I went and picked up my supplies for *Spring* but before I get started I need to make sure that there are no special rules... It is suppose to be about Spring, right? Just need to be sure I do it the correct way. My mind is going to be getting fried again... soon... as my classes begin again tomorrow...

Also, even though it's "postsecret" you can make your secrets anonymous or include your screen name on your postcards. Whatever floats your boat :)

Hi Jen!....The cards are in the mail with the $5 spot....We hope it won't take to long to get to you....

So I make 10 projects with "spring" as the theme.
They can be anything I'm assuming? Any medium, whatever, as long as it fits in an 8x10 envelope right?
Then I mail all ten to Tommi with $5.00 each for postage, then he mails them all out?

So a few questions...
Why don't we just mail them to the other people ourselves?
Do all 10 things have to be the same?
Can you choose who gets which item you make? Can you personalize them in some way for each person?

I think that's all my questions.

Everyone pretty much covered this I think but I just wanted to mention to just do what feels right, whether you think it will 'work' or not. We're a very diverse group here and it's so inspiring and surprising to see how others interpret the same theme. It's a very good day when our packages arrive.

Keep in mind that the number of pieces to do will fluctuate until the sign up deadline hits so don't get hung up on making one specific number (like 10) just yet. It may or may not change.

Now to work on the spring one and to do the sketches of the xmas ornaments for the reunion raffle...which I hope the sketches can be used in one of these projects somehow..lol...

Ornament sketches? That could be pretty neat! Maybe you could use them, if you want, for one of the letters in the PLANET book? T for time of year or N for nine (if you have that many sketches when you're done)? Or were you going to do them separately? Either way, it sounds pretty darn nifty.
