Comment: Thank you so much for the adorable dangles! They are so cute. I also love all the cute extras you included. Thank you for a wonderful swap. I know what you mean about the heat. I can't handle it either. Thankfully we rarely have that kind of heat in San Diego. :-)
Comment: Thank you so much for the book pages and all the extra goodies you sent too! I just moved so all my crafting supplies are all packed and it is nice to have this bit to hold me over. How did you fold the pocket? It is so cool! Have a great week!
Comment: Denreen, thank you for the beautiful, stuffed folder. While it is still hot in Cincinnati (I grew up in Cleveland), here in CT, there are early signs of autumn . And I appreciate the fall colors in the tags and cards you sent. Cheers.
Comment: I loved your collage! You have a good eye for color. Thank you for sharing your talents! Thank you so much for all the little extras. You are so thoughtul.
Comment: Thank you so much for the washi and for all of the extras. I think they are all new to me washi. I like the sneakers. I love that note card with the pie too! It's funny! 🙂
Comment: 💗💗💗 Tons of Hearts! Thank you very much for the many awesome paper napkins and Cincinnati postcard. The envelope was open at the bottom, but I assume all arrived what you put inside. These will make beautiful paper napkin-covered envelopes!!
Comment: Your pocket was so lovely and intricate! I loved it so much! I am excited about all the goodies you sent as well, you sent so much and it’s all so cute, thank you so much. 🩷
Comment: What a delight to receive. The hedgehog note card so adorable, love the p/c (I cant believe you are on vacation for such a long time), farm animal stickers (perfect for me), memo sheet and a coin. I hope you enjoyed your time, in what is only my dreamland to visit. Maybe once we retire in 3 years. Waving hello from Pennsylvania. Thanks for a wonderful swap.
Comment: So fun to receive your note and goodies from Australia! I love it all, even the postmark and stamp on the envelope. I especially love the coin. Thank you! 😍
Comment: Thank you for the swap! I enjoyed reading your letter and appreciate the extras - especially love the postcard you included. I was surprised to see the Australia stamp/postmark on the envelope; how fun! I hope you had a great trip!
Comment: Wow, Australia! My best friend and her husband visited there once. They fell in love with Australia. Thank you so much for my beautifully wrapped gift. I’m going to be extra careful unwrapping it so I can use this paper again. Lol. I appreciate the extras, and I am in love with this mini-notecard. I will not be giving this to anyone. The texture of this card is magnificent.☺️
Comment: Thank you for the lovely little needle minder and the other little goodies! I have been sewing for decades and never used them till recently. They are awesome!😊❤️ Happy Swapping!
Comment: Yours came out so cute!! Thank you for a lovely swap - can't wait to put these in my next SB junk journal! And thank you for all the nice fillers, extras and postage stamps - much appreciated!
Comment: Thank you for the fun goodies. I totally agree that storms are better at the coast. I love storm watching from a beachfront hotel room, and most other people cancel due to storms so better rates and more privacy!
Comment: Your swap arrived in perfect timing (and before the long weekend!) and it made me so happy! I LOVE the pocket you made and the bookmark... and all of the extra pockets you added!! WOW! I love it all! <3 I hope that your weekend is wonderful! <3
Comment: Denise…your lap book is absolutely beautiful! I love it! I printed my materials out and my colors are slightly different. Again…I live it and thanks for the fun tuck-ins!

Comment: Thank you for the adorable journal. It sounds like you had a busy and fun April! The journals and little goodies you made are all so fun. I need to be more creative with my supplies! Hope your May is off to a good start.
Comment: Denise I received the resend and it is so pretty. I hate that your original package never made it to me but I do love what you resent in its place. Thank you also for the extra tag booklet and sticker goodies that you enclosed as well!
Comment: Thank you for a fantastic swap. I love the poems and stickers you added. They will go in my journal. The sunflower paper and ephemera and the booklet are so thoughtful. I can tell you read my profile. Thanks for being a great swap partner.
Comment: Thank you! I love everything about this package. I'm starting to get into papercraft myself after thinking I wasn't good at it for years. As it happens, my husband is from Cincinnati (Colraine) so I've been there a few times over the years but never in the winter.
Comment: I really love your design for this pocket! The way it opens kind of reminds me of a vanity mirror, y'know? And it's such a fun mix of cards and tags (I absolutely love this green card with pockets and the apple patterned paper) 🍎💜 Thank you for this adorable swap!
Comment: Thank you so much for the playing cards, I love the sharks! I apologize for the very late rating, I found a stack of mail just now that I failed to rate and I feel terrible, I’m so sorry!

Comment: I adore the recipe folder! Thank you for the sweet note and sharing the recipe from your SIL. We make a very, very similar sweet potato recipe--I use the canned yams too!
Comment: OMG every single one of your recipes sound awsome!!! I especially cannot wait to try out your sister's sweet potato casserole and your pumpkin pecan loaves. Btw I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your sister. I keep praying that one day cancer will be completely eradicated!
Comment: I love the tags you created! Including the words to the Christmas songs was very clever; I had not thought of that. And your notecard is so pretty! I love the sparkle when the sunlight hits it. Thanks for a great swap and best wishes to you!!!
Comment: Thank you for the great recipes! I’ve never tried your kind of biscuits, so I’m going to follow your recipe very soon! In the UK, biscuits are a type of dessert that’s similar to cookies.
Comment: Hello :-) Just got your swap and want to leave a big thank you here. You really spoiled me. Didn’t have anything from bath & bodywork’s for ages. I love everything.

Comment: Hi Denise! Thank you for the lovely card, letter and extras! My decorating has dwindled over the years but I love my tree. We just put it up after Thanksgiving <3 I collect snowmen so there are tons of those ornaments on the tree that it might as well be called my "Snowman" tree LOL. I hope you have the most amazing Holiday Season! How exciting to see your daughter!

Comment: Greetings, Denise! Thank you for the holiday card and tea! What a festive package - it is greatly appreciated. I am so glad your family will be together after three long years. That would be so challenging. My children are both very young, so I can't even begin to imagine being away from them for so long. I hope your holiday is very special!

Comment: Hello Denise! I received your swap today. Which came in one of those Postal envelopes. It was ripped right in half. Surprisingly, Two blank recipe cards were in the other half and the Broccoli cornbread recipe. I hope these were the only items, that were in the envelope. If there is something missing, heaven only knows where it ended up at and if there was something, no need to resend anything. But Thank you very much, for the recipe cards and the yummy recipe. I love Cornbread, yum yum!
Comment: Thank you for 2 recipe cards. The tea will be good tomorrow as I find RELAXFUL FRIDAY! (yay) I will defiantly try the Broccoli Cornbread muffins soon.
