Description:

The goal for this swap is to gain a new pen pal! :)

Here's what you need to know:

This is a PROFILE-BASED swap.

One stamp (46 cents) challenge, but no more than two stamps.

Goal is to gain a new pen pal. You will have one partner.

Review your partner's profile.

In your letter you should introduce yourself, compare your interests, and write whatever else you'd like. Please decorate your letter. Also please decorate your envelope that you send your letter in.

Your letter should be a 5x7 page or 8.5x11 page and at least one page. Hand-written or typed is fine (sender's choice).

The twist is to add one or two profile surprises. Read your partner's profile. If they don't like tea or postcards, please do NOT send those items.

Keep in mind about rigid mail, you may need to write "do not bend" on the envelope which increases the postage.

If you have any questions please message me or leave comments on this swap. I will try to check the swap page everyday to see if there are questions.

There is an International version of this swap -- if you are not in the USA or its territories, please join the international version of this swap!

If you have received a decorated letter (at least one page 5x7 or 8.5x11) with a decorated envelope along with one or two profile surprises you should just rate your partner with a 5. If you are absolutely thrilled with the result than by all means give a heart! :)

edit Everyone, I edited the swap so the deadline would be a bit longer, so the deadline is May 8. But of course you can send your items well before that date. Hope that is still ok!
