                      Gotcha all !!!     Hoping you all stay well in this Covid season.   My daughter’s boyfriend has it...and I missed our Sunday trip to STARBUCKS and watching our Church service on line together.  We’re social distancing.   Eat well.  Take your vitamins.   Laugh and Love a lot.
  I’ll send out the mailing list October 5th.   Just in case we have a new comer.

                      Please sign me up!  I’ve not done this swap before so I need a little guidance.  What other goodies are sent along with the card?  How do I give you my address?

                      Jill, loved your George Cooper poem and the beautiful trees and leaves picture on the front you could even see the wind in it, looked closer and could even see the sweet little ladybug on the bottom branch.

                      Jill, your sweet poem sent my mind on a journey to my early days of teaching first graders. This was a poem I used each year, asking the little ones to close their eyes and use their imaginations, as we pretended we were out doors in the chilly/cold wind wearing our brightly colored clothes our mommy's had found for us. Then back into our nice warm classroom where we examined the leaves we had found . Then we took out our crayons and scissors and glue so we could make our leaf people! They could choose to use my paper leaf shapes and/ or some of the leaves they found outside.So thanks for the reminder and the  memories.

                      Loved the 2 newest cards I received.  Thanks to:
  Nora, for her creative leafs falling from tree card.  I too love all the changes of the season.
  Rebecca, for her colorful bridge with flowers and sweet little Autumn guy inside and I loved how you decorated your envelope.

                      Thanks to Marlene.  Your pretty pumpkins Autumn/Halloween card arrived today.  Love the quote inside and the miniature "Punch Studio" card tuck.  I love their cards and bought their valentine miniatures last year. Also liked the Halloween holographic stamp on your envelope.

                      Linda.   Wonderful descriptions of the lovely cards from Nora and Marlene.  Every month the cards just get better and better. Way to go, Ladies !!
