Christmas/Holiday Card Swap anyone??......

as some might know by now, I´m considering the idea of holding the next card swap (several reasons included), but wanted to know previously if Pters are willing to participate.

so I thought and was convinced by Karen to make this poll.... either way it´ll give me an idea if it´s a go thing and also gives you time to prepare if you intend to join.......

I´ll let this poll run and see how it goes, if it´s a green light then I should post last week of this month...

so, the question is, are you interested??

ETA: just added it´s a Christmas/Holdiday card.....

I am but I will have to ask my parents ;)

Husky_mom, what is a card swap?

Whisk: as being under 18 you should have your parents persmission first, not just asking them , but having them talk to Karen so she knows for sure. sorry but is one of the rules

Cassies: card swap is where people sign up, let´s say 20 people, then you have to send a christmas/holiday card to each of the 20 people who signed up and in return you should get 20 cards from those people, it´s very interesting as you can get cards from all over the world...... the cards can be bought, printed or handmade whatever is best for you, they don´t have to be so elaborate just a nice thought.....

I think I'm going to pass on it this year, since I did it last year. I may change my mind though. :)

Yep thats ok.... I will try to remember to ask them later.... ;)

My vote was yes! I enjoy it very much!

I also voted yes. I love doing the card swaps:)

I'm looking forward to it. I've already been thinking of card designs for it. This year will be Dasher's offical first Christmas.

I'd like to again this year, but I don't know for sure. I will know when it comes closer. Money is tight.

I was too new to PT last year to be involved in the card swap, the gift swap, or anything. I have been WAITING for it! I voted yes.

I haven't decided yet. I've wanted to do it the last couple years but never have...we shall see.

Yes, I'm planning on it! The cards & photos last year made my house looked like I must have 100 friends (which I do on PT! ;) ).

Thanks for volunteering to organize it, Isabelle. You did a great job last year. The only down side was that YOU didn't receive most of your cards, :( I felt really bad for you. Maybe this year we can move up the deadline for International cards & hope that by beating the big holiday mail crunch, more of them will find their way across the border?

I'd LOVE to join again, but I haven' voted yet... . I am the middle of "testing a neurostilulator". It works now, but at the end of the month they will disconnect it and start an official application,which will propably come at the beginning of December...! If I join, I will surely not be able to make my own cards; but I am sure I can find lovely cards with cats on in the shops ;) :D

I would like to, but I don't know if I'll be able to this year.

I'd love to! I see I can't vote in the poll because apparently I already did...I have NO memory of that! :D

(they were big....it was dark....LOL)

I'm going to have to pass this year. Money is a bit tight. :(

I had such fun last year, that I am definitely in for this year!! Come on X-Mas!! Woohoo!!!:D

well..... as time came closer I got the "inspiration" from above (if you know what I mean ;))

but I was still unsure if it may have quorum.......(attendants ;))

soooo....... even if few join and even if I don´t receive my cards because they went flying solo :p ...... I don´t mind, I love the intention and the spirit that involves the whole situation........ so let´s do it!!

I´ll be making a thread about it later this week so everyonce can start preparing......

this one´s for you Corinna!!.......:D (well last one too, but this one is to honor her and last one was to complete her job)

I missed last years so I think I would like to join this years. I'm one that needs to be sure of my finances though so I will let you know for sure when it actually comes to signing up.

Thanks for doing this Isabelle. I've always loved doing the Christmas Card swap. It is wonderful to get so many cards from all over and telling family and friends all about them.

Of course I want to do this again.:D I've been doing this every year since I joined PT and I always look forward to it.:)

Count us in!

Long time, no post - but I would love to take part in a card exchange again this year!
Spencer is fine, we are fine, it's HOT here in San Diego, and spirits could use a lift.
So if I'm not too late, count me in. If you need help with anything, Ias, let me know - pm me!

Ah... I'm about 2 months away from being 18 over the holidays. I'll do it next year for sure if I'm in a stable place to recieve mail. (Looking at volunteer trips/ peace corps like things)
