Comment: Thanks for the nice stuff.

Comment: We were in contact and you said you were doing another journal and would send me it on Jan. 15 and it's been plenty of time if you had sent it out. It seems that other swaps you have been in have had no problems getting to their destination, but the one that was due in November to me is still an issue.

I really love everything you sent. I appreciate you really reading my profile to find the best things. I don't know what my favorite item was.....I guess the paintbrushes & small paint canvas. I really do want to paint more, and this will give me some encouragement. Thanks again. Wish I could give you 10 hearts!!!!

Comment: Good for you!!! I hope everything really works out for you, and that you really enjoy your new line of work. It really sounds creative, exciting, and rewarding. I believe it really will work out for you in the end. What you wrote really has inspired me to not waste time on a career that I just do not feel passionate about. I am going to search for something I will love doing every day. Also, thanks so much for the handmade tag, it's adorable!

Comment: Lots of YUMMY STUFF! the colors and textures are purrrrftect! Thank you

Comment: Thank you for your random mail art. You chose a nice variety of collage goodies, did you make those papers yourself? And thank you for the ribbon you enclosed. I wish it would have been a little art in it tho, but I like all you have sent.

Comment: Thank you so much for the great tag book and for all of the delightful extras!

Comment: Thank you, Kathleen! I really enjoyed reading your list. One of them was buying "more" typewriters. Do you already have several? Some of ours were really similar, especially that we want to learn more languages and travel. Thanks for sharing these with me. Some of yours might join my list!

Comment: Wowie wow wow my daughter said shen she opened the package. She loved everything! This was a very special package.

Comment: Hi Kathleen, you wouldnt belive me. I found your envelope with letter in it. I am so ashamed do do the rating such long time after the sending. I wanted to say that it was one of the best letter I ever read. I dont know if you would stil like to hear from me, but I personally would write you /soon:)/, thank you for the tea as well:)))

Comment: Thank you for the great cupcake cards!!! I love the handmade paper!!! Thank you also for all of the cute extras..."Heart" for you!!!

Comment: thank you it was very interesting to read

Comment: What a lovely letter! It feels like I really got to know you through it. Thank you for the cutie kawaii goodies too!

Comment: Thank you for the letter, Kathleen. I loved the ending about the Toni perm! Oh, if we really could have received a letter from the future. Knittinglikecrazy (Teresa)

Comment: 5/16- I finally received a package. Although it was a lovely package, I am still going to mark you down for the late send, twice. Had you proactively communicated and sent on time I would have considered a 5. 5/7- I rarely do this, but quite frankly I am frustrated with your communication and still no package. After seeing that you marked sent the day after the send by date, I had to contact you on 4/21 to let you know the package did not arrive. You asked to give it a little more time. On 4/30 I followed up again to let you know still nothing received. You said you would resend. It has been a week and no communication about a resend. If this was your first resend or even 2nd or 3rd I might give you the benefit of the doubt. But quite frankly this is your 5th "resend" this year. That's a very, very high number and coupled with no communication generated by you, it does make me wonder. But I will change if/when I receive a package.

Comment: Your letter is lovely. Thank you very much for the handmade paper. I will definately use it in one of my projects :)

Comment: Loved it. So inspiring!

Comment: Not exactly the items from my wishlist but I still liked everything, especially the Anne Taintor notebook. Thanks for the great package of goodies. Updating to add a heart on 4/23 I keep thinking about this swap and I've decided to follow my heart and give you a heart. :) I apologize for not doing so in the first place but I was getting razzed by a few people for not rating "exactly to swap requirements". Whether the items you sent were on my swap wishlist or not, they are on my profile wishlist and I was more than delighted when I opened the package to find them. (I forgot to mention the Smurf journal before but that was AWESOME!!!)Not to mention this was a resend, so you went above and beyond and I really appreciate it.

Comment: Thanks a lot

 

Comment: I love the newsletter format!!

