Description:

To celebrate Canada Day, let's send each other some mail art and make our postal workers (and each other) smile :)

Decorate one or both sides of an envelope with whatever medium you prefer - markers, collage, paint, anything. Your design must be based on anything Canadalicious - maple leaves, beavers, Alex Trebek, Corner Gas, the Rockies, Bonhomme, hockey, pictures of places you've visited, the lyrics to your favourite Barenaked Ladies song, poutine, anything goes.

In your envelope, write a short, one-page ish letter about where you've lived in our awesome country, favourite things to see, favourite cities, and anything else worth mentioning. Also explain your envelope, especially if you chose something a little obscure.

You must be rated for at least 5 Type 2 swaps, and not be a sketchy person. No exceptions.

I have an envelope already decorated as a hockey theme.May I use that or you prefer us to do majority of the decorating ourselves?

@roxswapbot It should be something you worked on yourself.

Our Canadian post offices are not open on June 29, 30, or July 1! Perhaps the real sent by date should have been listed as June 28. Just saying.......

I realized that and have extended the deadline.
