OOOOOOOH Melissa!!
Don't worry & don't feel bad, things like this happen!! 
I had a parcel sit for 3 weeks in a PO that wasn't delivered to the person & she went for the mail every day! Go figure!
I REALLY do understand & THANK YOU for trying sooo hard! My goodness!
It's that much more exciting to look forward to! I'll let you know when it arrives!
Whatever the surprise is it's coming from a true FG friend!
Have a great weekend!
Judy

Judy,
Thank you so much for your understanding.
it's just that it can be so frusturating when it happens more than once.
My poor Gerry was waiting for a package from a company for his work and told PO them not to leave it it no one was home and they did right on the front steps. So of course it was stolen. Than he had to fill out a ton of forms just to get them to pay insurance.
Oh well such is the day in the life of snail maail LOL.
Should be there very soon I hope.
Hugs,
Melissa
Hope your rnjoying the fall colors.

Glad you liked what I sent Rachael, it was recycled including the
beads for the stick pin. Had fun putting it all together. I
understand about the mailing thing as I've had the same thing happen
to me when I've given a letter or something to my son or hubby to
drop in the mailbox for me. Not to worry and I'll let you know
when your mail art does arrive. 
What I make with my
hands, I give with my heart .... |

So excited to get the most original mailart ever!! Thank you Jessie for the quaint box with the altered-art and crackled paint styles. You helped my imagination go into gear as I started thinking of different ways to create mail art. Wish I could show it. Maybe after I move this week and there's finally time to learn how to post photos. Again, so many thanks! Jan

lol...love those pictures Jessie and the final one stating she
always wore her crown on "picture day"....very cute!
Rachael, thank you so much for the two custom made bookmarks
you sent for my mail art this month. I love them! I am an avid
reader and will use your bookmarks often. You made them so special
and pretty with the fancy beads and decorations. Just want you to
know how much I appreciate them. The Fall one with the neat words
on ribbon is going to be a favorite of mine. You made my day,
thanks!

Hi Melissa! aka mastergardenermd
I really received a sweet treat in the mail! Melissa made the cutest heart covered with pressed flowers & a fern leaf. The butterfly puts the final touch on it! Inside the box was little cloth packages of rose petals, lavender & jasmine bath salt! Each bag is decorated so cute! I just ran out of my note pad in my purse so yours arrived perfectly!
Ladies, I MUST say that Melissa went out of her way making sure I received her box of treats because her PO kept sending it back to her! But the second mail out worked & I'm sooooo glad! Now that's keeping up with a swap!!!!
Melissa & I have been emailing & let me tell you she's a real sweetheart!
Super huge hug for ALL your work & mailing time!!!!!!!
Here's the creation....
