Comment: Hi Bev, I hope everything is alright there. The weather can get pretty brutal at times. I love the Edgar Allan Poe ATC u sent. He's one of my fav writers and poets as I was growing up. I was really into morbid stuff during my teens. I love the paper you wrapped your ATC with. That's definitely goin into something I craft with in the future. Thanks again and have fun creating! 😁

I'm hoping the gel injections I just got in my knees keep me from surgeries-dr thinks it may be my hip and not my knees that are the problem. Glad you are having good luck with your hip and the next one too. Starting to cool off here-I love fall and winter even more! Take care-always good to get a swap from you, friend!

Comment: I love this so very much. I was wondering about how you did it. Did you just glue tissue paper to the postcard? Then spray on different sprays. Or did you wet the tissue paper to make it bleed? And then what is the unicorn? Is that just a digital that you colored in with metallic markers? I'm trying to learn more mixed media
Response: Wrinkle tissue first. I used a glue on a base paper then added the tissue over keeping as much of the wrinkles as possible. After that sprays. This video explains the process. The rest is painted in acrylics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhfuBGE0N2g&list=PLtLW-fYw76EsKhJ5ODht71woS1LBMgdfx&index=141&t=21s Thanks for the heart!

Comment: I laughed out loud at your spiked watermelon story! Sadly (but fortunately!) I despise the taste of anything stronger than Mike's Hard Lemonade...if I can taste the alcohol, the drink (or watermelon) is ruined for me. I've never tasted jet fuel, but in my mind, hard alcohol and jet fuel taste the same. I love the ATC, and I believe that hummingbirds. must LOVE watermelon flowers! I owe you a newsy message, and I promise it's coming. I'm in a mess here...constant vestibular migraines, too much stuff to organize quickly and efficiently, and at the moment, a kitty who has developed a cough that concerns me greatly. We're seeing the vet tomorrow. I can't lose another kitty, Bev. I just can't. I'm already mentally fragile, with the chaos and the headaches...
Response: Thank you for your kind words. Hope that all will be well with you and your fur baby. Take it slow and look after the both of you!

Comment: We both enjoy making and receiving small works of art, such as artist trading cards…so when I say that this exquisite ATC ornament is a true work of art, you know I mean no disrespect to all the lovely ATCs created and received over the years. What I mean is that this one is so “extra”…so beautifully crafted (on both sides!)…that it’s in a different realm. Thank you so, so much. I will be saving the lace for a very special project…and this piece of art is in my ornament box, to be brought out year after year.

I see pictures, movies, etc. in which the fashionable ladies are wearing extravagantly extreme hats, and I wonder how on earth they kept their balance...particularly as I have also noticed their little high heeled shoes!

It sounds like you are quite busy around the Holidays but sounds also fun! Thank you for also sharing with me about your younger friend who loves birds. I love birds so much too, my dream is to open an avian sanctuary and rescue! Hopefully one day I can achieve that. It also breaks my heart seeing people keep their birds in cages all the time.

I've had two knee replacements, and while they were difficult, it's hard to imagine life before I had them done. I've heard that hips are much easier than knees, so I know you will be fine. Do your physio, and you'll breeze through the recovery. Our grocery prices are dreadful, which obviously is the case in both countries. I wonder how long this horrible inflation will continue!

Comment: Bev: This might be one of my favorite swaps received from you. All of your paper and fabric layers are just perfect, and I love the image of the girl that you chose. Love the doilies that you cut - I think I need a doilies die cut myself after seeing this! So fun to be able to make them in any color you want. The little touches of glitter and the metal fan - perfect little accents. This really is lovely and I thank you so much for it! And I love the vintage French book pages you included!!
Response: So pleased you enjoyed it! Thanks for the heart!

