Extreme Postcard Junkie

Oh now, see, you scared me so bad with that PMS thing, I hadta join... and of COURSE I don't dare not send! eek! eeeek!! (insert much running around with hands in the air here)

Now... to think of what to PUT on 10 different postcards... oh my. That will be the challenge! O:) I can't send a BLANK one! hrmf.

(wanders off to ponder this)

Is this international?

To confirm: if it's homemade, it'd post as long as it's 4x6 inches? Anyways 10 is cool! It's not extreme, more people=more fun! :)

we send blank postcards? or message to the receiver can be written on the postcards?

cindy: yep, international as said in the description :)

musicalif3: yep! absolutely. :)

cheryl: you can write on it whatever you want. i'm just saying if you don't want to, you don't have to... just make sure your username and the swap is on there at the VERY least. ;)

Thanx cooan, just to double confirm, don't want my ugly writings spoil the beauty of the postcard...lol... I'm IN!

cooan: thanks! I just bought myself a pack of semi-gloss photo paper that's thicker than normal... rubs hands I'm on this one!

I guess we are all junkies!

this is just a request so you dont have to of course but anyone who gets me id prefer handmade postcards as im trying to build my collection right now (:

Hi! I think this is too cool! Anyone heard of www.postcrossing.com It's neat. You send postcards and receive postcards. It's been lots of fun! I will send 10! I hope to get 10!

cooan: 66 participants! And you thought no one would go for 10 PCs! You go girl! lol

I am totally shocked... I seriously thought it would be too much mail for most people! I am glad there are so many junkies ;D

I've been working on postcards, and I have enough to complete this swap (and another I'm in... 15 cards in all!). I'm jazzed to see what will come in the mail from everybody else! Carmen

i would love to join if there was one for non-homemade cards.

sugarbooger: i think a majority of people send non-homemade... i know i do! i receive very, very few homemade postcards in any of the swaps i'm in. :)

postcards can have anything on the front?

yup, anything you so desire

wow! over 100 people! and here i thought i wouldn't even get the 10 required!

yes, lots of folks, that is good, more variety

its a whopper alright

And there I was just yesterday thinking "I sure do have a lot of postcards stashed for a rainy day..."

went shopping today and picked up about half, hmmmm where to get the rest...

Wow! 1130 (at last look) postcards traveling worldwide from just this swap alone.

postmuse: holy crap... i never thought of it that way

Okay...my 10 are ready..this is cool

haha! I just bought some postcards today, thinking that I would be able to use them for one of the swaps! Swwweeet! Can't wait to use them!

Hehe, let's go guys!

Wow...I wrote and wrote and wrote and now they are in the mail. Time for my 4th cup of coffee.

ok sorry in advance mine are going to be handmade is there something wrong with that?

I love handmade. Just couldn't get myself together to make 10 postcards. The swaps description indicates that handmade is fine.

Mine are ready and will be sent out Saturday afternoon!

mine are allll gone!

nothing wrong with handmade postcards :) swap description says that's just fine!

Just took all of mine to the P.O. Yay!

Mine are going out today!

My cards are in the mailbox today! AM

I went a little nuts at Hobby Lobby today and decided to try my hand at making my own postcards. (I've never actually tried making anything creative myself before!) I'll be mailing them out on Monday. I hope they don't look too goofy! bites lip

Postcards on their way!

Sent them yesterday. :)

Mine are gone! :)

On Monday I'll mail cards to: in luv with stars, mcall, Jennifer Mason, angellise97, beckra, Jellybaby, Laura, Puchita, anele, 2ndStar. I hope you all enjoy these! Carmen

working on mine... i only have two more left to make ... hope everyone likes them (: and please be sure to rate me nothing hurts more then putting hard work into my cards then not getting rated because the person doesnt want a handmade postcard or whatever ): .......

I love handmade postcards!!! I actually prefer them to store bought :)

all mine are in the box and will post tomorrow :-)

I dropped all of mine in the mailbox today.

