Oh yes, I had a lovely letter all folded up into a pretty little envelope, homemade I think. Marilyn, the doiley made it just fine. It not only held everything together, but it looked elegant all tied up with the organza ribbon. The chocolate made it just fine, too, however it didn't survive long after I opened the package -- hee hee :)!

Go to a game store where young men and boys play Magic: The Gathering card game. They keep all the cards they want to trade in these types of pages and would be happy to sell them to you. I bought a packet of 65 for $10.

Marie - we don't have any game stores by us...we live quite rural :) However, we did drive into the "big" city today, and I found some trading card sheet protectors at Staples...yay! So, I don't need you to send any Madeline.

Peggy, I received your beautiful pocket letter today. It really got me in the mood for the 4th coming up. I will post pictures in a few days. My pocket letter to you will be mailed out tomorrow. I really liked your choice of envelope for mailing. It is much sturdier and protects the pocket letter envelope. Hugs, Patsy.

Patsy...I am so glad you got it. I felt like doing the 4th of July for you...so, I am glad you like it. Did you find the actual letter tucked between the two cards? I hoped with the envelope on the outside you would dig a bit deeper in that pocket. I'm glad you liked the extra Envelope Precaution because once I got that Pocket Page in the smaller envelope...I didn't want to risk it bursting open in the mail. LOL
Can't wait to get mine!!! Something to look forward to in my mail box!!
Hugs and Smiles, Peggy

I'm confused by what the title to this post was changed to..."Winner Posted" did I miss something? LOL!

Portia,
I just now saw that you got your letter! YAY! I am so happy to hear that you liked it even though the pockets were wrong. :)
This was such a fun swap - will it be recurring?

I am so sorry I meant Peggy Ann not Shirley. Been antique shopping all day. Brain still buzzing over all I saw today.

Beth Jones - I opened your letter today and really enjoyed exploring all the different pockets. I had a coral shirt on and wore the necklace immediately. I think we enjoy the same hobbies - estate sales, antique stores, vintage items. I loved the little fan, never thought about making one. I felt like I had a conversation with you reading the letter and looking at the objects - laces, the little owls, the buttons (one a button tree image with sparkles and sown edge - how did you do that?) Made my fourth very enjoyable and I will be sharing it with my family - they always enjoy my swap projects.
I really enjoyed making and receiving this project. Please do continue having them. Thanks, Becky |