Comment: loved your letter and your learnings. thank you :)and also thank you for the zine. a good read

Comment: Thanks so much for the vintage goodness. Take care.

Comment: Hope to travel the world some day I think I'll have to make Norway and Mt Ulriken one of my stops. I like the way you presented it too. I thought someone had sent me a newspaper clipping by mistake until I began to read it.

Comment: Mr. Ulriken sounds like a really wonderful ramble ... I'd love to do it some day. Ah, but when? Thanks for the info about it.

Comment: Congradulations on all the good stuff going on in our life right now -- I can understand skipping over the difficult stuff writing to a stranger but I can add in enough to think you've paid your dues and this new turn of events is deserved and you'll be smart enough to really appriciate the happiness you now have. Thanks for sharing you story.

Comment: Thank you so much for sharing your memories with me and for the bautiful handmade paper! :) Love it!

Comment: THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR MEMORIES WITH ME...

Comment: thank you so much for the extras! i am looking forward to reading your story as soon as the little one sleeps. -kris

Comment: Fascinating how a person finds her place through trial and error - I just had another partner write of working with people in poverty -- what a burden for them and what a burden for those of you trying so hard to help! And thanks for the extras in the envelope!

Comment: Thank you for sharing some of your memories, and for the extras you sent. I'm so happy your story is happy now :)

Comment: I LOVE the Anne Taintor postcard. Thank you for sharing the zine with me as well. As for your question about the other swap... unfortunately it's still MIA. This one was great though and gives me something to look forward to.

Comment: This was a fun zine. Thanks!

Comment: I love your book-like format, and the extra goodies are lovely (esp. the map, yay!). Thanks!

Comment: Thanks for resending - that's the first thing that's ever gotten lost in the mail and I'm sad you had to re-write that long letter! :O( I'm so glad you did though, it was such a lovely package to get in the mail! I love all the natural papers and cute kawaii stationary - thank for sending those along with your beautiful letter - you've got incredible penmanship! I'll send off a letter your way soon. ~Artsyfartsy

Comment: thanks for the card/letter. i loved the way you put it together! very cute! thanks again!

 

Comment: Great! Thanks so much for the stamps!

Comment: I love your colorful, creative winter zine. The variety of art, photos and papers used are exactly the kinds that really appeal to me. And the different kinds of things you included - craft/gift idea, gingerbread recipe - really made it not only interesting and fun, but useful, too. Thanks also for the blank notecard! I love blue sky and fluffy cloud motif. :)

Comment: What an amazing little 'zine! I love the homemade paper too. I just made some myself with my craft group, but we didn't get such vibrant color. Thank you! Carol

Comment: Thank you for the beautiful cards.

Comment: What a nice package! Interesting bookmarks, book plates, label and pin as well as a key holder from the Richmond Public Library! But it is the postcard about the Toronto Public Library Collection exhibit that I found fascinating. It really makes me want to plan a visit there! Thanks for sharing (and swapping via swap-bot!)

Comment: Loved everything! Thanks!

Comment: AMAZING!!! I loved every single thing! Especially the pin-ups and turquoise necklace! ahh!! xoxox

Comment: What a great letter and such fun "tuck-ins"! I wish I had some of that apple crumble! YUM!

Comment: Wow! What a great swap and letter! You are really OBSESSED with paper these days, huh? Thank you so much for the bits and pieces, too-- I'm also a paper crafter, though not nearly as much as you! WOW! Hahahah.... I got the *other* letter swap from you (which hit two birds-- something happy, and your obsession), and then I got your new obsession: food politics! I'm not thinking of becoming a vegan, but I'd give up chicken for health reasons if I could (the way chickens are raised is pretty much the recipe for incubating a superflu). Best wishes!

Comment: Wooo Canada mail is slow and then so was I a bit getting to this. Everything finished coming at the beginning of this week. Thanks so much, your life sounds so interesting and full. I'm not sure where the masked people fit my profile or the bar one *gulp* but the Kellar postcard is Super Awesome! :)