I love the use of die cuts on both of these - especially the one with the blue/white background that looks like branches. And I would never have known the one was a blue jay if you hadn't told me! Very clever of you!! We have been lucky here in the desert to avoid almost all of the deluge that has hit the state farther north. We have had some rain and there is a lot of snow in the mountains, which is good, but we have escaped the most of it. Glad you had a good Christmas but the traveling on the ferry sounded awful!! Warmer weather is coming - one of these days!! Take Care.

I grew up in Brazil so most of my Xmas were hot and tropical and the idea of a white Xmas were just on the movies. Cold weather does require a lot more communion than hot so I really appreciate your story. I'm sorry that you had a tough year. I hope you have friends to count on this time of the year so you don't feel lonely. I had a few Xmas by myself and although it is just a date, it is always better when shared. Take care, Renata

Comment: Both cards are lovely, Bev. Have a wonderful Xmas on the Island. We're going to get a live tree this year - the Scouts have an event where you pay $5 to cut down your own tree on some property in the Kananaskis area. They end up being kind of a "Charlie Brown" tree, but it's fun and they have a big bonfire where you can cook up a hotdog.
Response: That sounds wonderful. As a child, each family in the camp had permission to cut down one tree. Loved the smell of the fresh tree. Hated cleaning up the needles after. Thank you for the heart! Have a good and safe Christmas!

It's just so well balanced and so pleasing to the eye. And thanks so much for the beautiful gold trims you sent me - I love that they have adhesive on one side - so much easier to apply. And lastly thanks for your note and taking the time to share you thoughts. And I do remember having a chart with stars when in school and we also had one at home.

Comment: Oh Bev! This is just the loveliest tag...so evocative of "the old days" and old schoolhouses. The "I will obey my teacher" note on the blackboard reminded me of my behaviors...just SOME of my behaviors!...when I was in primary school. I was a voracious reader, ahead of my class in certain subjects unrelated to math, and I made it clear that the others were holding me back! Ugh...I'm probably the reason I never became a teacher! Your artwork is always stunning, and this is right up there with the best tags I've ever received. Thank you!
Response: So pleased you enjoyed it. I was always "Tries hard but" child in my first few grades. I loved math and reading. By the time I was in grade 8, I had a grade 12 reading level.

I love the sweetness of the garden-type birds, and I also am very fond of the brassy beauty of seagulls. You did a beautiful job of depicting both types of birds, and I'm thrilled to have them. And the chiffon roses are great...I love using them in my artwork...thank you for an amazing envelope-opening experience!

Thanks, too, for the beautiful floral trim piece, I can't wait to use it in my creations. Best part of it all was your lovely note. That's what makes swapping so fun - the "pen pal" aspect. Getting to know fellow artists across the miles. Happy spring to you, thanks again!!

Comment: Bev, I adore the cheeky rabbit ink box cards you sent for the March swap! Did you paint the one in acrylics yourself? It's wonderful! I also appreciate your very kind note, and learning the details about your thought process behind these lovely creations. I learned a few things myself, about mad rabbits; mating season; and Red Rose tea commercials! :) The die cut rabbit extras are adorable and I recognize them as coming from a coveted die I don't yet own, so they're a treasure. Thank you again. I appreciate you!
Response: Yes, the one rabbit was painted by me. I have used him before. He is from an image I found on a Google search. Have fun playing with the die cuts! Thank you for the heart!

Comment: Thank you so much Bev for the great eagle tag! I love eagles so much and I am lucky to live where I can see eagles, both bald and golden, pretty much anytime. Recently I’ve seen a bald eagle fly right over my house! I love that your tag has a golden eagle...they are so regal and beautiful, and I feel not mentioned as much as bald eagles. I love the story you shared with me about your dad and the eagle! Thank you so very much!
Response: So pleased it arrived safely! Mail has been so hit-and-miss as of late. Thank you for the heart!

