I think because Candismom (Elizabeth) had to drop out maybe she felt funny getting the cards. I know I did when I first started receiving them and I haven't been able to reciprocate. Then I thought about how you girls knew we had dropped out and sent them anyway and I was grateful that you thought of me and you don't know how those cards have brightened my days. I have been struggling with some things lately and just to have my husband walk in with the mail and ask how come I rate so well to get all those envelopes each day helped me laugh. Thanks again girls. You are treasures.

Ok, girls. Mine are hung over my antique quilt hanging--had to get them out of the "dog reach", and tomorrow, I plan on taking them down and putting them in an acid free photo box for safe keeping. So pretty, it's hard to say which one is my favorite, I love them all!!!

That would be very sad to think that Elizabeth turned away her cards...I'm hoping it's just a silly postman, Mary Beth! Anyway, I can't wait until next year and I'm very glad, Denise, that they helped a little bit to make you smile. There's nothing better than mail from Farmgirls!!!

Hello All!
I LOVED being a part of the Valentine exchange, a great big thank you to Sue for organizing it!
I did get one "return to sender" from Teresa Schneider ... I will check the name & address and get it back into the mail. Our computer has been down for a week so I'll check the back log of messages in case there is info there too.
XOXO,
Tracey
Life is sweet ... Bee happy! |

Tracey - I got a return to sender from Teresa as well. Did anyone else? The address was correct on it and I checked it with the original list and it was the same.
I really like the card with the flower seeds in it...very creative!! Would you gals know that I looked all over for a single heart stamp to do the ladybug spots and couldn't find one, so I used one with 3 hearts in it....the day after I mailed those boogers out, I stumbled across a single heart stamp. haha. It would only happen to me, but at least I have it now and I can use it for so many projects. I love stuff with ladybugs on it and thought that would be something neat to do for a card. Hope you liked them!

I got another today--the postmark was over a week ago, so mail must be travelling slow. It was so pretty, it was worth the wait, though:)
