Love that pretty picture Connie. Thanks for your darling card that arrived yesterday. Those cute little ducks can truly shake their tail feathers! MaryBeth, loved your little girl in "Spring Showers" card. You even had Easter baskets with eggs on the front and loved the stamped butterflies inside! Love this "happy mail". Working on my cards and will mail out Monday or Tuesday.

2 more cards arrived yesterday! Thank you so much Connie--You made me such a beautiful card, and the chocolate candy was a great surprise!! Your Easter display is awesome! I wish my daffodils were blooming.. we just have tiny green tips poking out of the ground!
Sarah, that is the CUTEST bunny ever--I love the little flower in her "Hare"! (hahaha!) Thank You!!
And I wanted to thank Portia again for the tea! I had never tried that flavor before--It was delicious!! I love the color of it. I was thinking that I might use that tea not for just drinking, but perhaps I will try dying Easter eggs with it! That color-WOW!! My cards went out this morning! Happy Weekend everyone!! xoxoxo

Mary Beth, thank you so much for the darling scampering bunnies card. It is sooo pretty. I love bunnies and had one as a child, plus when my children were little, they had them as well. Beautiful creatures!!!

Sarah, that bunny is precious! I love the way you put the two colors together (boy and girl bunny, I guess...)The brad to hold them is nifty. I don't have the machine for that but am thinking about purchasing it. Have a "hoppy" Easter.
Hugs, Portia

Suzanne, you really out-did yourself!!!! Ladies, instead of painting an Easter scene, she painted crawfish on mine because she knows Louisiana is my "heart" home. I was sooo excited. I am thinking of framing it! You are one talented lady!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I could paint like that.....just stick people for me.

Portia,
I wanted a Cricut for years. I finally broke my hubby down and he let me get one. It's been a lot of fun, you will love it since you make so many cards. :) Glad you liked the bunny.

Sarah, I have had a Cricut for several years and barely use it. I do not have many cartridges. I mainly used it when I was teaching. I am partial to the dies for my Big Shot. I should probably sell the Cricut. Maybe I would use it if I bought more cartridges! It seems like I have sooo many gadgets!

Thank you Portia, I am so glad you liked. I love all of the cards I have received so far. They perfect in my mantle display my girls helped me with. This has been a fun exchange.

Connie,
So you bought the bottles and added the wire? I love that idea - I may have to try to make some of these to hold my cards too, do you think a 20gauge wire will be strong enough to hold cards? :)

Here's all the mail I've received recently: Sarah, I love your "cut out" bunny, he is so precious. Love the colors you picked for him too.
Suzanne, the tulips postcard was beautiful and so perfect for me as we are just at the beginning of the "Skagit County Tulip Festival" here. Love your art work, it's amazing!
Christa, what a cheery Easter tag in those bright colors & the pretty little flower with a gem in the middle.
Teresa, your sweet Spring fairy card arrived today. Thanks so much. (I also loved those darling stickers on the envelope with the bunny and chicks...so sweet).
I'm finishing up my cards and they will definitely be in tomorrow's mail!
What I make with my hands, I give with my heart .... |

Sarah. I'm sorry I misunderstood you, I bought those Little Bottle holders like that, at little drugstore near where I live. You can make them easy, any design, these were made by local crafters. looks like 18-20 gauge.

I love all my my cards. It is so nice getting something pretty in the mail. I would love to try and talk my husband into a cricut , but with all the equipment I have at present I think it would be a mute point to even try. He would only counter with " and when would you have time to even use it?" My good friend has one and a room dedicated to oodles of paper of every kind and decorations and ribbons all organized. It is a crafters dream land. So I just go and play with her stuff.
