Comment: Thanks so much for doing this swap with me. We don't get Tastycakes in my area, but my mm loves them, so.. I wanted to get some for her. :) And I especially love the atc's (including the robot). ^_^
Comment: Your Priscilla owl is just adorable. Her expression priceless. :-) Thank you for sharing your new coloring technique. I am going to have to try that. Very nice! Thank you ever so much. I'm thrilled to add your owl to my collection!
Comment: Thanks for the fun owl ATC. I have yet to break away from my watercolor pencils and try the regular colored pencils and gamasol. Nice effect! <3
Comment: Wow Lala! What a cool card; I love it! Thank you for the pretty napkin, too! I'm developing a thing for frogs, so I can't wait to use it! Thanks for joining the swap! xoxox
Comment: Thank you for the wonderful package of note cards and rubberstamp images - you have a lot of nice bird stamps, and I loved the cat image too!!
Comment: Thank you so much for the wonderful letter and book mark . I love em . I am sitting down tonight and writing you a letter . take care dear and look for my letter .
Comment: Lol - the PC quality is definitely "horrible" but the subject is kinda cute. :) Thank you. If you want to swap PCs let me know because I don't have one from PA yet - I'm collecting American states. :)
Comment: love it!
glad you decided on a bird we all can intimately relate to!
i know of the famed blue crabs, but am glad
there is also a lucrative industry raising & cooking up those succulent birds ...
that recipe makes my mouth water,
even tho' i'm basically vegetarian
> have a super springy month!
Comment: Thank you sooo much for your lovely swap and the altered swap idea with the book-pages..I have to try it:-) I am sure I can use all things you sent:-)
Comment: I love the panda you drew me! THAT is most definitely getting smashed. :D The memos you sent were super cute and just my style. I also like the to/from labels you sent! I love French! Thank you for the thoughtful swap!
Comment: Thanks for the all around great mail! I love the converse ATC, super cute drawing. Thanks for the stickers, letter and for liking my stuff on etsy. So nice!
Comment: YAY! Just got your envelope today and it is awesome! I like how you erased the area for your drawings and put the address along the bottom so it didn't cover the litte scene. I never thought of that. Thank you so much for re-sending....and the extras too :)
Comment: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Oh THANK YOU!!!!!! I love the oyster and the petiole!!!!!!! AWESOME addition to my collection!!!!!!!! Thank you Lala!!!!!!!
....Oh and I love digital paper too!!!!!!!!!!
Comment: Hi LaLa! Wow! What a great ATC! It was so nice of you to look up my profile to see what I like! The Mermaid is especially pretty and so well done (my swap-bot friends are so envious!)
I had to laugh out loud with your comment on my address (Mikey's Gyros) because that's where I work and often forget how yummy a Gyro can be!
Thanks so much for this terrific treat!
Comment: Thank you for the beautiful Pitcher Plant ATC. I used to live in Wilmington, NC where the Venus Fly Traps live so I really love this. Great job.
Comment: Thanks! I love when envelopes are made out of everyday things that you would really never think could be made into an envelope! Happy Swapping! :)
Comment: Yes it take a bit longer for postcrossing ive noticed. Expecially if your settings are for only other countries, but it's still fun. Great ATC's. I love the moth colors. Thanks so much!
Comment: Thank you for the Gettysburg postcard! I try to pick up postcards everywhere I go too, but unfortunately I haven't been able to find any recently....
Comment: Thanks for the squares and your sweet note. I find that the punch works better if you punch quickly. I bought a punch just for this swap and it didn't do well if I punched slow. Have a great day!
Comment: LaLa,thanks so much for the scripture verses,the great envie,and all the great extra's! Its really nice to receive such a great swap in the mail!
Comment: Thank you for the beautiful Inchies and I love how you presented them:-) I did the Altered Text ATC, also and had not thought to do them on an Inchie. Great Idea!
Comment: I loved both the surprises you sent. The watercolor reminded me of a Monet and the Blue crazy quilt was terrific. You did a great job. Thanks, bearnbabs
Comment: You picked two perfect words for me! My father was a carpenter and so I am familiar with kerfs. Nicely designed card. And the lotus is one of my favorite flowers. I can't help but think spiritual thoughts when I see one. So thank you for two such personal additions to my alphabet collection. <3<3<3<3<3
Comment: I so love this ATC. I love to paint fish and humor in art is a good thing. I showed the Icecream Cone fish to my husband and he said there should also be a hot fudge jelly fish or a jelly fish alla mode pie fish etc... so guess what I'm doing now.
