9 – that gives you a little more than three weeks to plan your masterpiece. When they are all received, 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].

Hello Brian: I have been participating in your card swaps since the very first one so I’m very happy you are having one again this year.
I’m going to start planning and creating a card to join the fun.
Thank you.
