@itamerentytar has proposed a wishlist tag for decorations on the back in Tags Discussions + Proposing new Tags. Voice your opinion if you are interested or would like to adjust the rules of the tag.

On another topic

I would like to start a tag for people who love decorating cards, with these “rules”:

Say 5 themes you’d want to receive as the card
And up to 3 things you would like in decorations

And then the next person sends you a card from one theme you listed but the decorating likes aren’t obligatory. (Because people don’t have endless amount of different types of washi tapes and stickers. It would take the creativity out of it. But it would be a fun guideline so it would make the decoration unique just for the person.)

For example, you could say that you like shades of reds, use of stickers and washi tape. Or you like drawings, plants and colour coordination.

Those, if you want! Of course can be full surprise if you want that for yourself.
No handmade cards and no envelopes.
You wouldn’t see the card or the backside before you receive it.

This tag would be for us who love to decorate the backs of our cards but don’t have enough addresses to send to. Or who would love to send even more decorated cards, to others that we know will appreciate them.

I’ve seen a few tags for decorated cards but not with these “rules”. I like that it would go almost as normal postcrossing, expect we know the people love decorated cards.
