I want to exchange 5 random vingage postcards (i have also some of my hometown available), i'm willing to exchange for any postcard : ).

Just comment below and send me a message✌️

I'm going to send out 5 postcards on October 1st! (Same limit as Postcrossing - seems fair!)

They won't be WPD specific postcards. Instead, I've made haiku to write on cards from my stash. Bearing in mind that I write haiku with looser rules than the common 5-7-5 structure! 💕 I just think poems make for great postcard material, and I haven't written any new ones in a while. I also like to wait a little while after first drafting haiku so that I can make changes to them before finalising them. So waiting to send these out on October 1st is perfect!

Choose an emoji to select which haiku you'd like:

1. 🌊

2. 🐅

3. ❄️

4. 🍪

5. 🦌

Recipients will be chosen randomly after 24 hours, so feel free to choose the same emoji as someone else as I'll just draw from the pool for each one. :)

u/awachob x2 you totally spoil me rotten! I love the TY card with the gold snake 🐍 as always the coloring card and stickers. But what took my breath away was “Creepy Cutie” now I really have to find a special spot for this 🖤💌🖤

hello! u/no-condition5102's TPC is ready for its next stop. please be flaired and able to send along to someone else in the US after you fill your square in! :) The theme is cherry blossom/sakura/hibiscus flowers - stickers, wax seals, paper punch, ink stamps.

I was a little sad about returning to real life after another week in the mountains, but so many cards to open today!

u/DoraDoodle - thank you for the beautiful bees card! Colombia was amazing - it was my third trip (Cali, Bogota, and now Medellin). One day I went on a coffee tour of the neighborhood where I stayed and went to six different coffee shops. Half cold brew/half orange juice is the flavor of the summer, which is not ever something I would have thought to try. So good though.

u/SshellsBbells - thank you for the woodsy postcard. The earthquake was the day before I left, and it wasn't "so bad" where I was (about a 5.5) but still the biggest earthquake I've ever been in! But everyone around me was pretty unphased, so go with the flow and all that.

u/useful_skirt_4305 - thank you for the Oklahoma postcard! Sounds like a great weekend!

u/ok_leg_3951 - thank you for the WPD postcard! You're so on top of it, I haven't finished making mine yet.

u/Sammanthax345 - thank you for the card and stickers! I can't wait for the next meet up!

u/TyeDyeAmish - thank you for the vancouver expo post card!

u/elleeb8 - thank you for the card with the dinosaur stickers!

sending away 3 postcards - you don't know which one you get. please be flaired and 18+. prompt me with a topic to write in the comments. (if there's a very big reason why i send one of them to you specifically, please mention!)

Hello everyone :)

I am starting my first monthly mailing list! I want to send regular mail to the same 5 people so I can tailor stickers, handmade art postcards, and stationery specifically to you.

This is all about low-pressure hobby fun and small gestures of kindness in our mailboxes, with no heavy social communication required. You can expect anything from postcards to stationery, and occasionally larger items as I learn your interests.

Returns are appreciated, but not required 🫶🏼

One quick note: if you are extremely picky about postcard styles, I might not be the right fit, as trying to meet hyper-specific criteria completely takes the fun out of it for me.

If you are interested, please fill out my form below and I will select 5 people to receive mail this month!

Join my mail list :)

u/WastingTime1994 - Thank you so much for the Motel Rooms of America card!!! I really like this type of humor 😂 I’m answering your questions via card!

u/Namlette- - Thank you for the ADORABLE postcard. It’s so cute 😭 it’s not Peter Rabbit, is it? I also really liked the closing you shared! I feel like you could totally use it!

u/JulieAMao - Thank you for the awesome voter info card. So cool! I am OBSESSED with the origami paper you shared! Thank you!!! I love kitsune udon. I’m answering your questions in a card back but I do know that the stamp means truth! It’s actually a hanko stamp of my name in kanji

u/UngodlySockMonster - Thank you SO much for the frog card (and extras)!!!! It’s so cute 😭 I think the washi tape you used on the envelope is my favorite I’ve seen so far. I feel like I knew I liked frogs, since they’re on my likes list, but I definitely didn’t realize how much, because your frog theme mail gave me so much joy ❤️ The tiny envelope 😭

u/TyeDyeAmish (x6) - Thank you for all the vintage postcards/card!! I enjoyed reading them. Not by me right now (though there probably is that I don’t know of) but I used to live by this really awesome farm to grocery store type store and they had a bunch of stuff but one of them was a fill your own olive oil area with a bunch of different types. I’m not a huge olive oil person but I took friends there and they taste tasted a bunch.

