Comment: Hahaha โ€žmade with love means I licked the spoon and kept using it โ€ž Oh Carroll, thank you so much for this fabulous envelope, I love the ephemera and cutouts you have chosen!!! Mail is clearly slowing down, christmas and lockdown I suppose, so it was just fab to find your envie!!! Have a fantastic weekend !! โœจ๐ŸŽ„
Response: I love that quote/truism, plus it's true for homecooking! I have thoroughly enoyed this advent series, it has helped with some of the stress I get.... Another reason the mail is slower is that in the US the mail is no longer going via air, it's all surface now- a big difference, Many thanks for the hearty and kind rating and for making these swaps!

Comment: Love this page, Carroll! The framing that you did with the washi tape came out really cool! Words do be tricky sometimes on these things....I don't force it either. I like to think if the recipient comes up with words they like, they can add 'em. Maybe it'll talk to them better than it did me. :)
Response: I secured the tape with several coats of gel medium, but they might still lift... You are right about the words, sometimes they just pop up later... Thanks for the kind and hearty!

Comment: The prompt said to use this pink/green color scheme, but Mamabird clearly read my profile to make me something more custom (black + rainbow + bugs) and that's way too specific to be a coincidence, so I give it a A+! The bug stamps look SO good on the metallic rainbow envelope! and the matching washi tape holding the atc in the card was a nice touch. Message me if the bug stamp was hand made, cause it's super cute!
Response: To be honest I think I may have confused swaps and missed the color scheme... I did read your preferences and am glad that it brought you some happy! That bug stamp is me made, I am so glad you liked it, and everything... many thanks for the very kind and hearty!

I love the theme you chose and all that you have sent to help me express it, and thanks for sending so much :-) I've been racking my brain and mulling over a long and growing list of themes for this swap, trying to settle on just one. You'd have thought I would have already settled on a topic by now, but then you'd be forgetting what a procrastinator I am. and I want to say how much I love the art you made on the envelope! I'm hanging it up in my room to enjoy often.
Response: I too was stymied by the need for a theme so i decided to just collect what came to me and looked good together till it all started shaping up of it's own accord..! Then I just had to name it... Glad you like the envelope, they are a big part of why I do swaps!

Comment: ALWAYS a treat to be on the receiving end of your art! Awww, and I appreciate that you saw the glitter disclaimer on my profile hahah, I should probably just take that "dislike" off and deal with it like a big girl...as long as I'm not getting covered by glitter I would survive. I love the collaged faces in the art book and I adore the extra face you sent, that's going straight in my planner, very cool. Thanks so much!
Response: I had painted the paper before cutting and folding and applied some glitter to one side with varnish... There was a little bit of glitter floating around so I didn't want to take the chance! But I have a little stash, so no problem...The extra face was done on the cut out bit...I have two more in progress, really enjoying making these... Thanks for your kind and hearty rating!

Wow this swap is really showing me how differently people can interpret the same thing, I listed off pet names as in sweet things I call people I like instead of animal names. (: Thank you for the really creative little look into your life, it was nice to read a bit more about you!
Response: Aww, I like your interpretation! It was a real work of sharing to put this swap together...'bigmamabird' is the pet name my #2 boy gave me as a wee young child, he was 'little peep' and we slept in nests..! This was a good swap, really doing some sharing.. Thanks for your great rating

He needs to finish the series instead of starting a new one which was definitely meh. And the tv show was weird. It wasn't terrible but they changed so much and it just felt strange. Have a great day, Nathan
Response: Yes the show was good only when not comparing to the books...I love Bob! I stopped reading them when my local library cut back the Sci fi section for renovations and then never reinstated it! They just put what they kept of the collection out with the general fiction....I will get back to it eventually. Thanks for the hearty rating.

Comment: Hi Carroll. Thanks for forwarding the story beginning. It's SO different than what I wrote and forwarded. This will be an interesting challenge to add a few sentences. I follow a fairy group on facebook and they always post the most enchanting photos. I'll have to go get some inspiration from them. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!
Response: Thanks Angie! You didn't have to give me a heart, though I appreciate the kindness. I think this series will be a very interesting journey, with the varying input.I hope coherence is applied a little bit at least! Happy Sunday evening to you!

Comment: Oh Carroll! How wonderful to receive your envelope in my mail. I really like the Deb Caletti quote, and since I was not familiar with her writing I had to Google her name. She seems to be an excellent writer for the young and all those who are meeting life anew. Love the Antidots tangle pattern harboring a Big bee too. And now 3 gorgeous BUG ATCs! Thank you :-) I have another bee sitting on the prettiest background of overlapping petals with teeny white dots outlining, a Striped Cucumber Beetle on an awesome geometric petal, and a Spotted Cucumber Beetle on a white 3D flower against a pink and white spotted sky. Bug Bonanza! I happen to like bugs (from a keep-my-distance perspective). And even the printed marbled paper you included as a backing is so pretty. I enjoyed reading your included note too. I Love the rare lighting storm like you described. I have also watched for hours from a reclining lawn chair the majesty of an entire sky filled with dancing lightning. There was no rain during the light show, only a cool summer breeze, maybe because this is the desert, I don't know. So thanks again for sending an awesome swap!
Response: Oh Grace, you sure give good rating! I am so glad you enjoyed it all so...That storm was pretty spooky , it even got to my husband who made sure the path to the basement door was clear... Thanks for the kind and hearty rating!

