Comment: Hello! I LOVE the ATCs you included! Gorgeous. I think my fave is the "Moulin Rouge"!

Comment: Thank you!! I especially like the Autumn fairy one.

Comment: These were great ATC’s. Please include a note that says the name of the swap. The mail was very mysterious. ;)

Comment: Thanks for the postcard!. I really like the train on the card! :) Good luck!

Comment: Wow I absolutely loved your ATC and all the extra goodies, thank you so much! Wasp is fun to say 🤣

 

Comment: What a fun swap! Thanks for hosting! And thank you so much for the wonderful surprise package of goodies you sent!! Do I PM you with what I think is the lie?

Comment: Thank you for the very funny postcard with the man barbequing and the bear. It gave me quite a laugh.

Comment: What an amazing parcel!!! Words cannot express how much I appreciate what you have sent for my children. I am very touched by your generousity!!! Thank you so so much for EVERYTHING!

Comment: Bwahahahaha! What an awesome note/PC!! I wish mine had been that awesome and that I could have seen the face of the postal staff reading what you wrote:) thank-you!!

Comment: Hi Julie, thanks so much for the gorgeous card. All three of those are so outrageous that I can't decide which is true or not...hmmm, are you the one that burnt Gene Simmons with a cigarette? :)

Comment: Very funny, but did you know that back in the day the "colored" bathrooms where just that, a board out behind the building with holes. I read that in a book recently. Funny card, but said about real history.

Comment: Thank you, great postcard!

Comment: I loved the items you sent. I thought it was really neat how you included little messages with each item.

Comment: This was an awesome little package! The handmade envelope was really cool and I love all of the ATCs you sent! Thank you! Also, one of my friends in high school loved the movie Whale Rider so I have seen it...and enjoyed it! :)

Comment: Thanks so much for allllll the goodies! It totally shocked me on how much you sent! & it wasn't trash at all. :) thanks, hun! :)

Comment: I love the birds on both of the cards. The vintage is very pretty. I am learning a lot about this ATC thing also. The extra goodies are very nice and I am sure there will be a swap that will fit these. We have a pair of Grosbeak's that have been coming to our water supply for birds. They are so pretty. We don't see those that often in TN. Have a happy day.

Comment: ROFLMAO love it. The thought of me at the Hefner Mansion is awesome! :)

Comment: Wow, you went over with it. It was all so amazing! Thank you! :D

Comment: I love the bathroom story. It reminded me of a Jackass episode where he did go to a home improvement store and "test" the display toilets. You made me crack up!

Comment: Thank you for the Cayman card Carolynne

Comment: Thanks for the great card!

Comment: Thank you for the Penguin card, I am so jealous of your travels.

 

Comment: Thanks for the awesome New Zealand card and I'm glad you got to visit! I have tentative plans to go to Montana this summer too! Yellowstone, though! Hope your trip goes well!

 

Comment: NICE PC

Comment: thank you for the new Zealand postcard... I think Africa would be a great place to visit.

Comment: cute lizard! i am jealous you have been to austrailia and NZ AND that you are going to glacier park! i need to get out more! :0) thanks for sharing your aussie cards.

Comment: Thanks for the awesome bird PC! I agree, kiwis are a bit ugly, but in an endearing kind of way.

Comment: Thanks!!

Comment: Thank you for all the cards, stamps and recipies, I will try somes. But what is the ugly card???? Hello Julie, today I received the card, yesterday the envelope. Thank you for the card, it is not so ugly. I couldn't find yesterday the ugly card, now I understand.

Comment: WOW what a wonderful surprise in my mailbox today! You were so generous with the extras, and you paid careful attention to my profile. I love everything you sent! Thank you x10!

Comment: Great postcard! I love the image, and would love to see the Philippines someday! Have a great trip to New Zealand this fall!

