Spring the Sweet Spring - Postcard Swap - Postmark by Monday, March 21st

Collage by hhc

 Enough of Winter!  Who's ready for Spring?  

Hands up, everywhere! 

Poem by hhc

Just because the calendar may say it's Spring doesn't mean it LOOKS like Spring.  I get encouraged when I see flower stalks pushing up through the ground, or buds forming on the trees, and birds returning to build nests.
 
For this post card exchange, use any medium(s), colors and images that make you think of Spring.

Just looking through a flower bulbs catalog can be very encouraging!!!

Participants, create 1 - 5 cheery post cards showing your perspective of Spring.

SWAP DETAILS:
  • Participants may send in as many as five Post Cards.  (You will get back the same number you send in, each from a different artist) 
Thick, stiff, over-sized cards, cards with thick collage or cards with notched corners will require extra postage.  Check with your local postal clerk for assistance.

Mail your PC's to your swap host in an envelope, and your host will mail out the swapped PC's after the swap is processed.
  • If you're sending more than one PC, please insert waxed paper or parchment between the
  •  cards so they don't get stuck together in the
  •  envelope.  
  • Please write your return address and email address on the back of the PC so the recipient
  • can thank you.

You can find all the postal specifications (and a handy postage calculator) here:  http://postcalc.usps.gov

Monday March 21st.  Send to:
Honi C.

Hello Honi,

I'd like to participate in the swap, but I might need a few more days past March 21st to get my postcards in. Would that be okay?

Hi Sarah, Thanks for contacting me. I will make a note-to-self to watch for, wait for your art to arrive. I'm glad you can participate in the Spring group swap. If possible, could you comment here, or on the MESSAGES/COMMENTS page, or email me (see CONTACT ME tab at top of Home Page) and let me know when your art is on the way? Thanks. HAPPY ART-ING :) Honi
