Postcard Swap

If you buy the sample "kit", I'd be interested in hearing how the Aurora art paper acts with FP ink. The paper sounds good, but it has that photo coating...

My mailbox has been unusually happy since I found FPN.

 

Today I received great cards from:

 

Suggie

Hookem11

Steveh6883

 

And tomorrow I am sending off ten postcards. And since I like surprises I am not telling who they are to. :roflmho:

Hoping you have a Happy Mail Day!

I almost forgot to thank for these cards that arrived last week.

 

Vieuxcarre - was the card from Fort Bayou from you?

Jakespeed - I love waterfalls

PaulK - vintage card of US Capitol with great colors

 

Thanks!

Hoping you have a Happy Mail Day!

Hi CraigR, jleeper & Tweel,

 

Sounds to me like there should be some appropriate paper available from Red River that will suit our needs.

 

At the prices they quote for 8 1/2 x 11" sheets, assuming 4 cards per page, the per card price is less than 9 or 10 cents, which is what I'm looking for. B)

 

So, please keep me/us in the loop when you find out about samples.

 

Thanks!

Friends,

My apologies, as I have a stack of postcards and correspondence awaiting replies that have been delayed. Our college just became a University officially as of Thursday, and the first day students are back is this week - so the past month has been insane as we scramble to complete major projects and get everything ready. I took the weekend off to try and regain some sanity - a list of cards received will follow so senders know they did arrive, with replies to them occurring shortly after that as time permits. I'm not dead yet (I can dance and I can sing.....) I've just been critically short of time.

 

Thanks for your patience.

 

P.S. Special points for anyone who can identify the musical referred to above B)

Totally.

 

(Now if only we had an emoticon to spell that out in cheerleaders' underwear...)

(I realize that may be very misunderstood by anyone who hasn't seen Spamalot.)

Received my first postcard as a member of this forum.

Thanks Jazztonight. The view from your deck is beautiful.

Oakland sounds delightful to me . . . especially in January :D
