Comment: Diane, thank you for your absolutely beautiful watercolor hearts Valentine cards! It is definitely one of the best handmade Valentine cards I have received this year. It is almost like an original version of Hallmark card (guess some of them start off as a real hand-painted or drawn art before they get copied and printed). I won't call myself an experienced card maker... rather, just someone who loves making cards and has made tons of them 😂. Happy swapping!
Response: I was getting worried about the transit time - thanks for your patience and the very kind comment. I had a lot of fun making it, but I realized I needed to get better brushes for watercolors so I picked up some at HL while they were on sale last week. So if we swap again, hopefully I'll have improved!

Comment: Hello, you may have sent it two weeks ago but I just got it today. When you make envies like the one you made sometimes they are non-machinable and have to be handled by people in each office it goes through. It does have a date stamp of September 1 and I can tell it didn't get machined because there is no bar code. Want you to know that I absolutely love the envie. I was really so thrilled when I took it out of the mailbox, very cool image of houses! I also love the tag, you did wonderful work. I have not used mica sprays. I love how you layered colors and the images. Thank you for a wonderful swap! I went to the apple festival and got some apples and I saw the donuts but didn't get one. Everything is a bit scary around here right now because of Hurricane Florence. I tried three gas stations before I was able to get gas and then was limited to 10 gallons. Stopped at the store and there was NO bread on the shelves.
Response: I had a mail art envelope labeled "undeliverable" last week, so I was getting worried about the one I sent to you. I'm glad it got there and you liked it. :) Yes, the NC situation is scary! I have family in your town and I'm emailing them tonight, to make sure they're set for the onslaught of rain.

Comment: Hi Diane! Your glue and distress ink tag turned out great! I love butterflies so this was just my thing. I had not ever tried this technique either and made a couple of stabs at it before I got one I was happy with. I don't have the kind of glue recommended either so just used my white Scotch craft glue, and it seemed to work okay. It was pretty quick and easy (discounting the drying time) so I will most likely try it again! Thanks for a fun swap - Laurie

Comment: What a cute ATC, Diane. You did a great job with the technique. I have been wondering how many attempts I'm going to need to get anywhere near the effect.. At least now I've seen one and that may make it easier. I had to ask Jackie for more instructions as the whole process didn't seem to make sense to me at first. With her extra instructions and your sample, maybe I can do it! Have a great weekend!
Response: I did a lot of trial runs, with different stamps. It's not an easy technique to do, because of the wood or acrylic block behind the stamp.

Comment: Thank you for the ATC & note. I really like the contrast of the colored background and the black and white Zentagle elements. As a side note, I didn't get as much texture as I expected with my ATC, either. I even tried it again for a postcard and it was still pretty subtle.
Response: Yeah, I think I expected something like you'd get from texture paste. But the great thing about these swaps is how much I learn about various art mediums! Thanks for the nice comment and rating.

Comment: Welcome to our little family of walkers ! thank you so much for your walk I loved it. I had to call my son to come see the cactus field and was very envious of your lovely blue sky :)
Response: That cactus field was after I walked through a dried up riverbed full of burdocks! It had the potential to be a very prickly hike. LOL. And, yes, one of the things I love best about my state is the BIG SKY. Thanks for the kind rating. :)

Comment: thank you for the honest read...and the cool website link...did your family create this site? :)
Response: No, the entire farm was purchased by the state of NJ a few years ago, to be preserved as natural acreage. The house is rented, I believe, by the people who run the Heirloom Seeds site.

I just love them and the cards too!
