Comment: I don't know where to begin. Your ATC brought a lot of emotions up as I held this beautiful little piece of art in my hands. I am not exaggerating when I say I will cherish this forever. It really is just beautiful, and your note behind why you create just was something I so needed today. Thank you for this amazing art, Phe! It is going to be a very special reminder to me of a lot of things and will have a special place in my studio.
Response: I swore to myself earlier this year that I would be better about responding to rating comments. Yours, however, left me humbled and speechless. I'm so grateful that my piece found a loving and happy home with you - and I am honoured by everything you've written here.

Comment: Very creative and thanks for telling the steps you did to create this-I wish more swappers would do that. How exciting is it to live in Salem. Love the picture on the card-now I'll have to look up the history of it-thanks for sharing-Take care and stay safe!
Response: Thank you so much! I try to do that every time, especially when the process isn't necessarily self-evident. I've received a few swaps where I'd have LOVED to try the technique they used, but had no idea what they did. Also, Salem is absolutely wall-to-wall people right now. It will be through mid-November, but I have my safe-haven here at home, so I can escape the madness (or dive in!) whenever I need to. Thank you for such a lovely rating. xoxo

Comment: Thank you for the nice summery envelope, I appreciate it. A lot of the art pieces are either ripped off or the glue came off!
Response: Oh no! I am so, so sorry. I really appreciate the 5 and heart, but I will make another one for you. The PO is so finicky, I swear. A similar envelope (with the same glue) made it through un-harmed. I feel so bad about this. :( But thank you for such a lovely rating anyway and expect another envie in a week or so.

It feels like you picked the items off a wishlist I didn’t even know I had!

It seems wrong somehow, to discuss style, when such a heart-wrenching story is told. What a piece of writing. I have had it in my mind for two days now and I just don't know how to rate it. What can be said? You are brave and strong and I love you <3

Your tag is so cool...the liquid metal paint is a beautiful blue...I'm going to try the hot glue painting myself. I never even thought of doing something like that. It made a great rain effect on your tag. And the girl on the back is so sweet...I love her umbrella! Did you make the wired bead attached to the top?
Response: Of course. I felt that I really needed to let you know that I'm here. And I'm so glad to have met you through the group too. :) Thank you for such a wonderful rating/comment! I'm interested to hear your thoughts when you try the hot glue technique. :D And no, I didn't make the bead. I got a bunch of them at Michael's and just detached individual ones from the strand. xoxo

Comment: Thank you for sharing. I go back and forth on "cultural appropriation." I think that in certain cases a better phrase would be "cultural appreciation." If there is something from a cultural that benefits the masses, it shouldn't be limited to a few. Share the knowledge, share the wealth, share the magick. :)
Response: I definitely agree with your sentiment - although I prefer the term cultural sharing when someone from the culture has shared it with me (for instance, my BF is Mexican and Native and has shared much of his cultures with me - I didn't get into Day of the Dead until I learned, and was shown, it's deep significance - as one example). But thank you so much for the lovely rating and it's been a joy to share. xoxo

The papers are beautiful - as well as the TONS of scraps you sent as a special extra (I always feel like a kid in a candy store when I go through such small pieces...)! The glitter stickers are perfect for me and perhaps I use them in the next RM flip book... together with the tiny golden stars... :D The mail tag will be answered in a letter. :) The embellishments are so cute - even the tiniest shells stayed safe! Your natucal washi tapes are so pretty! Especially the ones with the gold. I love them! And I love the paper clips! I already used one of the speech balloons for a comic Pocket Letter! :D But the best goodie was your letter. It was so interesting to read it (especially about your German roots :) ).

