Wow
What great ideas. Our town is just about to hold our relay for life relay. We have so much fun doing it. And what a great cause. Finding a cure for cancer. My mother in law has cancer she is 82 and she is doing great the Dr. calls her his wonder woman.
Keep up the great work.........

I am so glad that you liked it. I was worried about it. But butterflies are one of my favorite things. and we have so many in Utah. My hubby won"t cut down the MILK WEEDS until they all hatch. We sure have a lot of fun with them.
Your farmgirl friend

Sharon (Bobbinrobin)... It was a crazy week. I'm sorry I'm just now letting you know that I got your mail art on Monday. Gorgeous!!! Did you press the pansy? It's very lovely and "serene". The quote inside is very nice, too. I've recently discovered and begun to develop a true, deep friendship and feel that a new world has been born in me through it. Thank you so much!
Blessings, staci FG# 973

Peggy, it warms my heart to know that there are so many people, like you and your hubby, that respect our earth and nature......not cutting the milk weed until all the butterflies have hatched is so wonderful. So many don't realize that by cutting dried bushes, plants etc in the Fall/Spring ends the life cycle of so many insects, butterflies etc! Thank you for sharing that and I love all the gorgeous Mail Art that you girls create. When I finish a couple of my swaps, I'm going to sign up and give this a try!! Get those creative juices working!! Hugs and Smiles, Lin

Thanks lin,
We have our bird feeders out for the humming birds and the other kind too. We now have swallows making nests right above my new windows . They have the nest made and are now working on the eggs. We enjoy so many of natures best here. It is worth a little mess to watch mother nature do her thing.
farmgirl friend,

The May/June 2010 issue of the "Cloth Paper Scissors" magazine has a great article showing the reader swap results for "Pass it on: mail art affirmations."
