Posted - Jun 01 2016 : 04:25:50 AM I just emailed out the address list for this month's card swap. Please double check your's and let me know if there are any errors. And of course, if you didn't get them let me know that too.
Let's keep it simple for this next swap. Our inspiration theme will be our glorious American flag, since the cards will go out in time for Fourth of July celebrations. Can't wait to see how creative everyone gets with this!
Sign up by June 15
Cards go out the week of June 26
Send a card to each person in the swap. Cards can be handmade, store bought, altered or repurposed. We're not all artists, but we all love cards!
Please email your address if you didn't participate in the May swap. Thanks!
**If you're new to this swap, welcome! It's called "Portia's Card Swap" to honor the spirit of creativity and kindness of our dear sister Portia Troupe, who hosted this swap until her sudden passing earlier this year.**
Hugs and Happy Day! Peace in our hearts, peace in the world Amy (Sister#6098) www.danaherandcloud.com

Posted - Jul 20 2016 : 6:09:05 PM Marilyn, Thank you so much, just got your amazing handmade American Flag with "God Bless America" on it and your enclosure note to "Pray For America" we sure need prayers in this country right now. Your flag is a "keeper" and love how you have the festive red and yellow cords on it too.

Posted - Jul 12 2016 : 7:37:45 PM Thanks Mary, I love photography and was so surprised when I was able to catch that hummer on camera. Received your lovely July card yesterday with the neat question and pull out answer inside as well as that colorful description of a fireworks display you viewed on Tampa Bay Bridge. Loved the 2 stamps you used on the front of the card with "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. I had a hard time this year finding very many 4th of July rubber stamps. Thanks everyone for all the neat July cards!

Posted - Jul 10 2016 : 3:37:18 PM Oh.. LInda (hummingbird joy) I'm Enjoying the wonderful hummingbird card, and I really appreciate your bird information.
You take wonderful pictures! We spent many summers in Eagles Nest, NM at the Golden Eagle RV park.
When the flowers in front of the office are in full bloom, they are also filled with Hummers! I even able captured a picture of a "hummingbird moth" enjoying the lovely blooms. So delightful.

Posted - Jul 07 2016 : 04:10:08 AM So many wonderful cards have come over the past week:
Linda, I really your layered star, vintage graphic and sparkly tag in the kraft bag "pocket"! April, fantastic vintage military playing card postcard, WWI images I think? Rebecca, such a clever idea making sparkly stars into balloons with red, white and blue strings! Mary, your layers are the perfect frame for those great words - and I love the trivia pocket idea! Mary Jo, as always your artist's eye created an extraordinary image from ordinary life! Sarah(flygirl) where on earth did you find the poker chip postcard - it's so unusual and fabulous! Sarah(mrssarashall) love your sort of prim image on the cover with button trim, and the great graphic inside of one of my favorite songs!
So much talent, creativity and ingenuity, I'm so blessed to have all these beautiful cards. Thank you to every one who participated this month. You outdid yourself again, Farmgirls!
