Hi, My name is Sarah and I am 35 years old from Calgary, Canada.
I am interested in swapping postcards. I enjoy all postcards and the thought that goes behind them. My wishlist at the bottom is exactly that - a wishlist. If you don't have anything that matches that list, please don't stress. This is a fun hobby and shouldn't cause anxiety to anyone.
I'm open to direct swaps. If interested, send me a message!
I have a decent amount of over-sized shaped cards. If you're interested, let me know!
My favorite colour is green.
Here's to Happy Mail!
I am looking at collecting a postcard or two from each Province/Territory in Canada.
I'm looking for ones that say the Province or Territory name on the front of the postcard.
I still need PCs from:
*Newfoundland
*Saskatchewan
*Quebec
I am looking at collecting a postcard or two from each of the states in the USA.
I'm looking for ones that say the State name on the front of the postcard.
I still need PCs from:
*Connecticut
*Delaware
*Massachusetts
*Rhode Island
*Tennessee
*Vermont
*West Virginia
One of my favorite things to do when I'm not swapping postcards is to go on road trips and take a photo of all the town statues I see along the way! This hobby has taken me into many small towns that I normally would've never gone to and have led to many funny or adventurous stories.
If you can help me build my collection of Road Side Attractions, that would be awesome!
Some ideas are:
*Ogopogo - Kelowna, BC
*Peach - Penticton, BC
*Watering Can - Victoria, BC
*Western Boot - Edmonton, AB
*Easter Egg - Vegreville, AB
*Red Paper Clip - Kilping, SK
*Honeybee - Tisdale, SK
*Fire Hydrant - Elm Creek, MB
*Sunny the Banana - Melita, MB
*Twoonie - Campbellford, ON
*Loonie - Echo Bay, ON
*Large Chair + Side Table - La Bostonnais, QC
*Giant Squid - Glovers Harbour, NL
*Lady Potato - Grand Falls, NB
*Strawberry Man - Great Village, NS
*Lobster - Cavendish, PEI
*Mammoth - Dawson City, YK
*Inukshuk - Hay River, NWT
*Inukshuk - Rankin Inlet, NT
Again, these are just suggestions, but any town statue would be received with excitement!
Another collection I'm working on is one from Universities. This is a new interest I've grown attached to since receiving some really nice cards in swaps of Universities.
Some I am interested in getting are:
*Harvard University
*Brown University
*Berkley University
*UCLA
*Yale University
*University of Cambridge
*University of Oxford
*M.I.T
*Stanford University
*Columbia University
*Princeton University
*University of Manchester
*Cornell University
I saw this idea on someone elses profile here, but I can’t remember who and I thought it was a great idea!
Again, this is a wish list, but I thought it was a neat idea to provide themes for each month on cards I would like to receive!
Do not feel like you must send something from what is listed in each month – it’s just a suggestion and something fun and neat I wanted to try.
January – Sports, Fields, Northern Lights
February – Abstract, Town Statues, Tulips
March – Family, Mountains, Olympics
April – Butterflies, Light houses, Map cards
May – Weather (rainbows, tornado’s), Balloons, Disney
June – Sunflowers, Bridges, Bunnies
July – Oceans, Europe, Castles
August – Camels, Black & White, Parks
September – Art, University/College, Autumn
October – Cartoon, Chihuahuas, Caves
November – Christmas, Winter, Bears
December – Green, Vintage, Trains
I prefer PC's that are blank and in an envelope.
Postcards I prefer NOT to get:
*House Cats
*Cooking / Food related
*Handmade
*Ad or Free cards
I was flaked by the following people:
@mummyANDmila for 5 nice cards to 2 nice people #6
@miyuiki00 for QUICK Sticker sheet swap #51
The following people sent angel swaps to me:
@minniepic for 5 nice cards to 2 nice people #6
@owlsinathens for QUICK Sticker sheet swap #51

Sarah ~ Thank you so much for the great PCs and adorable owl stickers in the PTG WTA for September. The PCs are ones I've never seen before and the stickers will certainly be used on future mailings - they are the perfect size for postcards :-)
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!!
Hi Sarah, Thank you so much for angeling the Bucket List PC swap for me. I love the cute card and I would love to hear more about your ideas for the book! Thanks for being a great swap host and take care :)
