SWAP DETAILS:

• You may send in as many as five Post Cards.  (You will get back the same number you send, each from a different artist,) 

Mail your PCs to your host in an envelope, and your host will mail out the swapped PCs 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.  

• Enclose sufficient postage for each PC you send in, also loose self-address labels for your swap partner's art to be sent to you.

• Please write your return address or email address on the back of the PC so the recipient can thank you.
