SWAPPING FAQ
- Can I make more then 1 set of cards?
- You can make up to 2 sets for each swap. They must be different designs.
- What is the standard card size?
- A standard card size is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ (folded in half) OR 11″ x 4-1/4″ (folded). You card may vary in size (for example 6×6). However, an ATC size and tags are not acceptable substitutes.
- Where do you get the clear envelopes?
- We sell them in the catalog #102619. All swaps MUST be in a Stampin’ Up! clear envelope, ready to display upon receipt. If SU! doesn’t sell the envelope, you may not use it.
- I’m participating in another swap, can I use the same design?
- No. Swap card designs MUST be exclusive to this swap
- I’ve never done a card swap before and I’m nervous I’ll make a mistake
- See the video of a past swap below to help illustrate how it is done.
SWAPS ARE DUE to me NO LATER THAN JANUARY 31 NO EXCEPTIONS.
Any swaps received after that date will be returned unopened.
Mail them early to avoid last minute stress.
HOW TO DO RETURN SHIPPING
**IMPORTANT NOTE**
Due to changes in the post office that have caused issues with return swaps I am requiring all return swaps use USPS FLAT RATE “ONE RATE” PRIORITY SHIPPING printed online. It doesn’t matter the weight or the distance, the price is the same.
- Return postage must be in one of these two Flat Rate Envelopes from the USPS:
- Priority Flat Rate Envelopes
- Priority Flat Rate Bubble Wrap Envelopes
- DO NOT USE TYVEK PRIORITY ENVELOPE IT IS NOT A FLAT RATE
-
- You can order either of these delivered to your home free by clicking on the link OR pick them up at your local post office.
- Print postage online using the USPS Click & Ship
- Click here to print postage online
- Print the postage online and attach to the return flat rate envelope. You will automatically get tracking with this option and your mail person will pick them up at your mailbox.
- DO NOT use postage stamps – the past couple swaps have had issues with postage stamps and the return envelopes with postage stamps have been returned to me. To avoid paying postage twice, please print postage online.
- DO NOT use Tyvek Priority envelopes as they are not a flat rate and the weight for the return postage may be different which will cause you to pay for another label. PLUS flat rate envelopes are cheaper.
- DO NOT use small flat rate boxes as your return swaps may not fit in the box
- DO NOT send money / cash
- If you are participating in multiple swaps, you may mail them all in the same package.
- My address will be send with your confirmation email
- If you don’t receive the message, email me at tami@stampwithtami.com
