Thank you Marilyn for your detailed summer card. Loved the ice-cream truck on the front, reminded me of many fun summers in the past when I was younger and also when my kids would come ask for change to get an ice-cream cause they heard the truck's music playing.

I miss you girls. I can't wait to be back next month. I just couldn't this month my favorite scrap store is closing. That upset me. Hubby had to have emergency surgery freaked me out. I work for a school and my job is up in the air for next year. Just too much. Ruthie Ann

Aw,,Ruthie. I’m sorry so much is going on right now. I hope your husband is doing well. And will be up, and around soon. Soo many people are coping with so many things with the Virus. Everyone needs to get back to work, but there’s still some surges going on now. Just take good care of yourself and your family. Stay safe and, We miss you. Love, Mary

Ruthie Ann, I'm so sorry about the difficulties that have come at you at this time. And Marilyn, I can't imagine how difficult it must be to not feel like yourself, distractions can really take the wind out of our sails! Meanwhile, I have received a bunch of wonderful cards, I just love this swap! Once again, I had a goal of sending out on time, but my cards finally made it to the post office yesterday. I promise I'll be one of the first ones next time!! I'm grateful for all of you, have a lovely evening!

I've received such beautiful cards! I love all of your creativity and sweet messages. It makes it so much more fun to go to the mailbox lately :) Has anyone received mine yet? I was a little late as usual, but hopefully they are finding their way to you! Have a beautiful day

Finally got my cards mailed out yesterday so they are on their way.
Jill, loved the sweet little bird on a branch and the different patterned paper you used to create it. I too love Emily Dickinson, perfect for your little bird.

Linda, thank you for your beautiful card! I love the flowers, they really bring some needed cheer, thank you all! I like to put the pictures here so farmgirl sisters who may be exploring new swaps to try (like me!) can see what people do. I hope you all don't mind! Have a very beautiful weekend!

Mary - Thanks for your darling "Hang With Friends" card. Love the yellow flowered background paper too.
Marilyn - On the inside of your card I did photograph the flowers but my sis gets credit for growing them.
Jill- Thanks, so glad you liked my card. My husband and I did grow that rose on the inside of your card. We had a trellis for 4 different rose bushes and they all did so well, must have been the sunny spot and rose food we gave them.
