Response: My pleasure.. goodness I'm shocked it took *that* long. We have had 2 snow days here though (this Mon and Last) and it is effecting our mail, I'm sure. But thrilled it made it finally and that it brought a smile. <3
Response: That was a fun one! Thank you for the rating. <3
Response: Always nice to come across a kindred spirit. :) Thank you for the rating! <3
Response: We did have fun! It was a bit quiet at times but we had some great kids. I felt so joyful handing out the little tulle bundles of candy tied and a little "you are loved" note tied with ribbon. It was nice to share the love.
Response: I love hearing that!! I was hoping a couple of those were rare/special to someone. :) I kinda bought them for that reason. Ha! Thank you for the rating/comment and the heart. <3
Response: Bingo!! :) Surprised they covered that!!
Response: Oh honey, I'm so sorry. Sending you love and support. *offering gentle hugs*
Response: Oooo naughty!! ;) So glad you have liked it so far. As for the wrapping paper -- I *know* I found the most perfect paper at Michaels of all places!! :)
Response: Oh bless your heart honey. Yeah it is an intense book. Worth it... but intense most definitely! I was surprised at the depth of the story.
Response: Nah, not at all :)
Response: Me too! :) I adore them both right now...
Response: I was so disappointed with the thrift stores while I was searching for lovely items for you. :( They rarely disappoint but... man I was struggling with your themes (all of which I love, by the way). I'm glad you like the strawberry stamp. I really wanted to go with something Halloween or celestial but that just wasn't in the cards (or stamps) this time. :/ <3
Response: Sadly, on the days that the Aurora is going to be the brightest we always seem to have massive cloud coverage. :/ Also, being in Anchorage (the 'big' city) all the lights kind of make it harder to see them. As for cold... yeah there is some nip in the air. *gentle sigh* I suspect snow is going to be early this year -- it's been so wet these last few weeks.
Response: Thank you! I really enjoy the freedom that the different color challenge atc swaps offer. That one was really neat to see come together. Had no idea there was going to be a theme emerge! :)
Response: Thank you! I always enjoy swapping with you. Wish I could remember how I decorated that envelope. LOL I've been trying new things.
Response: Yay! I'm so glad you like it. I was a bit worried that the person who received it wouldn't be into it. I just adored the image. :) Your compliment made my heart smile, thank you!
Response: Aww that is such an awesome compliment thank you so much!! :) The only challenge with that technique is making sure you support the other portions of the image to accommodate for the thickness of the wings. Also, I used E6000 to attach the wings to the card -- that stuff is amazing once you figure out how to work with it. :) I use it for anything that I need to have a 'tougher' hold than normal.
Response: Thank you... I'm shy about some of my ATCs. Some seem to come out really well and others... kinda rough! I guess all art is like that as you begin. :)
Response: Thank you Ayla... if you'd like a follow up reading, let me know. :)

Response: I'm so glad you like it... it was hard to give that one away, it came out so nice.
Response: LOL the cheesecake recipe was, honestly, an unintentional bonus -- I was just searching for a way to send them without anything being harmed and since I'm new to ATCs I just snagged whatever I could find to make it less bendable. :)

Response: I'm thrilled you enjoy the items. They were picked with care. :)Best wishes for finals!
Response: :) I love knowing the package made you so happy. I figure why not keep stuffing until I get my full 1 oz worth for my 46 cents?! I love having a little scale at home, for that reason.

Response: Thank you, I live in a beautiful place. :)
Response: Thank you for rating!
Response: Thrilled you like them! :) II was really hoping you would. I adore Halloween and am blessed to live in a place that has whales. Loved being able to share a bit of both with you.
Response: Oh! I hate it when that happens! Please remind me which PC I sent you and I would be happy to send you all another PC. :) Or to resend the one that got damaged. I know the wonder of getting PCs in the mail when one is little. :)
Response: My pleasure! I enjoy sharing what I have with others as well as having the joy of receiving happy mail and seeing what else is out there in the world of Kawaii. We don't have much beyond Hello Kitty here in Alaska.
Response: I'm so happy you like what I sent, I wad nervous because it is my first Kawaii swap and because my collection is minimal.
Btw: Is your swap name influenced by Black Butler at all? I meant to ask in the letter. :)
Response: Welcome to the fun adventure that is Swap-Bot! I am fairly new as well and I have loved every moment.
Wow, I'm surprised it got there to you so quickly! That is wonderful! I hope you enjoy the tea as much as I do. :)
Response: I would not be who I am, or be able to serve other people the way I will/do without my teachers.
When you are feeling cruddy at the end of a hard day and you ask yourself if what you do matters? Know in your soul that it *does* make a difference. <3
Response: I hope you enjoy your journey in psychology. I truly adore my major and my only regrets are not being able to take a couple classes I wanted before I finished. But que sera sera. :)
Love these note card swaps! Thank you for the lovely feedback.
Response: Aww you are so sweet. I'm thrilled you like the qulled snowflake. It's awesome to find someone that a: knows what quilling (spell check doesn't even know!) and to appreciate the art. I made that awhile ago. I tend to bounce around in my crafts and time is at a premium right now so swapping is my fun hobby while I finish my degree. Then, back to quilling. Your profile made me itch to get back to it. :)
Response: <3 Thank you Tommie! I appreciate you helping me figure out how to correct my mistake.
Response: *L* I probably should have made that a bit more obvious, huh?! Oops! Learning as I go! You are very welcome! :)
Response: Tea us so very lovely during the cool Winter months. I'm finding that tea is quickly becoming my "it's time to study" treat. Glad you are enjoying it!
Response: Aww that is so very sweet! Thank you Heather! I'm adoring finding a piece of happy mail in my mailbox every other day. <3
