Amy, thank you so much for your creative flower card and special country music cd
inside. I'm listening to it now and really enjoying it. What a treat to find that inside your
card!

Mary Jo, what fantastic photography and colors on your "pictures" postcard! Sweet kitty

Laurie I am sure I got your card.
as far as I know I got every ones cards
just had not posted on here.
I have to say the card swap was such a
blessing with all I had going on. My
husband would come in with mail and
happy to say you got cards today! usually
wouldn't care (ha) but he realized what
fun I was having and cheered me up on those
not so easy days.

farmgirl SISTERS
I am way behind on the april card swap
I have not forgotten you. cards going in mail today.
Lot of setbacks and delays in stroke recovery but
making progress!!. the cards are not my best art work
but well the thought that counts..lol was good
therapy for my hands so enjoyed each and every card
I made.
I just saw about Portia's passing and really saddened
me. especially since her card just went in the mail.
Will miss her.

Participating in the swaps is like therapy for me :) I love it...gives me something joyful to think about. Thank you for your prayers. My days are brighter just reading all the threads.
I ended up staying home with hubby today. He needed IV fluids, we are home...he will take a nap and I can make cards and cut fabric for the girly swap. WaHoo! Have a great weekend everyone.

Dear Christy, don't worry about the cards! Mary is right, instead you should let us worry about you. Please take good care of yourself, and I'll keep you in prayer.
Happy Day!

Unfortunately sometimes life hands us a big ole pile of lemons. I've posted twice that I was doing my cards. I've put them off. I've had trouble with a DVT(deep vein thrombosis)in my left leg the last 2 months. Painful,hard to get around and downright unpleasant :(
After two ultrasounds and an xray I'm on Mediation to dissolve the clot. Last wednesday I started to feel better. I've had to work during all of this...I have no days off for myself because my husband has cancer and is on Chemo. All my vacation/sick time is used for his appointments. Be patient with us...we all have something in our lives now and then. I'll promise a 3rd time LOL. I'll do my best to get them out this week. I love all of you and appreciate the time it takes to run these ultra fun swaps.

ANYWAY...My cards will go out Saturday morning. They are pretty, if that is any consolation.

Marilyn, don't worry about it, it's easy to get confused about swaps, I do I all the time!

I have received so wonderful cards! Thanks from the heart!
... and, as I received those fantastic cards, I have to apologize. I didn't realize I had to send out cards to everyone... I only made one, as I thought it was the same principle as Mail Art. I'm utterly sorry. I should have asked before joining. I will try to be more careful from now on. So sorry again. -_-

I'm glad you enjoyed our Texas Springtime!

Billie- Just love the pinks on the flowers. Amy- Love the card with the cute saying. I remember 20 years ago when my youngest daughter made me a flower magnet for Mother's Day with that saying on it. Love the CD.