Comment: OK, my dear, prepare to read a novel!! First of all, the envelope was already screaming 'you've got awesome mail', it fit so nicely with the swap theme and my preferences for anything ethnic ^.^ Then, a beautiful notecard and a wonderful note, I so love reading about my partners and what inspired them to make something ^.^ One of the ATCs would have been totally heart-worthy, but then you even sent two ^0^ I loved how you put things together, the colours and the material (I wouldn't even get the idea to work with sand or to arrange glitter in that way! inspiring!) and I totally can relate to that fascination with people and peoples ^.^ I wish you a splendid time with the Maori! I've seen the Wodaabe on TV, it was awkward to see how the men presented themselves ^.^ But aren't we all the most beautiful people on earth? ^.^ I loved the hilarious other notecard too and the other sheets totally cracked me up ^0^ I'm definitely going to use them! The tea smells so amazingly, what a treat! And OMG, you DID send me MAURA TIERNEY wrapped as a present ^0^ I have no words... I have a magnetic board on my desk and there she'll find a new home ^.^ Thank you soooooo much! If there was a 'million hearts' option, you'd get it from me... You're one of the inspiring persons who make swapbot a Happy place (sorry about the pun ^.^)!! Watch out for alligators when swimming though (loved the PC too)!!

Comment: Oh my, we are so alike, you are absolutely right! By the time I got done reading your letter I was wondering if we were long lost sisters. I have a sister who lived in Piggot Arkansas by the way so the letterhead was absolutely amazing. And the brooch, beautiful. As to the ATC. Please, never ever never say that you don't work well with altered art. It is simply, beautifully perfect and I am going to display it on my bookshelves next to my writing desk. Thank you ever so much for everything.

 

Comment: loved it - thank you!! xox ♥

Comment: Was the Gene Simmons thing not the truth?

Comment: It is good to meet another E-!

Comment: Lots of hearts! I was over-excited when I opened your fat envelope! E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G is beautifuuul! Thank youuu! I'm gonna do magical things with all of it!

Comment: What can I say? I loved the swaps and the cook book. You out did yourself..

Comment: Thankyou for the three envelopes with the letter pieces and story and for the buttons and ect. This was a fun swap. :)---(A friendly FYI--when sending buttons, you should put them in a separate bag or envelope for security. That way they cannot puncture the envelope and fall out and they will not damage the paper goods inside the envelope. A little tape on the main envelope helps as well. A trip through the mail can be wild. :)

Comment: Oh wow! You really spoiled me with all the wonderful paper goodies!

Comment: Ahahaha! I had to read that envie 4 times before I gave up and opened it to see what in the world this was ;P I was expecting crazy postcards, not crazy envies! Oh man, this totally made my day. Thank you! EDIT: Where did the heart go first time I rated this?! Hmf. I loved it, don't worry =)

Comment: WOW, you are an OVERACHIEVER!!! I am, like, totally spoiled for all other swappers now! What an incredible pile of awesomeness! And yes, you get extra credit for a Florida PC I do not have AND will not send away! I can only give you a heart but if I could also give you a liver or kidney I sure would! Yay You! :OD

Comment: I don't how a takeaway menu swap can be a 5 and a heart, but you managed it! I really loved your swap, it was above and beyond what I expected!!! I practically want to drive down to Florida tonight and try this seafood restaurant. Prices are awesome, and items are unique - this will be on my things to do on my next Florida trip for sure. Thank you for the extra special Paris goodies too - we will have to do another swap sometime for sure :). Just let me know what you are interested in!

Comment: Nice card! You'll looooove Photoshop. I find that leaving things in "layers" makes it sooo much easier to maintain them later. But that it's nice to save a second copy as a jpg after doing "flatten layers" cuz the files are a lot smaller and go to my printer a lot faster.

Comment: Thanks so much. That margarita pie sounds amazing.

Comment: Bonus points for making them postcard size. :) I'm putting together a postcard-ish cookbook. I do want to mention that most vegans don't eat honey as bees are animals, but I can easily substitute brown rice syrup or agave nectar. Thanks!
