I've emailed the August card list to everyone. Please let me know if you don't get it! Thanks

*****Dear Card Friends: This is the last month that I will be able to host the Card Swap. If anyone is interested in taking over hosting, please let me know. Thanks so much!*****

What's your favorite old-time summer pleasure? Home-made ice cream? Lazy picnics? Naps on the porch? Whatever you love most about those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer, share it in your August card. Can't wait to see how creative everyone gets with this!

Sign up by July 15

Cards go out the week of July 24

Send a card to each person in the swap. Cards can be handmade, store bought, altered or repurposed. We're not all artists, but we all love cards!

Please email your address if you didn't participate in the June swap. Thanks!

**If you're new to this swap, welcome! It's called "Portia's Card Swap" to honor the spirit of creativity and kindness of our dear sister Portia Troupe, who hosted this swap until her sudden passing earlier this year.**

Hugs and Happy Day!
Peace in our hearts, peace in the world

Happy as always to have you in the card swap, Marlene and Mary Jo :) I also want to welcome a new Farmgirl who contacted me on email about joining the card swap this month, Brenda Fouty! And a big welcome to Angie Gordon (Farmgirlquilting) who got left off last month's list (big oops on me :o)! I'll make sure their addresses are on this month's list.

Hugs and Happy Day!

I received two cards yesterday! Rebecca, those are some of my favorite summertime things too. I really loved the stamps you used, too. Marlene, we retreat to the woods when the heat gets bad, it's always cool there. Love the dimensional butterfly on the inside of your card! :)

Hugs and Happy Day!

I received two lovely cards today. Thanks to Rebecca for her "Good Old Summertime"
card with ice-cream and soda on the front (and sweet purple butterfly) and loved your
summertime descriptions inside!

Thanks also to Marlene for her summertime path card lined with trees...looks so
restful. You are having close to the same weather as we are here in Boise. Mostly
high 90's and some 100 degree days all last week and now down to mid 90's.

My cards were mailed out today.

Thank you Amy for your "summertime" bicycle card. It was so cheery and pretty, reminded
me of all the fun filled summers I had as a kid with my friends, riding our bikes everywhere.

Thursday was a great day for me. My mom came home from the hospital and my mailbox was full of cards!

Mary, sweet kissing cuties and what a fun song. I sang it to Mom, she loved it
Angie, such a sunny yellow card, homemade peach ice cream is one of my summer special memories
Linda, your beach-y theme was right on target, and the popsicle idea is so clever. Also, great stamp on the back of the envelope :)
Marilyn, yum - the watermelon slice looks so cheerful, and also the envelope back in matching colors! You always do such great for schemes!
Brenda, I have several Rose of Sharon, aren't they pretty in August? Love your list of summer fun, especially #4 :)
Mary Jo, You are such a good photographer! Your adorable picture speaks volumes!

I think we're creating a perfect picture of the perfect old fashioned summer with all our cards!



Hugs and Happy Day!