Comment: LOVE your pointillism atc done with somewhat larger dots. I've always done mine much smaller, but the larger dots are a whole new way to go. Love your watercolor background too, and the other goodies. Peace to you
Comment: Thanks for the great scripture cards. I understand completely about the handwriting! I do my verses on the computer. I like using different translations of the Bible--dependent on what I'm looking for. KJV sometimes feels a bit more "lyrical" with the psalms and other biblical poetry.
Comment: I was so impressed and delighted when I got your bird inchies! They are fabulous. You have inspired me, I love your approach, the collage, the tiny borders, the tiny words - thank you ,thank you!!!
Comment: Beautiful, personal, and encouraging! Mind you, I could hardly find the cards in all the other wonderful bits and pieces of paper in the well-stuffed envie. Such a thoughtful treat, and clearly chosen with care and an eye to my likes, rather than a 'last-moment destashing', as some extras seem to be. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and spoiling!
Comment: I absolutely adored the ATC's and little note! We do have a lot in common! ^_^ You'll have to PM me your address so I can reply! Can think of a couple of things to make/send :D
Comment: Thank you for all the memo sheets - I really appreciate the extras! And I love, love, love the skull ones! And thank you for the super cute stickers - they are going to come in handy for Kawaii inchies in the future! Thanks again - it's always a lot of fun trading with you!
Comment: Thank you SO much for the note and the sticker flakes! I'm sending to you in another kawaii swap, so I'll answer your no-poo question there. <3 Thanks for the coordinating stickers!!! :D
Comment: Thank you for the lovely ATC. You obviously spring for the expensive nice punches - love that tree and I appreciate the extra punches to play with! May I ask where the medallion comes from? It is so ... mysterious!
Comment: Thank you for the cute mini memo's! They are really adorable. I love how you decorated the envie too! Let me know if you want to exchange more memo's sometime. Hugz
Comment: Okay, I don't know which is cooler, that you did a wood burning, or that you repurposed the sticky things on stamp booklets! Also, the hand made letters rock!
Comment: thanks so much for all the cute stamped images! I esp. love the owl & bird ones! and thanks too for you nice comments about my profile/life! yep, i am one lucky/happy gal! Take care & have fun swapping! :)
Comment: I looooove this atc! And I'm not just saying that because of my obvious love for anything robotic, but seriously, it's so cute! I was also happily surprised to see that we both used the same gems for our atc's. (Hi5!) :D
Comment: thanks so much for the lovely atc and note! i love it when i can understand the "story" behind something and yours is beautiful...peace...happy swappage! xoxo
Comment: What a cute little bird. I love him. I love birds too and we have many feeding stations in our yard. One little hummingbird guarded the feeder all winter through snow and ice. He waited every morning for me to put out a fressh feeder that wasn't frozen. Fun to watch. Jan
Comment: Aw thanks so much for the sweet and lovely sheets (and stickers)! I loved your little message and I'm glad you shared your new stationaries with me :). Hope youre having a fantastic week and thanks again, xoxo.
Comment: Oh my goodness I've enough words and phrases for the next year. Thank you for giving me so many words to choose from and I'm pleased you enjoyed the process too!
Comment: omg, thank you so much!!!! i'd give extra <3 if i could. now that i've started my ATC collection, your picks are wonderful additions! i love owls too- let me know if you'd like to do a private owl atc swap!
Comment: This was a fun card to get and read about. I agree with you the hoop skirts were definately birdcage like. When i was a kid I had an old one along with some old clothes that had been my great grandmas... ( i am 45 so do the math) anyway... there was a pretty big hoop skirt among the dresses and i loved wearing it... fun dress up.
Comment: What an absolutely lovely ATC! Thank you so much for it and for the extra goodies you added. I love the layering technique you used with the card!
Comment: I really liked them... They were very pretty and I like how you packaged them. The designs were great and I like how you tied it to christianity.
Comment: Awesome Inchies!! Love them, you did a great job...I am not into using orange much myself, so mine were a challenge to make as well!! I appreciate the Dragonfly ATC as well...love it!! Oh and I agree with the number of Lauras on here...lol
Comment: Thank you for the ATC and the pretty papers. I am SO glad you sent the Pat the Bunny ATC! - it is perfect for this week because I had two little grandsons born within six days of each other. Your sweet ATC will be special to me because it will remind me of this week every time I flip through my collection of ATCS. Thank you also for the caring note you enclosed. I can tell that you are a lovely person and a "doer" of your faith and not just a "talker." Does that make sense? Thanks again for a great swap!
