Response: Wrong! My favorite word was "chocolate", not "FANTASTIC"! LOL I'm so glad you liked the ATC.

Response: Sorry it was late. It was ready to go, I thought. Then I started worrying it wouldn't survive the Post Office without a backing. So I had to rework it a bit. I loved this theme, it was a real creative challenge to use anything BUT paper!

Response: Glad you liked it!

Response: Thank you, you are too kind. Wish you could see the fantastic cards folks sent to me. We have some truly talented folks joining the ATC swaps!

Response: Whew, you liked it. I have to admit, I struggled a bit with this theme. Found out I know much less about Victorian times than I realized. That's what makes the ATC swaps fun, the challenging themes folks come up with.

Response: Whenever someone says "I would give you more than one heart", they have given more than one heart. I'm glad you liked tea and stuff, the tea swaps are among my favorite swaps!

Response: You're very welcome. So glad you liked the card, I was hoping you'd "get" what it was about. And you did, yay!! :)

Response: I had fun making it. I love Van Gogh and once you've seen any of his paintings in person, you just never forget! Happy ATC-ing on Swap-Bot!

Response: I always mean to just send what the swap asks for, but then I start thinking how pitiful the little pile looks and try to find something to make it more :) If you need a good recipe to try out the teapot cookie cutter, I have the world's best rolled cookie recipe - my mom's. :) As for the extra heart, you just did give me one ;)

Response: My itty bitty artist baby doll likes to sleep in a tiny teacup, too! Glad one of your fairies will have a new home :) My baby found a tiny teacup and saucer shaped like cabbage leaves -- perfect for him. Glad I made you feel special -- you are, you know! So many nice people inhabit Swap-bot :)

Response: Now I know how to respond, I will LOL. You are most welcome. Wasn't that a fun theme for an ATC? Some just about make themselves and that's always fun!

Response: You are very welcome! Your profile said you liked dogs and he was feeling a bit intimidated here by all the cat figurines LOL.

Response: You are too kind! It was a fun theme to try and create something for -- without stopping to eat some ice cream every five minutes!

Response: I ended up eating my way through a half gallon carton. Couldn't stop thinking "ice cream".

Response: What a nice thing to say! I sure hope we get partnered up again!

Response: You are sooo kind. Well, duh! It's right there as part of your name :)

Response: Speechless -- me, too! As for giving a million hearts, you did :) Soooo glad you liked it. You did like it, didin't you? :) BTW, you are most welcome!

Response: Glad you liked the shirt, it's from my part of the country. We're just a little bit "country" here :) It's funny your boyfriend likes the green shirt, I was kind of thinking one for you, one for a friend! How did he know?! :) Glad you liked everything, it was going to be more but the postage is so high now, takes a lot of fun out of international swaps :(

Response: Ah, you made my day! You even liked the envelope :)

Response: This swap had a great theme, I think. The cards just about made themselves, they were sooo much fun to make!

Response: It's a great place to visit. The pterodactyls are actually flying up overhead - kids love it! There's also a butterfly room next to the cafeteria, you watch them while you munch your food! Glad I got to share it with you. Ever in Raleigh NC, it's worth a look :)

Response: I suspect most of us "crafty" folks are only too happy to share our snips of paper and pictures! (They do tend to pile up rather fast...) :)

Response: So glad you liked my little card. It was so much fun making it!

Response: My heart was lifted by YOUR heart :) Thanks for the kind comment re my ATC. I try!

Response: I was thinking of my mother and it just kind of made itself - the very best cards seem to get made that way, for me anyway! :)

Response: I think I still tend to be a bit too literal-minded - brown paper, brown paper bag LOL! I promise to get more artistic, one of these days! :)