LOL) that my letter evoked that kind of response in you...and I'm a fish by nature. I've swum in tame rivers, big lakes, little lakes, pools, ponds, and of course, the world's seas. I'm so happy you enjoyed this swap - and thank you so much for being part of this group! xoxo

Comment: Wow! I absolutely LOVE this blue crab ATC! The colors are delicious and the mixed media layering is fabulous. Thanks so much for the details on how you accomplished this -- I so appreciate learning from fellow artists. Cool postage stamp and beautiful sparkly greeting card (which is bound to become a background in a future Oceana swap! lol). Fabulous swap. Thanks again! <3<3<3 x 100
Response: I am so, so happy that you liked this crab. It was a challenge, and a lot of fun to create for you. Thank you so much for your rating! I'm so glad to have you participating in this group and this swap series! xoxo

Comment: Phe, I received your package today and love what you sent! The lid was beautiful and as I pulled the treasures out, I thought, "oh my! I hope my jar is half as wonderful to her as hers is to me!" I'm fascinated by the little wooden(?) seahorses, dolphins, and shells; and what a terrific bunch of charms you sent! I already have some ideas in mind for a project using some of those. Some of the large shells you sent are new to me; are they from a northeast coast? Most of mine are from the Gulf Coast, either found myself or purchased. I'm going to find out the names of the ones you sent so I can add them to my collection. The sea glass and that little bottle of beautiful stones are greatly appreciated, as were the other items you included. I hope we can do another swap again in the future; I LOVE doing whimsey jars!! Thank you again!
Response: Thank you so, so much for such a wonderful rating. I'm so happy that you loved everything that I sent - and yes! The shells are native to our local beaches. The flatter ones with ridged backs are oyster shells from Wollaston Beach, and the snail and cockle shells were gathered on Revere Beach. :) I'm so happy we did this swap, and thank you, again, for all of your kindness. xoxo

Comment: Thank you for your answers, Phe. I really enjoyed your honesty and expression of feelings and thoughts. I especially liked #3 and #6. I too feel similarly. Sometimes I question myself (if I'm good enough or "authentic" enough), compared to other witches I see on Instagram and social media. It's comforting for me to know, there are others that DO question aspects of their craft and don't just fall into it blindly or do everything perfectly by the book.

I was showing it to my mail lady and when it finally broke free from its package it exploded. All kinds of goodies went flying. I laughed like a schoolgirl. I showed the mail lady all the coolness that was in there and she really liked it. So you get 1,000 hearts from me and 1 from the mail lady. Thanks so much.
Response: Tami! I kind of laughed a lot when I read this rating...I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to laugh at your struggles...Much. :D I'm so glad that you loved everything though - and tell your mail lady that I really appreciate the heart from her too.

I was completely there with Siobhan (beautiful name) and experiencing everything with her... she's a real person, she's tough and professional, but still a human being. Her emotions are believeable, her actions are realistic. I like how the dialogue makes things clear without being on the nose. And the tension...you drag the reader through a whirlwind of suspense and danger, wanting to jump into the story and fight next to her! I love it. Would totally want to read more! <3

Comment: An absolutely fascinating and touching piece of oral history! It's voices like your Opa's that make history come real....I loved reading this and wish there was more. What stories could he have told! And isn't it fascinating that you can learn languages as children and then forget them as adults? My best friend moved to the US when we were fourteen, her younger sister and brother now can't speak Dutch if they wanted to, even though they were raised with it! This is such a fascinating piece, thank you so much for sharing this with me <3
Response: Thank you so much, Annejo. It was a good exercise for me, and even though Opa has been gone for decades, it brought me closer to him for a moment. I'm happy you appreciated it. xoxox

While I only had the one kiddo, my much younger sister and my kiddo come up with similar conversations. If you go again, try renting a golf cart. Cruising around a campground in a golf cart is way more fun than it sounds. Thanks so much for swapping!

Sometimes you read a piece of writing that changes you, your soul, that makes you "understand" something you didn't grasp before. This poem is like that!

