Postcard Swap and a little Thanksgiving goodies

Hi all, it was June that we had the last swap (ATC and vintage package) at City Crafter, I am so glad that everyone had fun, how about another one?

Since City Crafter Challenge Blog this week's theme is to make a POSTCARD why not we have a little POSTCARD swap.
Thanksgiving is coming, I thought it would be nice to include a little Thanksgiving Goodies with the swap as well, what do you think?

We are a little happy family here at CCCB, every time we do a swap, I never have complains, in fact, most of the crafters who joined our swap are the nicest people, they always felt that they did not "give" enough after receiving the goodies from their swap partner, I just want to remind everyone, that we are happy that we can make friend through crafting and swapping, the little extra gift is just for fun, we give what we can, and we received with a thankful heart, so do not feel bad, the reason for doing these swaps is to have fun and to share, so no one should feel bad ok!

Just in case you email and ask what to send besides the postcard, just some suggestion

Any crafting supplies for the fall, it can be ribbons in orange and brown colors to vintage images with fall theme
Thanksgiving recipes
Thanksgiving home decor items
Even home-baked cookies works (just make sure it is safe to send in case you get a overseas partner)

I will just leave it to your creativity to decide, as long as it fits the Thanksgiving (or Fall) theme, it is ok to send anything to your swap partner, just don't forget the postcard you make, LOL!

ok, here we go.........

Step 1 - sign up for the swap by sending an email to citycrafterpartyblog@gmail.com

We will wait a week for the package to arrive, I will have the linking system up here at the party blog as early as Mid November for you to link up your POSTCARD plus Happy Thanksgiving Goodies


It is stronger recommended that you make a blog post after you received the postcard and happy mail from your partner, then link it up here so everyone can go around and share your joy, this way, your partner also know that you've received the package, if you think you can do all that, and it all sound fun to you, do join us by sending an email to citycrafterpartyblog@gmail.com

ATC and Vintage package swap ~ show off your goodies!!!

Hi all, you should be getting the mailing info for your swap partner by now. You can start getting the Vintage package ready with your ATC, and send it out to your partner any time from now, last day to do is is July 9th, but I would encourage you do it sooner especially if your partner is from a different country, it takes longer for overseas shipping.

Once you received your ATC and Vintage Package, you can link it up here to show off your goodies, and you could also hop around to see all the fun things from others, stop by, leave comments, make new friends, that is what the swap is all about isn't it? 
Have Fun everyone!!!!!


You may want to leave your comment here for any idea and suggestion for our future swap! Thanks for joining us, I hope you have fun and make some new friends along the way!!!!

Die Cut Swap & a little Holiday Gift 



***Note - Inlinkz decided to charge user a fee for using their service, I am trying out Mr. Linky and see how it works. Please bear with me if there is any problem.

Die Cut Swap and a Little Holiday Gift ~ part 2

Hey Crafters, got the info of your swap partner by now? So start "talking" to each other, find out what diecut your partner has, and tell her what you have, once you know what to "cut" for your partner, send them out with a little surprise holiday gift, it can be anything, papers stack, embellishments, christmas ornaments, a book, or even cookies, anything that you would love to receive or give, remember, this part of the swap is a surprise!!! 

One thing to remember, this is a happy place for crafters to make friends, have fun, so do what you can, no one is going to feel bad that they send too little to their partner, no one is going to complain that they receive too little from their partner, Ok?

 I am going to give you some time to communicate with each other, do the "cutting" work, and then send it out, I will have Inlinkz here at the end of November, once you received your happy package, link them up here, visit others, stop by to say hello, happy swapping everyone!!!


Spellbinders, Sizzix, Cuttlebug, which one do you have?
