Description:

Write a note to your partner using a theme listed below. Write it on something special... either something you created, or you love, or you wouldn't let yourself touch until now. (explain what you like about it to your partner, so she also can appreciate its awesomeness!)

Include with your note one special piece of stationery for your partner. It can be the same type you used, or something different. This will be...
* a letterset (envie and paper), notecard, or postcard you WANT to use but won't let yourself. OR
* a letterset, notecard, or postcard you really like. OR
* a letterset, notecard , or postcard you made (upcycled or created)

It is sender's choice. This swap should require very minimal postage, probably just first class postage for a letter.

Also, in the comments section below, list several themes you might enjoy writing on (or receiving a letter about). Base your letter on one or more of these themes, must be a 'letter', not a 'note'. (no minimum length, but two or three sentences is NOT enough.)

I just realized that if I send my partner a fold-and-mail type piece of stationery, I might have to send it in a separate envelope. (I'm not sure I can fit one inside another without scrunching the inner one.)

I hope that's all right!

Yes, that's fine!
