This is another NICHE swap. It may not appeal to everyone, as the APP card is required to play in this swap. This is the USA version and I always do an international version. If you join both you, and by chance get the same partner, you may mail together but are obligated to make that partner 2 different cards. If you are not aware Starbucks has these free APP cards at the register or near the condiment station. Basically you can get a free song or a free game or a free book by using the code on the card. The cards are free and the apps are free. For the longest time I have been taking the cards thinking "hey that might lend itself to an art project later" These are getting harder to find as now the APPS are sent to the phone each week if you have the starbuck app on your phone. In 2013 there was an article saying they were stopping the cards all together, but that did not happen. My idea is to take the image on the APP card and make an ATC. Since you may not have been hoarding these apps cards over the last year and you may only be able to get the current app card. You will send one card to two partners. So pick up at least two cards for this swap. I am putting the sign up date 3 weeks from today so you have time to find app cards and see if you want to play. For the cost of a stamp I can mail you 6 app cards if you want to play and just cant find a card. As I said I have been collecting them for about a year. All the standard atc lingo in my swaps are the same. The stuff about size matters, quality, mailing etc. I should just do a link to that stuff. |
