Description:

A perfect opportunity to use that new machine or the new dies from Santa! (or a pre-cut die from extra swap goodies)

This postcard needs to have at least 1 die cut piece attached to the front. Subject matter and other mediums are completely up to you! Should be fast, should be fun!

  • 4"x6" handmade postcard on heavy cardstock (about cereal box weight)

  • Naked mailing (or envelope due to potential adhesion issues)

  • 1 partner

  • International is ok ($1.15 in us stamps)

Thought about this type of construction/adhesion below. Join in the conversation!

What do you use to attach heavier elements to your postcard to safely take the trip as naked mail?

I am obsessed with my krylon sticker machines and if it looks a little loose, I use a gel medium (after spray sealer) to anchor it all down. I prefer the original finish without the gel though.

I use E6000 for heavier projects,it won"t budge.

I've not used E6000 on paper. I'll have to try that! Thanks! Also, I meant Xyron sticker machine not krylon (that's paint, duh) lol

Lol! I always wondered about E6000! I just use Glossy Accents! So excited to use my larger dies to make a pretty post card! Can't wait to swap! 😀

Hi Darc! I have mine ready to go but if I get you as a partner I may have to remake something Frenchy ;)
