Description:
I recieved a ' greetting card' from in one of my swaps today, that gave me this idea. Every time I send out a swap I always include somekind of a greeting card, witch states who the swap is from and the name of the swap. When I send one of these I always try to make them a bit special because I believe that it makes the swap a bit more personal;o) So for a while I have been planing to make a lot of ready made ' greeting cards' to fill out, so that I didnt have to make a new one every time. But we all know that making something in multible numbers always gets very boring, so I thought to my self - wouldnt it be great to have a swap where we could make these ' greeting cards' and send to each others...So here it is: the Swap-bot 'greeting card' swap! We will have 3 partners and we will make 5 greeting cards for each partner. The 5 greeting cards can be exactly alike - its up to you. So a total of 15 'greeting cards' to 3 different partners. Size: maby half size of a normal postcard (just no bigger than a normal postcard) Design: Up to you! Its senders choice. They can be made interely with a printer or by scraping - you imagination sets the limit! Text: Again it is senders choise, but the cards MUST contain this: Name (and user name) of the swapper RECEIVING the cards and a place where the RECEIVER of the swap can write the name of the swap he/she are sending the card with. EX: This could be on the card my partners should send to me: ''You received a swap from Heidi Johansen (79hejo) Name of swap: Thanks in advance for rating me! Enjoy;o)) '' Any questions please write me! You must have completed 5 swaps and have no recent unexplaned 3s or 1s. I will ban if I believe there will be flakers and will angel if nessersary. Have Fun!

Great Idea, I have had "business cards" made up for myself but I like the idea of these hand made/computer made cards. Great idea!

Hi Heidi! I'm a newbie in the UK. I have completed 5 swaps, posted everything on time but nobody has rated me yet. Is that normal? I love making greeting cards so this is a great swap for me.

Hi Beverly. I can see that your swaps must have been sent out very resently and I have also experiences some very long delivery times, so I believe that it is perfectly normal;o) If you do get any 3s or 1s I will get back to you. Happy to have you in the swap;o)

I had just recently been thinking of doing something like this! This is going to be fun. Can't wait to see everyone's fabulous cards :D

I was just thinking of making myself a 'swap card' when I read this. I assume as you say greeting card, we must print those out on a cardstock right, not a lighter paper right?

Since this is also could be printed out, more than 3 partners can have specialized swap card made by me :) So all of participants who wants them can drop me a message. :D

Hi Shafarina. They dont have to be printed out on Cardstock, but I guess it makes them a bit nicere. But it is basicly senders choise..If you do print out on light paper, you are more then welcome to send more then 5 ps - always nice to get more, since we all use them pretty fast;o)) I had another question about the cards if they have to be folded or be sent with envelopes, but again it is up to you. I am making mine open:o)) just write if there are any questions! have fun;o))