Comment: Hi LaLa,
Thanks for the extra special inchies. They are awesome! Love the stickers as well. Thanks for checking my profile. Take care, Kim :o)
Comment: I think I am sending just as many swaps to you as you are sending to me! LOL Thank you for the really neat inchies - I love them all, and I love the variety! And thanks for the extra Kawaii inchie and the little "L" notebook thingy! YAY!
Comment: Hi! Thank you so much for the great V-day inchies! They're great! Also, thank you for the extra bits you included. There's some great stuff there to use in future crafts so that's appreciated! Thx!
Comment: I agree, this is perfect!!! And I can't say enough how much I LOVE the stickers!!!!!! Thank you so much for such a wonderful, wonderful swap!!! YOU ROCK!!!
Comment: OOOOH I got some beautiful tangles in my mail today. All the twinchies are wonderful! Nice selection of patterns -- even a couple I haven't seen before. And your line work is very nice. Thanks for the extra two twinchies and the great zentangled ATC. <3<3<3
Comment: The only hand drawn card I've received from this website in about 3 or 4 months. She looks awesome too! Love the style you used for her, thank you tons for sending her my way! Hope to see you in other swaps of mine in the future. <3
Comment: La La my first ATC ever I was so excited. It will always hold a special place in my collection. The extras were so sweet of you. I hadn't thought to do that. Thank you for your kindness. Where do you get the little plastic sleeves I love them. Lois 63
Comment: These are adorable! I have just been introduced to kawaii and learning about all these characters. I grew up with the sanrio basic characters from the 80's, but never knew there were so many more. I do think we join the same swaps good to see you have good taste (or maybe I do) LOL. See ya in the next one. Thanks so much!
Comment: Hi Lauren, thanks for the lovely ATC! It's so lovely! The way you do the atc and the wordings to it are so true! Thank you! It made my day and reminded me of God's promise :) Thanks for the lovely rub-ons too! May you have a blessed and great day ahead!
Comment: The Zentangles are beautiful! I love the one done with color ink... very nice for your first try at color!
It's also nice to "meet" other people who use cloth. :)
Thanks so much!
Comment: Just realized I hadn't rated you on your lovely ATC! I'm really sorry, because it's really, really pretty. I actually never thought to use fabric on mine, if you can believe it, and I LOVE that you did, and that I could use it on another article if I wanted. (But I won't, because it might get ruined, and I want to have it for always!)
Comment: The envelope was ripped open - right across my address - and it pulled the front of the ATC sleeve back - I can't believe there was anything still in the envelope! Still in included were FOUR fantastic inchies - I love them! I love the variety that you came up with. Thanks too for the great mini memo sheets! Great job - thanks again!
Response: :O !!!!!!!! I am so glad they weren't lost! I even tape up the edges of the envie so they won't get ripped! The inchies were OK then?
Comment: I love Washington, D.C.! I'll be in your neck of the woods this summer, and I plan to see as much of the Smithsonian as possible. Any tips, ;D
Comment: I got your Rainbow Brite ATC today...thank you so much! Thank you for the extra little goodies too. =0) I love the smell of old books and the pages you sent were heavenly! LoL♥
Comment: TY so much for the lovely tree punch ATC! Love it, and how nice of you to send me an extra lovely ATC due to those nasty flakers! You are so sweet! I bet your sister loved the trees being framed - sounds awesome! I might be contacting you on that suggestion of a private swap, thanks for the offer as well! Happy Swapping! ;)
Comment: I received my ATC and I want to thank you so much for not only sending me the ATC but also all the goodies that came with it. It's beautiful and this is actually my 1st ATC that I have ever received! God bless you and I am blessed to call you my Sister in Christ! God bless you and your family... and it's so neat how you have family close by me and they have my last name too... Neat! :) I love that city!
Comment: I got both ATC's today lol. They both are pretty. I also love the glitter of the snow. I wish we would get snow its just freezing with nothing to show for it, bummer. Thanks for both, Love them!
Comment: Thank you very much for such a lovely card and all the extra goodies! It was great to arrive home today and find your envelope waiting for me :) So nice to get a letter too. Thanks :) Swappers don't get much greater than you :)
Cheers!
Sigrún
Comment: Thank you for both of the inchies--I also sent 2 to my partners! And in Reno......we get a lot of snow here! We may get, like 200 plus days of sunshine, but its still cold!!! It was 17 degrees this morning even with the sun coming up! BRRR.....

Comment: Great pics! Ive watched my turtle devour strawberries like that! LOL. Your hubby's shoes are the size of your forearm, I hope he makes up for having to wear them with good bowling scores. AND OMG those Amish statues are seriously frightening. I gotta get some tips on cool places to visit from you. Thanks for sharing.
