Comment: I have to give you a heart because it looks very much like the one I made. Too funny! But yours is so clever, that makes it worth two hearts. (And yes, it's sturdy!) Take a look at my Flickr page to see mine. Thank you for the extras. The stress magnet will go on my refrigerator and I will have to keep my girls from stealing it. Words of wisdom for anyone. BTW: I just cut the self stick stamps with the envie attached. It kind of frames the stamp. I use them like that after ruining so many trying to get them off the paper. Just a thought.

Comment: Thank you for the ATC and all the extras. Love the extras. I did receive the pkg on Friday as it was starting to snow. We got 20 inches. Everything is covered with ice today. I don't think the Snowmens will melt for a few days/weeks!! LOL!

Comment: Sorry about the rating but the postmark clearly said 3 March On second thoughts, my rating was a bit petty so have changed it to a 5

Comment: I received your ATC'S and I have to be totally honest, I was v.disapointed in the quality and standard of the ATC's. They were not like any I have ever received before. They were flimsy, not cut straight and looked like it took you 2mins to make them all and were a very basic standard. I showed them to 2 friends who also do ATC's to make sure I wasn't being unfair and they totally agreed too. Iim a very fair person and have done many ATC swaps and I am just v.disapointed :( PLEASE NOTE: IMPORTANT!! I am not rating whether or not I liked the ATC's you made, its the quality and standard I am rating on so your quote is not necessary. If you didnt have time to make them to the requirements then you should not have joined this swap.
Response: To quote Oscar Wilde: "Technique is really personality. That is the reason why the artist cannot teach it, why the pupil cannot learn it, and why the aesthetic critic can understand it. To the great poet, there is only one method of music -- his own. To the great painter, there is only one manner of painting -- that which he himself employs. The aesthetic critic, and the aesthetic critic alone, can appreciate all forms and all modes. It is to him that Art makes her appeal."

Comment: Ann, I love all 3 of the atcs you sent. It's funny, I was thinking stamps, but the host only said that blackbirds must be the central theme. I'm so pleased that I got such different atcs from what I expected. I think the pressed and blackened birds are my favorite. they are so sweet sitting on the wire. It is easy to get carried away and make extra, isn't it?! Happy swapping!!!

Did my letter ever reach you?
illeander on Apr 8, 2009:

Sorry for not sending the blackbird swap yet. I feel like I let you down, but I will send it soon!
shfacey on Mar 30, 2009:

Thank you for joining my 4 Seasons ATC swap. I cannot believe why that person rated you a 3. 2 days late and she thinks it deserves a 3. Ridiculous.
