MAILING NOTE: Originally, I wanted the postcard mailed naked to save on postage. But because they are watercolors, the postcard may be destroyed if it gets wet. Sender's choice, to mail naked, in a plastic sleeve or an envelope. See note below: Dorland's Wax.

Please attach your card to backing to mail. Think: cereal box or similar cardboard thickness.

Recap:

• Sender's choice for which colors and words to include

• Create one 4 x 6 watercolor postcard

• For this postcard, include a general summer greeting

• Sign the back of your postcard

• Send on time

All skill levels encouraged

Newbies and international friends welcome!

DORLAND'S WAX

• New product sold in a jar. Apply to your watercolor postcard, let cure for 48 hours and mail it away. I tried it on my last postcard, it sealed nicely. Only purchase the small jar, a little goes a long way.

• This product is only a suggestion.

• Thanks Lisa for suggesting Dorland's Wax!

Extras not necessary. Please rate a 5 if you receive a watercolor postcard which meets swap requirements. As usual hearts are up to you.

I will angel if necessary.

Thanks for taking a look at this swap! Have a great day.