Comment: What a beautiful, loving poem! Very touching! I love the examples you use for what the hands have done, because they show us a rich life, but also one of contrasts, of breaking down and building, of wounding and healing. I love the line "Oceans have slipped through them" so much! I do wonder if the poem would benefit from leaving out the first stanza, because then it would have more focus on the hands, and pack more of a punch. (Wth I am trying to give YOU advice on poetry??!)
Response: Thank you so, so much! And I absolutely want your advice, so perhaps when I go back to edit for future submissions, that might not be a bad idea about leaving the first stanza off. I'm happy to have been able to send to you again. Your words encourage and inspire. xoxoxo

My husband and I care for our 39 year old son who suffered a traumatic brain injury 20 years ago. We give all we can physically and emotionally and it can be exhausting and we often feel that we could really do with a spoon too. You expressed this physical and emotional need so well. Thank you.
Response: Pat, thank you so much for such a heartfelt and lovely rating. I'm so happy that I could touch you with what I wrote - and as I noted in my reply...I'm always here with a spoon when needed. Thank you again for a lovely swapping experience. And best to you and your family. xoxo

Comment: Gorgeous as always! I love the image of the drumbeat, because to me drumbeats always feel like heartbeats. And dancing is like living, the way we deal with people, sometimes we dance closely, sometimes we just pass by, but we all fit into a large pattern. And drumbeats and dancing are also things associated with the dead. A poem that makes you think for sure! Thank you for sharing once again <3
Response: Thank you so much, as always, Lieve Annejo. You definitely inspire me to keep writing - and to do better each time. I honestly wasn't 100% happy with the rhythm of this one - at least, not in the middle - but I save them all and perhaps one day I'll re-visit it when the muse hits again.

You build it up subtly, so that when a part of the big reveal comes, as a reader I am ready to believe! I also like the voice which is writing, not too formal, but a very believable professional guard. Someone with a lot of know-how, who speaks naturally with lots of color. And the ending, love that! I'm so curious now...:D <3
Response: Thank you so much! I'm curious about the ending too. Unfortunately, as I was writing it, the man I was picturing in the hospital bed narrating it perished and I was rather cross with him for doing so. Seriously, that really is how it played out in my head. And I sat there staring at the screen for a minute like, "WTF?" and decided apparently that's where the story wanted to end.

Response: It's amazing to me how you can feel that difference at the shore in the autumn. I couldn't pass up a way to insert that into the poem when it presented itself! And believe it or not, at the community garden by my house, they'll be dancing a Dark Morris in October to close the garden for the season.

Comment: First, Serious Writer Feedback, because you asked for it :D Your writing style is very dense, as in, your sentences almost all pack a huge punch. They're very high in information. Which makes me, as the reader, a little breathless. You might want to consider using shorter sentences, or to unpack your story using more sentences. The humor is great in the story, it works very well because of your eloquent writing, the contrast makes the funny extra fun! You don't overplay your hand, but keep a tight rein on your humor, which is wonderful. Bridey is a wonderful character - you characterize her very well in the first paragraphs. But when Moira comes in, she abruptly becomes very sweet. To me, that needs a few sentences here and there, some hints for the reader that under her goat exploding, tough hide, she is not all that hard. The last paragraph about her childhood conveys that very well, maybe that piece could be put somewhere earlier in the story. What I am not fond of, is the (use of parenthesis). It reads unsure. But you are sure, so shout it out, those sentences! I think the story is lovely, a very nice read, I'd love to read more about Bridey. I also think the story is very personal to you. As in, keeping yourself busy, making yourself tired, so that wild energy that is flowing is controlled. You are a very strong woman, controlling a torrent of creative and creating, formative energy. Which is what makes your writing so powerful, because you condense it to a few words, but those words brim with power. Thank you for sharing with me <3
Response: Thank you, thank you, and THANK YOU! This is the kind of feedback I need and love and I cannot thank you enough for it. xoxoxo

Comment: This poem is very special to me, because my grandfather was a fisherman on the North Sea, together with his eight brothers, and all the men in the family before them for hundreds of years. The sea is very special to my family. The poem is amazing, the words are all so powerful and there is great imagery. "The breath of love....", breath especially, great word. "seabirds following herring". It's very elegant, which makes the despair that to me is hidden in it, more bearable. A sad poem, very touching, I love it, it speaks to me <3
Response: A thousand more thank yous for such a well thought out commentary. I love this, and I love your bond with this too. xoxo