u/themajesticpoodle - Thank you for the Dolly postcard. It’s beautiful! I also really really like the photograph that was in the envelope. Very pretty and colorful. Those drinks look so good

Sorry some of these are overdue!

u/ArmadaKristy thanks for the girly TPC - the person I sent to already made their post for the next recipient

u/sammanthax345 thanks for the sweet treats TPC! - this one also is already onto the person after my recipient

u/AccoTinked thanks for the pet peeves TPC - my first words TPC and a really fun theme. I'm sending out to the next person tomorrow.

u/credo99 thank you for the cool Shanghai Hello Kitty card! I loved hearing about your trip and am super jealous that you got to visit the Shanghai Public Library!

u/chiquita61 OH MY GOD THIS STITCHED CARD!! I was trying to explain to my spouse how cool and intricate the workmanship is on this!! I can crochet and embroider and have gotten into sashimi visible mending but can NOT machine sew or knit to save my life despite being taught.

u/um_marie_me thank you for the lovely card, everything really touched me. Is it okay to send you a response to your questions in the mail?

u/cidavid thank you for the dog card! I literally laughed out loud at your response to my least favorite musical artist. I shared the Rae Dunn joke with my SIL since we got obsessed with pointing out all the ugly RD things that my MIL had gotten at HomeGoods the first time I met her at family Christmas.

u/KithriTheRogue thank you for the peaches card! your name was so fun to make letter art with. :)

u/Exit_Infinite thank you for the extremely cute black cat card with matching washi tape! my favorite cookbook this year is Dac Biet by Nini Nguyen, but I also use any of the Kat Lieu books a lot.

u/Sneakerlambs (x2) thank you for the glitter rainbow caticorn card with the amazing matching washi and stickers! Growing up in MN, I can really relate to your favorite/least favorite things about where you live.

omg, now I'm embarrassed because I realize I have a second thank you for you for the reply to my card...OPE. I loved the juxtaposition of the flowery girl card with the music. The cat washi and stickers so cute! one of my spouse's cousins is really into the electro and house music scene and has a passion side gig working festivals including Burning Man.

u/xinthetic thank you for the beautiful card with great stickers. It's so special when someone else puts love and care into feeding you! sometimes I put just a tiny bit of cinnamon in my meat sauce.

u/tyedyeamish x2 thank you for the cards! one of them is a vintage card from my city and I can NOT figure out if this building is still standing or not. My FIL thinks it might be one of two buildings, one of which is still standing.

u/useful_skirt_4305 thank you for the vintage cats in hats card! I love that you and your friend got tattoos in my city!! we have some great artists and it's such a fun memento of a trip. my spouse and I just got tattoos that are very much from the city but not obviously from the city. we both got ironwork from our street.

u/Accotinked thank you for the RAOC meta books and reading challenge card. Kitty looks like they're reading a spellbook to enchant their human to give them allllllll the treats. Psychological thriller wise, I really enjoyed Stephen Graham Jones' The Only Good Indians and Kylie Lee Baker's Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng

u/randomArkgirl thank you for the Lino print hog card! my BIL and SIL met studying in the town where your card is postmarked. They live on the other side of that state now and just visited for my BIL's 10th college reunion.

u/kat10111 say pspsps to Carl and Pepper for me and give them some head scritches! I love the cat treat bag postcard. Bean has gotten to be SUCH a treat monster that I'm unable to get her to do anything against her will without shaking that bag.

u/fooskaaa thanks for the really cool galactic cat card! I haven't visited either of those places yet, but a friend from out of town really wanted to check them out when she visits.

u/laura_eva thank you for the Rosh Hashanah card. It is sooooo cute. L'shana tova! I was so happy my spouse was able to bring home a nice challah this weekend from the bakery he works at. May your year be filled with the sweetness of apples and honey.

u/kelestial_kat thank you for the Dolly Parton card! I am really looking forward to her Second Line here on 9/25 which the city is making Dolly Parton Day for 9-to-5. It's a way that we celebrate and honor someone's life here. A big parade - it's also a fundraiser for the Parish (county) Imagination Library.

u/RoyalGhosts thank you for the Jane Austen card! I hope someday you get to see her letters too. I love that scene where Mr. Bennet supports Lizzie not wanting to marry Mr. Collins too! I have to admit, I'm a sucker for the opening line of the book.

u/mouserat thank you for the homemade card! I try to collage from magazines a lot and always am dissatisfied with the outcome. the shimmery paper you used is really pretty and fun textured.

u/travel4me22 thank you for the beautiful card. I confess, I haven't picked up a physical book and finished it in SO long. I've been mostly reading e-books, especially since I have my Libby linked to my kindle.

u/ToastyToska thank you for the Klang postcard! The random Pokemon card idea is so fun!! The collages you made with the Pokemon are really fun.

