Blind “Reply Envie” with Mail Art

Save two of your unused reply envelopes from your mail. The return envelopes are ones they include to return a form or a payment. They can be with or without the window. If you use a windowed reply envelope please include a sheet inside the envelope very close to the same size of the envelope so the address does not move around. On that sheet add partners address so that the full address can be seen from the outside with all your goodies behind it. You can also just cover the window. You could use a return envelope with no windows just cover the return address with your partners address. Also cover any barcodes, mailing codes or graphics with your amazing mail art! Include the name of the swap on the back of your envelope.

For this swap you will send your two partners one decorated reply envelope each containing, useful and clean, items they can use for future swaps or crafting. These items can be a variety of but not limited to: stamps, stickers, gelli print sheets (cut to fit your envelope), ephemera (tickets or cards), photos, washi tape samples 12”, ATCs or ATC blanks, zines, paper samples (cut to fit envelope) or drawings.

Since this is a blind swap Feel free to prepare your envelopes before the assignment of partners. The goal is to send each swap with one or no more than two forever stamps so don’t over fill your envelopes! Have fun!