On the other side, I've been trying to achieve that "torn paper" look myself, but for me it looks like badly ripped paper instead of something awesome! Now excuse me while I stare at the pretty colors some more... ^_^
Response: I'm so, so happy you liked the effect. I was a little worried the front and back would be too dramatically different in style, but I'm so glad you saw what I did...thank you so much! xoxo

Comment: So beautiful....I read it aloud to myself to really let the words sink in. The naming of the ivory, china, crystal or gold is very strong, it tinkles and then crashes in the next sentence. The sacrificial lamb is also very strong, it made me think of the "scapegoat" in the Old Testament. The priest laid his hands on the goat and put all the sin of the people on it and then the goat went into the desert to die. Heartbreaking in a way, but also cleansing for the people. I guess that's where the blood for blood comes in. Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of writing and thank you for being you: a wonderful friend. I celebrate with you in quiet <3
Response: I felt your hand in celebrating quietly too. Thank YOU for your friendship and your beautifully crafted responses to my writing. You're an encouragement in a way I don't think you even understand...and for that, I couldn't be more grateful. xoxo

Water is so intriguing, who knows what sleeps on the bottom of ponds and lakes. I for sure wouldn't have gone back!

I think I loved the postcard more BEFORE reading the story lol! Though maybe now it will be good inspiration for a story ^_^

Comment: Your card arrived yesterday, but I was pretty busy so didn't rate right off... This was a fun swap to do. I am wondering if something fell off your card, because you wrote that you were going for a symmetrical look. There is a partial lady on the right side and nothing on the left, except maybe some glue? Just wondered! PS Oh I see, it was symmetrical before it was made into two cards..?
Response: Hi there and thanks for the rating. The symmetry was from the center out so it doesn't sound like anything fell off. There should be the partial Mucha girl, rays, a layer of silver splatter stamp, and edged with gold and copper ink all around. Thank you for the rating! xoxo

Comment: Phe, I'm positively speechless. Really. I have no idea how you did it! There's only a handful of people in the world who would get a present for me so perfectly right. I was sitting at my desk pondering about my exam preparations and the postman brought me your parcel and I just sat there for half an hour, staring at everything, putting the jumper on and off again. I'm in love with everything you sent! The hair bow, the scarf, the wonderful local goodies (I love locally made things so much!) ... and especially the jumper! I've been to Ireland last year and have been lurking around the jumpers contemplating whether I should spend that money. And I didn't and now this! WOW! And I will definitely write you back soon (funny: the paper is absolutely not too cute for me, in fact I just discovered sentimental circus and find it lovely!). Thanks a million times!!!
Response: Your rating has left me speechless. I'm so happy I was in point with this one. I had a great time shopping for you! My only regret is that you got the last jumper they had (i so wanted one for me too...and I looked, believe me!). :D. Thank you for such a wonderful rating. Xoxo

Comment: I wasn't going to say anything but since you asked: this isn't my favourite technique either. I really can't tell what you've stamped at all. Oh well, you have to try something to know if you like it or not. But very good attempt! I love the stamps you collages with. The Asian lady is so pretty. ETA: I don't know if you saw my comment on the swap but I put lots of tips there for getting a clearer stamped image. If you do go for it again, try some of my suggestions. One I didn't put there is to try a background stamp like text or texture that looks good when stamped incompletely. I deliberately stamp backgrounds on my mixed media projects incompletely on purpose all the time.
Response: Thank you so much for the positive feedback on this. Yeah, it's definitely not a technique I'd put into my regular rota, that's for sure. I may experiment with it at some point down the line again just to see if perhaps a better image or different inks might create a better result...but...probably not any time soon. And thank you for the compliments on the stamp choices. Some of them were really amazing so I'm glad I could share them with you.