Comment: Bev, this is without a doubt the coolest ATC I've ever received...the Gothic arch WAVES is something I've never seen, and I love it so much! I adore the mermaid with her embroidery (I also am a needleworker, and spend most evenings stitching away in my chair, surrounded by cats). And the Japanese papers...I agree that we are overdue for an Asian swap. How I love geishas...yes, I think a geisha swap is in our near future! Thank you for always sending such great stuffs to your swap partners!
Response: Thank you for your delightful comments and heart. I have been trying to use what I have and this die was one of the items I wanted to use but did not know which project to use it with. Yes, I was thinking of you when I saw that mermaid doing needlework, lol!

And such a beautiful (albeit sad) theme...it saddens me that American schoolchildren aren’t taught about the various world (and other) wars, because I fear that not understanding what led to them ends in more wars, and that’s a bleak prospect. There are so many sad stories that come from war...so many left behind wondering how to move on with their lives in the face of devastation. Anyway...your details are amazing, my very favorite being the “we regret to inform you” telegram. Just a lovely work of art!

Comment: Great to get from you again. Love all that is going on in this collage! Thanks for the butterfly paper extras too! I have a ScanNCut 2 and I absolutely love it. Love being able to cut out my stamped images and things I print from the computer. Very easy to use and am always amazed at how beautifully it cuts. Our snow is slowing melting away as we have had some days above freezing. Take care-good luck packing and moving in-it is quite the job! Till next time!
Response: Alas, the move has been postponed again due to issues with levelling the floors. They now tell us possession in mid-May and move-in date for June. At least it gives me a bit more time to sort through what I do have. Thanks for the heart! Hope you can tell how much fun I had with this!

I love swapping with you, and promise that Marie shall be featured soon.

Comment: Bev thank you so much for this amazing tag made even more special with your family photo! For ten years while I was teaching, I coordinated our school’s Veterans Day celebration. I loved doing it and always felt it was my way to support those who served or are serving now. Every year my art students would make large poppies to give to our guests as I would read the poem Flanders Field. I really miss doing this program since I’m no longer able to teach. This tag reminds me of how special our Veterans are! Thanks so much for all of the amazing tags you’ve made for my book. I love them all.
Response: Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Life has a way of keeping one busy. I do ;love that image. Never saw it before this year. Can see why my Gran was attracted to him. He was quite the charmer. So sad the challenges he had to go through during and after the war. He drove a supply truck to one of the death camps after it was liberated. Haunted him for a very long time.

Comment: Oh my, what a beautifully wrapped up October tag! I love the pretty orange tulle with fall leaves. The tag is so intricate with the cut out trees and the napkin background showing through. The image, the metallic leaves and pretty ribbon and lace (I especially love that generous piece of vintage lace on the end of the tag!) all make for a beautiful tag! Thank you so very much Bev.
Response: So pleased you finally got everything. Was worried it got lost in the mail. I did love that tulle. It was the last roll, and I was glad to find it. The trees are a die I had on hand that I just doubled up. As always thanks for the heart!

I appreciate ALL the fussy cutting of the tropical flowers and greenery. Thank you so much. This will be great in my bird Tag Book.

Comment: Hello dear friend! Thank you for the lovely autumn journal page! I love the napkin background and rarely think to use that myself. Unlike you, I'm a big squirrel fan (unlike my husband who calls them rats with fluffy tails). Like them or not, the image is lovely. So excited for you to get back into your place! Wil you be in by Christmas? Fingers crossed!
Response: Not until March. Have taken hubby to look at furniture though. Glad you like my "rat with fuzzy tail"...Thanks for the heart!

Comment: How I love this elegant Japanese ATC, from the origami paper background to the gorgeous pagoda die cut to (the star of the show!) the lovely geisha herself. Thank you also for the lovely stash of origami paper; it's a special love of mine. You will laugh when I tell you that apparently your swap envelope was flagged as possibly hiding something nefarious, as it was sealed with bright green tape stating: Examined by US Customs and Border Protection. I certainly do feel much safer now! (Sarcasm intended). I am sorry to hear of the shooting near the Japanese Dollar Store; it's so bad here that I think movie theaters may go out of business, and shopping malls have been forsaken in favor of online shopping for several years. It is a scary world we live in, particularly here in the USA, with our homegrown terrorists being applauded by our sorry excuse for a President.

