HMPC: That's SEW cool!

Yep, by hand or by machine, SEW somewhere on your postcard!

Of course your whole card doesn't need to be sewn :) You could sew an element to your card, sew a border, embroider, whip stitch the edge of an element to add to your card. Hand sew an outline, get fancy with different machine or hand stitches, etc.

The rest of your card can be collaged, painted, sketched, doodled, an enhanced-by-hand photo, diecut parts, all of the above.

On the back, be sure to write the swap name and your SB name.

The usuals:

• 4"x6" handmade postcard on heavy cardstock (think: about cereal box weight) Larger is ok if that works better for you.

• Naked mailing - I'd like to keep it inexpensive but if you are afraid to send your particular card on it's own, an envelope is ok.

• International is ok ($1.15 in us stamps till the 26th and then $1.20)
