I am truly intrigued with Marilyn's one ATC, the heart that looks like it has hearts as wings :-) They all look so pretty but that one just stands out ~~~ Very nice work :-)

Marie and Connie I'm glad you liked your ATC's. They were so fun to make! I've had a really busy week but finally found time to get some photos uploaded.
Marie sent me a lovely round ATC made with origami hearts and gold trim; a wonderful vintage valentine ATC with silk cording to frame the photo and a heart charm, plus a "color-your-own" box of sweethearts and some organic teas. Thanks Marie these are beautiful and the treats will be gone by the end of the day!

Beth sent me an adorable vintage valentine with a spinning heart at the bottom; a very clever valentine doll with moving parts and an antique valentine message on the front; plus a beautiful hankie with a floral and ribbon design. Thanks for the wonderful ATC's and your never-ending creativity Beth!

I have enjoyed this swap and looking at everyone's pictures. Thanks for hosting Connie!

The winged heart is, I believe, called the Sufi Heart. It is the symbol of the Sufi order of Islam. The Sufis are the most mystical and spiritual of the Islamic people and are sometimes considered a bit off balance. The symbol respresents the heart as the soul or medium between spirit and matter and its ascension. It is a beautiful symbol of spirituality.

Thank you for much to my partners, Marie and Marilyn... Marie sent a lovely red, black, and white origami Valentine with havnger and a sweet heart surrounded with gold trim and a sweet poem on the card! Thank you for the teas and conversation hearts...I still love to read those and the cowboy card! hoop, hoop.......
Then Marilyn sent a most romantic heart card with cutout wings...made me think of Battenburg lace. The color pink was lovely~~ The tradition ATC card Valentine was so wonderful, too!! Thank you for the teas and lovely paper bits and bobs.
You girls were sweet partners and I love my "pretties". Smiles, Beth
You can never be to kind! |

Hello everyone!
Heather- I received your beautiful trading cards/ornaments. They are great. I will post a picture soon. Thank you.
My ATCs are going out tomorrow. We had a snow day today so didn't make it to the mailbox.
Sending hugs to you all.
Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and He will say: Here Am I.

Glad they arrived safely and that you like them. We're getting hit with a big snow storm this evening - they're saying up to 12 inches!!!

You are so welcome Connie. BTW your coat rack really did well as a
display for your farmgirl artwork and love that ribbon doll on the
end! Everyone's atc's were so pretty. 
What I make with my
hands, I give with my heart .... |

You're welcome Connie. This was a great swap! I love seeing what everyone came up with!
Jenny,
Thank you so much for your ATC's and goodies!
I never thought to add pearls! That's a great idea. I love all the sparkle too! The cinnamon mints are wonderful. And the heart scarf will go great with my white sweater. Thanks for a fun swap! Have a great Valentine's day!!
Hugs,
Heather

Linda, Thank you! that was my Ribbon Doll I made for Betty-Dapple Gray lady for the Valentine Ribbon swap with Beth Jones. I hung her there, until I mailed her out so the Kitties couldn't reach her! My hubby came home with a coat rack from Home Depot and nailed it to the wall in the laundry room, since I said, "that one was for Farm Girl stuff! LOL!!
Darlene, we missed you!
Portia, Thank you! I have just the one wall green, the other 3 are beige. Green is my favorite color!
I just went back thru all pages of this forum, looking at every body's ATC's and I am just so proud to have been the Host of this swap!
I want to thank all of you! for making this swap so much fun for all of us!.JPG)
Big Hug! Happy Valentines Day

Glad you liked them Heather. My daughter helped with the pearls! She's now hooked on making ATCs.
I loved yours too and will post a pic soon. Thank you!

What wonderful ATC's that the Farm Sisters have all done. Just Love Them !..
My partners were Debi Carr who sent me some lovely ATC's in cute handmade envelopes. A wonderful fun presentation; as awll as a small Lilac Sachet *Lilac is one of my favorite fragrances!!
Denise Christensen sent 2 wonderful PINK valentine ATCs. Very creative and feminine. She also included 3 wonderful carmel filled chocolate candies. They are not in the picture because I had other plans for them... YUM! Thank you both so much.. The ATCs were awesome and I can't wait to show them off to my girlfriends.
Attached are the pictures of each (I hope!)
