For those of you who have been around a while, you will know what the deal is. For the newer folks, I'll explain...
For the last two years, someone on the forum has hosted a Christmas card exchange thread. Missy (who I dearly miss) did it the year before last and I did it last year.
The way cards are sent/received/exchanged seems to change a bit each year. The first year, Missy simply paired off forum members who wanted to participate and they exchanged addresses privately, via PM.
We did the "pairing" last year for those who only wanted to exchange with one person. However, a number of members wanted to send/receive/exchange with multiple members. So, everyone who wanted to do multiples, left a message in the thread saying how many they wanted to send or exchange.
I still have every lovely card I received from the last two years! It's a delight to send and receive the cards. Some even chose to make their own and send them.
If you would like to participate, simple let me know in the thread! All addresses are kept confidential if you choose to share via PM. You can either send them to me, or directly to your exchange partner, or to anyone else who is offering to send cards.
Do keep in mind that delivery times will vary, based on the country you're sending to. Some Asian countries seem to take the longest (up to a month) so keep that in mind when exchanging with someone in a country that has a longer delivery time.
Just like last year, I will send a card to anyone who would like one. I think I must have sent about 40 or 50 last year (I can't recall the exact number) and most were to people on this forum. Just send me your address via PM. Again, addresses are NOT shared unless specifically instructed.
I had quite a number of addresses in my inbox, but I lost them all when I took a break from being a mod (my mailbox shrunk). So, if I sent you one last year, and you'd like one this year, you'll need to give me your address again.
PS. If we could possibly sticky this thread until after Christmas (like last year) that would be awesome!
