Brighten My Week Note Card January #1

There is a lot of darkness in the world right now, but lets put some light out there. We all could use a little fun in the mailbox am I right?

For this swap, send your partner a store bought or nicely handmade (greeting card style) note card with a happy message for the week. Message should be a minimum of 3 sentences long. It can be an inspirational quote, short story, your plans for the week or anything you have to say that might bring a smile to your new friend's face.

Include one small, flat surprise for them. You can check profiles for ideas, but this is not a profile based swap so don't rate down if you don't like your surprise. It can be a postcard, stickers, washi or whatever. You can easily keep it under an ounce so you can use just a stamp for these. You can send more to your partner, but keep in mind to have correct postage. Paying postage due is not really a bright happy way to start your week.

I will keep doing these once a week as long as people are enjoying them. Must have a filled out profile and 10 rated swaps. Last time, we ended because of increasing drama. No drama--save it for your mama. I reserve the right to ban for drama or high number of 3s and 1s. As a rule of thumb if you have a double digit number of 3s+1s is an automatic ban and I also review each one case by case.

Partners will be assigned between 8:30am-12:00pm CST (6:30am-10am Swap-Bot time) on the morning following the sign up deadline as participants have until 11:59pm on the deadline to sign up.