And then I had this mystery piece of paper with a hula dancer and couldn't imagine how it made it thru the mail without postage or an envelope..... Haha. Then I went, "DUH" it is supposed to be together..... That was FUN!!!!!!! Thank you for the entertainment...:)

Comment: What fantastic things you found for the Astronomy swap -- thank you so much! I'm absolutely delighted with everything. My 8 year old grandson is going to be really impressed when I show him the astronaut ice cream -- and he and I will have great fun together with the night sky projection kit. I'm currently trying to interest him in science so this is perfect. And I love the necklace and purse -- and the night light in our hallway is really boring so I'm pleased to be able to transform it into a moon! Thank you very very much for everything!
Response: Wow - I can't believe how fast the package got there! That makes me really happy because I was so worried something would happen to it on the way...and it made it in what I can only consider record time. :D I'm also so, so happy to have made *you* happy. I hope that the night sky kit is enjoyed by all...and it sounds like the rest was as well. Thank you so much for hosting this. xoxo

I honestly did LOL at your note...begging me to PLEASE let you know if you did anything wrong with the tag...the only thing "wrong" is that you bundled it up so well that you had to spend $7.05 on postage!!! Here's the thing with art (in my humble opinion): the only way you can go wrong is to take the cheap-and-easy way out: slap a rubber stamp or a sticker onto a piece of paper and mail it off. I see no possibility of this ever becoming your m.o., dear Phe! Your attention to detail is simply wonderful.

Comment: Thanks so much for the card! I love what you did. And I really appreciate your description of your technique and the supplies you used. I don't have many ink pads, but I'm thinking I need to get some! Thanks again!
Response: You're welcome and thank you for the compliments! ♥ Honestly, when I signed up here back in September, I had one ink pad that I got on a whim. It takes time to build your craft stash *and* to play with the tools and see what works for you, what you like to do, etc. The way the lines on your ATC background turned out so unexpected to me! It was the first time I hadn't blended the ink on a background - but that was because it fit with the mechanical mind concept behind steampunk. Does that make sense? Anyway, I'm really happy that you enjoyed everything and hopefully you'll be inspired to create someting totally new to you too! xo

It's about 2.5 hrs away, so it's doable for weekends and such. I would love to live there. I don't think I'd enjoy the beach cold like you do, but any day at the beach is better than a day anywhere else...
Response: Thank you so, so much! After it was done, I was looking at it and thinking, "I know what this means...but she won't. I should probably make sure I offer some insight!" Oh, Myrtle Beach! I was there in February some years ago and it was so much fun and nice! I'd love to visiit it again sometime. You're quite lucky and I totally love the all you can eat seafood buffets.

Yes, you were a guinea pig maybe? LOL J/K I might check to see if there is a tutorial online though. That's how I've learned to use half of the stuff I have...but if it doesn't work for you, I'm sorry. I can always send something else in return.

Comment: Oh my gosh, Phe, I am so blown away and bowled over by what you sent!! The envie was just AMAZING!! But you included SO much more than I ever expected!! I feel so guilty for doing too little in my own mail art package now. For having been on radio silence for 17 years, you're back with a bang, baby! Thank you SOOOOOO much!!!
Response: Oh I am SO glad it made it intact. I was a little worried about the glitter paint sticking to something and mucking up - and I was so sad about the inked background not being really noticeable too. But hooray it got there! Thanks so much for the love and hearts. :D And really, the contents I felt kind of bad about. It wasn't as personalized as I'd wanted it to be based on what I read about you...but yayayay I hope you can use everything somehow. :D ♥

Comment: I received your letter yesterday but only got round to coming online today :) Thank you for the lovely letter, I love your writing..it's quite unique :) I also adored the card and the stickers (it's hard for us Brits to buy Halloween stickers over here as it's not a popular holiday) :) I shall be writing back to you as soon as I can :)
Response: That was so fast! I'm so glad you got it. Can't wait to hear back. :)