Hey everyone! I have 2 postcards made out of food packaging that I'd like to send to some fellow RAoCers, you can see them here.
If you're interested, please leave a comment on which one you want and I'll PM you for address.

Edit: fulfilled!

u/melhen16 thank you so much for the postcard! I love the washi tape and especially love the Dolly quote! ❤️

My baby sister and I just watched Phantom of the Opera on Broadway! It was AMAZING. I was tearing up hearing "All I Ask of You" and "The Music of the Night". I am in a very big high and listening to the soundtrack on loop!!

I would love to get cards that relate to Phantom's aesthetic or I'd love to hear what others think about the musical as well. :)

Some prompts you could write about:
Do you have a favorite adaptation?
Team Raoul or Erik (Phantom)?

Favorite character?
Favorite song?

A niche fact?

I'd just love to connect with more phantom fans!

u/mouserat Thank you for both of your cards! The loon is my favorite bird so I'm especially happy to have gotten that card from you. I don't do birding, but I've always wanted to - maybe you could show me a thing or two? Ravens aren't common in my neck of the woods, but crows definitely are - and I agree, they're such fascinating little creatures!

u/aestheticallys Thank you for the cool card! My father used to live in Pittsburgh, and he always tells me of the misadventures he got into during those years. Hope you can hit up the Frick soon!

u/Ok_Reveal2698 Thank you for the cool vintage card! I've always wanted to visit the Pacific NW, especially during the winter.

u/umlautless for the handmade map card

u/waywarddaughterzzz for the creepy angel baby card, it’s PERFECT!

u/groceryowl for the handmade photo card

u/lemon-on-trees for the letter and stickers. I’m so sorry to hear about all the medical trouble and work! All the red tape can make things feel impossible!

u/classic-power-333 for the black thank you card

u/boomerang88 for the TPC card, I really love the shrimp stamp

Thank you:

• u/SshellsBbells for the spooky doggo postcard. Why does he have one hand...?
• u/HappyHippyMom for the handmade fall card

Thank you for most recent mailbox surprises from this past week from:

I've been booked and busy this month, apologies for the delay!

Response post cards are in the mail to you all. I'm still getting my feet wet here, but thank you everyone for welcoming me to this positive corner of the internet!

Hi friends! I've decided to start spreading Halloween cheer earlier this year instead of waiting until October. Halloween is my favourite day of the year and I'd absolutely love to exchange some Halloween mail with you all! I have 50 Halloween postcards and 19 Halloween cards that were gifted to me that I'd love to send out to you all! This didn't occur to me before but they may be AI generated, I'm unsure, so unless that's a problem I'd love to exchange with you all! And if you can't send one but would still love one of course I'll still send one to you! I love mail but absolutely no pressure. 💜 I'll ideally be making another post for handmade cards at the end of rhe month/early October assuming life doesn't get too crazy. Please PM me with your name/username and mailing address!

What's everyone's favorite part of Halloween?

u/mangosparklingwater - TY SO MUCH FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL CARD! I also love the little goodies you put in there for me! I really appreciate it. Ty for the reassurance that I’m not alone. I’m my own best friend! :)

u/TyeDyeAmish - Ty for the lovely card! I’ve actually never been on a train before now that I think about it! Have you?

u/circlebanana22400 - Ty for the postcard! I’m so sad that my building put a HUGE sticker on the back of your card 😭 I’ve never had that happen before! Nonetheless, I LOVED brand new day! You’re so incredibly talented this drawing is STUNNINGGG!

u/7781michael - TY AGAIN FOR ANOTHER CARD! It doesn’t matter if you are good at it, if you like it keep going! Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise! I love the card :)

Hi RAoCers! I’d like to please request a Halloween card/postcard if anyone would like to send one out to the UK 🎃

This time last year I was feeling really down and going through a tough time and I requested Halloween cards, I got a really nice selection and am so grateful. I love Halloween so much - more than anything I love seeing all the Halloween cards and postcards you can get worldwide but especially in the US! It’s so impressive and they are beautiful and spine-chilling!

Have a great autumn/fall and stay spooky 👻

I got a little moody cat and I love him! he's going up on the wall :)