I just got all my postcards filled out tonight and will be dropping them in the mail tomorrow!! =) I can't wait to see all the cool postcards I get!!! I will leave great feedback and hearts as I get all mine in the mail, so I hope my swap partners will do the same for me <3

I dropped mine in the mail yesterday so they should be going out today!

WHEW. I got all mine out! Now i have to START my other 10 HANDMADE postcards swap....eesh. i think someone is over her head and loving it!

Mine are on the way

Mine are on their way

I recieved another postcard in the mail today! That's two so far already!! Thanks to JustMeSKJ and ddmaree so far!!! ;)

Kudos to the people who took the time to handmake their cards! Unfortunately, I couldn't this time.

Trust me, no one would have wanted a handmade postcard by me, it would probably have been deformed! LOL Paper crafts and drawing and such are not my strong suit ;)

Thanks to ozrob and yooperhill! I got both of yours today! :) 2/10

I received a great card from Artful Amy yesterday. Thanks for sharing a glimpse into that sweet town! Carmen

I have just sent to Judith, cranial bleeding, ddmaree, Julia, DixieWitch, Mokona, Jacqueline,Kelli in Tasmania, JustMeSKJ PisceanMama.

Looking forward to getting my cards.

I got cards from Jabberwocky Princess and Cooan today. Thanks for the great cards! Carmen

A great card from Neonmarshmallow came today. Did you know there are 293 ways to make change from a dollar? Neither did I! Thanks for the whimsy that brightened my day! Carmen

~ XxInternalchaos ~ Nicole Introvert ~ Tara in colorado ~ I received your cards today! Thank you!

I also received a postcard from someone in Oklahoma of The Queen but they didn't write anything on the card so I don't know who they are. If whoever sent it would let me know I'll give you a rating! :)

I received a great card from NCPelican today. Thanks! Carmen

Mine are on their way all over the globe!! Let me know when you get them!

Hi all,
The cards are in the mail for: Jewelzy Bug, Mrs. M.C., Gypsy Song, Penny Arcade, Lola Lane, carmen, DarkMutinousShannon, The Lisa Beast, saalis, Sezouli

Whoooa, had to look back at the description when I saw how many comments about handmade cards. My regular old everyday cards are heading to the post tomorrow: 3 to USA 1 to Canada (home for me) 3 to Oz 1 to Malaysia 1 to Singapore and 1 to Germany! How cool is that! Thanks for the swap.

Tokyo Cowboy sent me the most lovely PC - will post a pic later (off on holidays - yay!).

fivegallonbucket sent me a great PC with a recipe on the back - very thoughful! Thx!

Mine hit the Post Office yesterday.

A number of the 1's/3's/complaints I have gotten are that my post office apparently is slow or prone to losing postcards- please PM/Email me before panicing. I can always resend a postcard with no big drama... just... no more drama over them being 'late' or not arriving, OK?

They're in the mail NOW! Let me know if they don't arrive, and we can FIX it, instead of harbouring problems around it, OK?

Also, my forgiveness to those who recieve the 'naked mole rat' cards. Hint: NEVER let a 9 year old help you pick out postcards. ;)

I received a neat card of a man (fully clothed in suit and hat) in the shower. Strange, but fun! Thanks for swapping! Carmen

Thanks to the three who sent the cards I just received! Lots of variety showing up in my mailbox, from sweet birds to slightly psychedelic looking tourist cards. Love 'em.

Cheryl, Ellen, babysingsing, just wondering if your cards have got to you yet

I received a nice card of Nashville from Heather today. Thanks for swapping! Carmen Kofoed

I should have looked a little deeper in the pile - I also got a nice card (and a great note) from YS. Thanks!

Carmen

~ christina ~ Thank you, received your card today!

Sorry all. I sent my postcards on July 13, but due to computer problems have not been able to get online untill today, Aug. 3. All of my partners should have gotten their cards long before now. Now that my computer is fixed I shall be online to take care of business. Janet

~ Basilika ~ I got your very cool postcard today! Thank you!

I have pmd 3 of my partners from whom I have not yet received PCs.

My Friend I am 45 years old, married and have three daughters. I am collector of postcards, bills, coins. I have stamps to redeem for cards and notes.
