Kristi! WOW! Your cards are stunning - thank you so much for making sure I received something for August. I'm already trying to decide which of my friends will be blessed with them. Thanks again.

Kristi and Janice, thank you so much for the Mail Art. What a treasure. Janice, your ornament, card, and tea are all deeply appreciated. The perfect pick-me-up after a long week at school. And Kristi, thank you for sending it to me and for organizing this group.

Blessings,

Hi Carol!

Glad you liked the art, card, and tea. It's getting to be hot tea weather time soon, although I drink it year-round iced and hot. I think the mail art is one of the best happy mail things I could ever create and receive, so I am glad you enjoy it, too. :)

I received the most beautiful piece of Mail Art from sweet Margo R! It is a beautiful, handcrafted fan with a Victorian flair in Autumn colors. Margo, it's like you know me so well. Thank you SO MUCH! I will post pictures as soon as I can. I plan on framing this once I find an appropriate fan. Thanks again!

I mailed out my Mail Art last week and hope it was received. I forgot about the holiday though.

You're welcome Carol. This is such a great example of how the Pay It Forward program works; I had a hand up from Janice in making sure everyone was remembered Janice, you rock.

Thanks for the beautiful collaged heart Sharon. The little girl on it makes me giggle You'll notice that the soap you sent is not in the picture; my daughter very promptly made off to the shower with it and gave it rave reviews!

Kristine, I am so glad that everything made it safely and I'm glad that you like it. I found a postcard on etsy with that sweet little girl and just had to have it. I ran off copies because I thought that more gals need to see that face and smile :) I hope that you may be able to sneak some of that soap :) I'm glad that your daughter likes it :)

Thanks for hosting this fun swap :)

Hi Staci... Yes TEXAS IS ALIVE AND WELL !!

We RV a lot and were gone most of the month and DID receive your mail art! You don't know just how perfect it was. You see, so many times my hubby says "Pack up the Trailer we're going to .... for a month" YIKES! Out come the organizational lists, the packing of books and crafts to occupy me as we drive miles and miles (and days and days) to somewhere.

What was fun, had become an ordeal in my mind. Then your mail art arrived and put it all back in perspective.. the Perfect quote surrounded by big pine trees on a mini canvas:
"ATTITUDE IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ORDEAL AND AN ADVENTURE" Robert Lipkin.

YES -- I needed an attitude adjustment.. and your Inspirational Message was Perfect! Thank you soo much !

Hi Janice, I have been extremely tardy in saying thank you for my lovely Mail Art gift. Here is a picture of it. It was really fun opening up this gift. I adore the wax ornament with the dried flowers embedded in it, The eye pillow has such a cute edging! I am enjoying my gift immensely. Thank you very much!

Hi Kate! It 'twas me that sent your Mail Art - so glad you are enjoying it! It was my first time to sew an eye pillow and make a wax ornament. I really enjoyed making them as trying new things are always on my list. :)

Finally I can post a picture of the BEAUTIFUL FAN that Margo R. sent me. The picture does NOT do it justice at all, it is so lovely. Thank you again Margo!

Mary - I'm so glad you like the art. Enjoy the adventures! I hope to be able to do more of that in the future. My camper is far from road ready and too heavy for our current vehicle, so my "adventures" are in the back yard for now.
