desperadosdream	Posted - Dec 15 2012 : 2:03:21 PM Ok so here are the rest of the lovelies I received from my farmgirl partners. I of course have had them for a few days but I'm just now getting pics posted. Well fiddle these pictures are tags from Lindagwynn and Idaho Shamrock (Kathy) and now that I'm uploading I cannot find the pic of the cute tag and sweet tucks I got from Debbie Fisher. I will however persevere and either find it or take new pics (teehee) and get them up. Really enjoyed all my tags and all the fun. Malena
Madelena	Posted - Dec 13 2012 : 04:17:42 AM TERESA... I have FINALLY printed out my treasures from Novembers swaps.. And have a pic of the wonderful 3-D Tags that you shared with me. They were just gorgeous.. and have already found homes! Thank you so much. You are so creative !

lindagwynn	Posted - Dec 11 2012 : 09:47:23 AM Thanks for the heads up, no problem, sounds like you having plenty going on. Take care of yourself. With lots of hugs and smiles, have a great day. " Your body knows how to heal itself; just give it the right tools." Farmgirl#3864 Linda
desperadosdream	Posted - Dec 10 2012 : 9:10:07 PM Yes Linda I did receive my tags. Thank you so much I love them. I thought I had posted receiving them but perhaps I overlooked it. I do apologize. I still have to get photos taken of some of my tags to post though. I've had my grandbaby off and on for the last 2 weeks and of course it was when I decided to start tearing out a wall in my house and had a plaster mess everywhere..Ugh what a disaster dirt and filth from the wall and a crawling baby with an ear infection who is teething. It's just always something isn't it. I will do my best to get the rest of my tag pictures posted this week but I know I am having baby Bentley all day tomorrow so it will likely be a bit later in the week. Love to all you sweet gals Malena

lindagwynn	Posted - Dec 09 2012 : 10:23:17 AM Hello desperadosdream, I was wondering if you received my tags, I sent them 11/27. I don't remember seeing you post anything. You are very good about posting so I hope they got to you. With lots of hugs and smiles, have a great day. " Your body knows how to heal itself; just give it the right tools." Farmgirl#3864 Linda
