Okay my wonderful Farm sisters....
Received a texted message from Summer today... She has received several cards in the mail and she is LOVIN' all of them. She has one she received that is a sign. She said, " I am hanging it right next to my bed so i can read her encourging thoughts when i wake up!"
I am attempting to upload a snap shot she send of a "few of the one's she's received". She said "they are so kind and warm, I got tears". She also received a tablet with a "compacit" pin. love them. She asked to please tell them that I loved them and Thank you!

Okay, I have attempted 3 times now to upload this picture of the cards Summer's received. Any suggestions? I tried above, but I am not seeing it. Is anyone?

Carol...I got Summer's Mail-Art back for having the wrong zipcode. You must have hit a wrong number when you typed it but I looked up on The USPS site and Got it corrected and re-sent. Hope it makes it to her ok. Glad to hear she is being uplifted and encouraged by the Mail-Art she has received. That is Perfect!
Blessings, Peggy

Madeline, glad you got the spring magnet. WIth all the rain we're having here in PA, we should soon be enjoying a vast amount of spring flowers! I'm looking forward to seeing some butterflies, too.

Sorry, Linda Jo, I've been on vacation for a week. I received your May mail art. It's beautiful! Everyone is so creative on here. It a created mussie tussie with lace wpapped around the cone and a real pretty bouquet of flowers on it and such pretty ribbon and she sent me a fragrant sachet of lilly-of-the-valley- one of my favorites. Thanks so much. I still have to get mine done for May. I like doing them, but I sit and stew what to make-what to make. I like getting them so well that I hang on and try to come up with something nice. |

Nettie - Thank you SO much for the lovely Mail Art you created for me - I love it! You really made my day!
SO pretty - and one of my favorite sayings, too! Please forgive my delay - it did arrive on Tuesday, but I was sick and unable to post until now. :) I'll be writing you back very soon!

www.youravon.com/rodonnacarson [/quote ]I received your sweet mail art today and was so surprised to see it was from my home state! I had not noticed in this post that you were in Frankfort, so it was a total surprise to me. Thanks for the flower seeds and I hope to get them in the ground this weekend. As you probably know, we have been getting LOTS of rain the past few weeks! I will try to get a photo on here later. Thank you again and blessings to you too.

So sorry for the delay. I have been dealing with a sick bunny rabbit pet and trying to get garden in between rain drops.
I just love seeing all the Mail Art and how sweet and beautiful it all is. Brings tears to my eyes and sunshine to my heart.
Hugs to you all,

Peg, I must of "fat fingered it". Thanks for taking the time to correct. It was quite overwhelming with all the wonderful responses.

Nini - your mail art arrived yesterday. Thank you so much! It is absolutely gorgeous. The colors, the flowers, the vintage graphics - perfect. Thank you! If you took photos, please post them. My computer and camera are not talking to each other right now ...very frustrating. If you didn't or can't, I'll keep trying.
Blessings, staci FG# 973 :o )

HI Jonesy
I'll try, my scanner is a bit persnickety & sometimes it works & sometimes not so much.
