probably it would be best to make a new card with the same stamp...in case there are some of the same people in both trackers...

there's no problem recycling a stamp.

I made one stamp, used it on two different ltc's, sent it off to another letterboxer for use in a school project, and gave her permission to plant it as a traditional...she used it, along with the others from the school project, to make LTC's for everyone who had donated to the project...and am now it must be planted someplace because I'm getting find reports that tell me the quadratic equation was the last thing they thought they'd find in the woods. It's pretty awesome all the things one little stamp has accomplished.

I would check to see if any of the participants for one swap is also in the other. If not then use the same card for both. If there is anyone in both swaps, AQ mail that person and ask if they mind if you use the same card for both. Maybe offer to send them a "special one-of-a-kind" card to make up for them getting a duplicate. And let them know they can trade the duplicate out if they wish.

I agree. I've never sent the same card to multiple trackers (unless one of them is just a "let's trade our extras" swap). I did, however, recently reuse a stamp to make a new card. (And sent one of the originals to the swap hostess as a bonus for her.) :-)

I just got the same LTC from someone for two of the trackers I was recently in. Now I have a pair...go fish? ;)

It's ok to use the same card more than once. They are "trading" cards, so if someone gets duplicates and doesn't want them, they have something to trade through Marjori's Potpourri or another similar exchange or give away. I see no problem as long as one doesn't claim the card as their own creation.

Thanks everyone for the advice so far! I think this is the route I'll probably take. It's good to know I'm not evil for even considering re-using a card. :)