I'm in the midst of mango season here, which helps me deal with our too hot, too long So. Fla summer. Happy Jubilee, & thank you, thank you, thank you!
Response: That would be fun! I have a source of unused produce stickers...my local food co-op! The summers are the best here, I really don't know how people survive in places like Southern Fla.

Comment: My daughter was perplexed at the hysteric laughter that punctuated the opening of this excellent swap. Full points for ketchup packets, wet wipes (lemon scented!), sugar packet, fuzzy pompom, penny, and passive-aggressive comments about hearts -- also lovely papers you made and funky fairy -- but my favorites were of course the eagle ray, How much deeper would the ocean be fortune cookie slip, cross-stitched garden, longhorn steer, and penny squashed by a train. My daughter did not at all get the train-squashed penny, and left the room. Bwahahaha!
Response: Oh yeah!! (in true coo-laid form, mind!) I have a stash of pennies we laid on the tracks back behind that one house we lived in yonks ago(80's), but bleepifiknow where! Many thanks for the fun rating and the heart of course, which I totally deserved...

Comment: I feel like I've won the Big Mama Bird Lottery! Your splendid pocket page was also in my homecoming mail stack, but it has taken me a while to savor its contents. And ooh, what wonderful contents they are. From the happy green frog to the touchy-feely heartstrings card; the sweet bunting (now decorating my work space) to the pensive Frida -- everything so artfully created. The full page backing picture was worthy of a swap unto itself, but my most favorite elements are your "curious creature" stickers, your elephant stickers, and the fuck-this-shit ATC which both wowed me with its beauty & cracked me up. The sentiment could be the motto for my life! Thank you Carroll. I'll be savoring & using bits of this swap for a very long time. PS: Yes, the lilacs were abloom in abundance!
Response: Yay! So glad it's been an appreciated packet of creations! I do enjoy putting together these things, they are like birthday presents! Your feedback is a great return of energy. Our lilacs just began opening yesterday. Thanks for the kind and hearty rating!

(The bits you were tucked in were neat too, but the envelop itself was the best) thank you.

I'm so glad you salvaged the book from near-death & that you love it. I know I would. Your delightful rubber stamp images were the icing on the cake. Thank you so much!
Response: " It's a small world after all..!!" Amazing really! Thanks for that and the hearty rating..!

I'm a New Englander by birth so I remember making Black Cows when I was a kid. Never knew there was a white version. Thanks for the goodies too, especially the pic of the gals beside the boat. Sorry you're dealing with a bunch of crap. Life's a bitch & it's always having puppies! Hope things are on the upswing.
Response: Thanks for the hearty and kindd rating! I was introduced to black cows in the south where it was called a root beer float, a lovely woman named Billie came over with her five boys(!) lugging six packs and ice cream tubs! A fun memory...I hope life has gotten better?

Comment: Another beautiful card from you! You're the best MM artist I know of here on swap-bot. I LOVE your Bewitched theme and I loved that show too. I don't remember if Samantha HAD a cat but I know Serena turned INTO a cat at one point! Your card is gorgeous (no surprise there ;+)--the background is wonderful, the little gold stars set it off so nicely. And it has a cat! Nothing better for me! Thanks, Carroll; I love it when you're my sending partner.
Response: Well, I'll count that as a success...It's been so long since I have seen that show. Thanks for the hearty and kind rating!

Comment: Ok, Carroll....I will admit, I shrieked with delight when you were assigned my sending partner in this swap. I felt a bit guilty where I am the host, but we all know I don't have the ability to rig the outcome of partners. So, I quickly got over it and excitedly awaited your articulated doll bird. He's fabulous! I love the silent drama he possesses; almost a theatrical touch... phantom-like. I've displayed him with my first swap from you...a crow APC which I also adore. They will be in my collection always. I'm very grateful... thank you!
Response: Ah wonderful! They will like that. All my paper dolls seem so muted compared with my other work, I just go with it as who am I to argue?! Thanks for the lovely rating!

That's why I swap, if I wanted something like what I make, I'd just make my own stuff and sit around alone staring at it...NO FUN! The atlas envelope is genius and I always love the little extras which included another awesome textured background for a future ATC! Always a joy opening your swaps!

Comment: It did find me, safe and sound. Actually, it came while I was out of town for a few days and my friend who was taking care of my house and pets brought it in from the mailbox. She said it creeped her out when she put her hand in the box and felt it (the little strip of corrugated cardboard.) She told me that it was the creppiest postcard she had ever seen (and she loved it!) So...I guess it fit the bill just fine! It is extremely dark and eerie and I just love it, too. Thank you so much for sending it to me. :)
