Just to be sure:

The entire song lyrics or just a part of it we really like?

I am such a lyrics junkie. This sounds like a lot of fun.

would anyone have a problem with a handmade postcard?? I was in create mode and didnt even think about using ready-made post cards.. I have cut and pasted, decopaged, and stamped 2 already.. tell me what you think..

I'm UK too and I think Homemade postcards would be great...might need them as an option myself if I cannot find 5 I like locally! :0)

Mine went out today. I received one from Shana already. Thanks I love it. How do I post feedback? I can't find the link.

Hey to suttonjp! Really nice card...I like how you put the lyrics on the billboard on the front--something I never would have thought of! Plus, I like the words as well. Kinda speaking right to me at the moment :) Thanks!

Thanks to Joanna across the pond for the colorful, large and lovely art card with the Fleetwood Mac lyrics! Used to be one of my favorites many moons ago...brings back a bunch of memories :) Thanks! ~~Renae :)

Shana I love the post card you sent, the picture was really neat and loved the lyrics. And Joel Sutton just wanted to say that it was me who sent you the many Moor lyrics, i musta forgot to put my name....sry. Hope you like it any way.

suttonjp 09/12/2006 #

Thanks again Kassandra, I love black and white photography and have always admired Mapplethorpe's flowers.

Thanks, also, to Jack's Mom for the great bookcrossing postcard. I'm not a bookcrosser, but my wife has been for a few years now.

Thanks to MELANIE and VMLAY for cool postcards...quite into Ani de franco Melanie...and Marie, totally agree with those lyrics, a lesson I seem to continuously learn! thank you. Guess I won't be getting a 5th card from anyone, did notice one person did not send...must be my 5th card :-(

suttonjp 09/13/2006 #

It may stil be early Alex. I've only recieved 2 myself, but I have high hopes. Joel

Got another card today. Thanks to Joanna for the colorful card with the Fleetwood Mac lyrics. (I love the doodles on the back). (2 more to go!)

suttonjp 09/30/2006 #

Got another card today! No name on it, but I believe it was from Jill S. The lyrics were from the Jimmy Cliff song, "I can see clearly now;" one of my all-time favorites. I was listening to it in the car just this week! Thanks so much!

alex 10/ 4/2006 #

Got a postcard today, also with Jimmy Cliff lyrics on, but no name, so maybe off Jill S too? Well, thank you anyway, whoeverit was from! :-)

I can see clearly now the rain is gone. But I can't thank the sender personally, so I do so here publicly ;) Thank you!
