About Me

ghosty

Well, it looks like it's my turn to add the "I Always Send Out My Swaps" note to my profile. I do always send out my swaps. I don't give less than a 5 rating without communicating with my partner, please give me the same courtesy. Those of us who've been swapping for awhile realize that mail occassionally goes astray through no fault of our own.

For postcard swaps, I prefer mine sent stamped and 'naked' (not in an envelope), please. I love all kinds of postcards!

Comment: Eep! I totally accidentally gave your rating to one of my other partners! What drugs am I taking, you may ask? Sadly, none, so I don't even have any excuses! Your card is totally awesome and makes me super homesick for the fabulous West Coast which I don't even really have a reason to return to much anymore, as my parents have now moved out East.... Anyway, thanks for cluing me in to my alarming lack of typing in the right box!
Response: No problem at all ... I totally understand! :D I'm just glad it arrived and that you enjoyed it.

Comment: Oh my goodness!! :-) The garland you created for me is so cute. Mere words do not express how blown away I am by your work. The garland in it's self is fantastic. but the detail in each bottle cap (that you created for it) is beyond awesome. I love this garland!! I have already hung it up in my foyer.....and I shall treasure it for years to come. Hope your day has been a beautiful one.
Response: Wow, the mail sure went FAST! I'm so glad you are enjoying the garland! I wasn't sure if it would work but I love the K&Company halloween things. Thank you for the kind words and for hosting such a super swap!! :D

Response: Yeah, I'm so glad that you like them! I had a lot of fun with all of them, especially the witchy ones. :D I used EnviroTex Lite on them. I love it but I tend to be a bit messy with it.

I have started a discussion on the Handmade Postcard Club forum about the possibility of an interim group since the founder, @TeraBACat hasn't logged on in so long. I hope you will post your thoughts.

And newbies with itchy rating fingers make me nuts.

DeAnne, I am happy you liked my watercolor postcard. It is something I enjoy. It was very thoughtful of you to send me such a nice post card thanking me. The poem is great. My best, Joanne

Thank you for the cool postcard, I'm glad that you like the round dotee, it was harder than I thought it would be....but I thought she came out cute :)