Response: I am trying to remember which images I used. I did not scan and save the image like I usually do for some reason.

My Gran had a breeding kennel at one point and was a sucker for strays as well. She had one that was quite the character. I was at my Gran's house and I answered the front door as we had heard knocking. When I opened it, the only one at the door was a huge great dane.

Response: You are more than welcome. Always happy to pass on something I know will get used. You may want to lightly dust the back of the sticky stencil as it is too sticky and can tear paper.

Comment: Thanks for these great embellishments! Thanks too for the extra papers and the nice note! Our "mice" are voles! David has caught 30 of them in traps so far.

Nothing goes to waste up here! Hugs from Alaska, Sherry

And that little cow? Perfect! It was such fun to read about the logging camps and your mother's love of old houses--I share that love. I grew up in a huge 1850's Victorian. It was fairly near the OSU campus and as the campus expands and expands I know it's only a matter of time 'til it is torn down. We drive past it frequently. Thank you so much for this wonderful swap; I get so excited when I see your name on the envelope because of the swap AND your newsy notes--they always give me a lift.

Comment: Bev, this is beautiful. I'm in love with the horses stamp and the colors you used on the background. I'm too literal in completing these ICAD's and when I saw yours I knew EXACTLY which ICAD it represented. Thanks, also, for the gorgeous origami paper (I've squirreled that black piece away to my hoard ;+) and the postage. If you take a break, make it a short one!
Response: Will try not to cut back too much! So pleased you like what I made. We have a local Japanese dollar store that gets in such interesting items. Love the paper craft items they get in. Thanks for the heart!

Then you sent me an ENTIRE STAMP COLLECTION! You are so generous! I'm going to start an air mail swap so I have a chance to use the stamps IMMEDIATELY! Thanks, also, for the unused stamps. I pick and peel and cut so I use them all--sometimes with glue ;+) So glad your condo is shaping up and glad you got all the upgrades--we deserve all good things!
Response: Always happy to share the wealth! Postage is so pricey these days. The stamps were extras I had. Did not realize how many they were able to recover after the fire. Thought I had lost that set so bought again. Thanks for the heart!

Thank you for the book pages as well. I have never heard of Pittman shorthand...it looks very complicated. What was it used for? take care.
Response: The shorthand was before your time. It was a way of shortening words so secretaries could take dictation in offices, thus called shorthand. By the 70s with the advent of word processors and computers it became redundant. Thanks for the kind words and the heart!

I am full of admiration for my fellow artists who can mix things up successfully. The more modern of the two ATCs reminds me very much of BevT's art, which has a special place in my heart. You are a truly wonderful swap partner (those trims!).
Response: Thanks for the heart. I have been trying to switch things up a bit so I don't get bored or in a rut. I do so miss BevT. She was always a treat to swap with. Hope all is well with her. If you ever get to Vancouver will have to take you to the store where I get most of them...

Receiving your work is like a little Christmas gift ;+) And your card is so professional! You should be making cards for a living (except who wants to work any more?) Thanks, Bev, for always sending such beautiful things my way.
Response: The snow was Snow-Tex. Comes in a jar and has a lovely look of snow. The light strands are a die. Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Not one, but TWO completely different fairy-themed altered rolos...and both are beautiful in their own ways! First of all, I don't think there's such a thing as "too much" fairy dust...and if there is such a thing, I see no evidence of it on this pink-and-purple beauty. (I know how you feel, though...I tend to "overdo" when using embossing powder and a heat gun.) Rest assured, my sweet friend, both of these will be displayed proudly in my small rolodex!
Response: So happy you liked both of them. Was worried about the glut of glitter. Thanks again for your heart! Always a pleasure to swap with you!

As you know, Calgary had a huge dump early this month - still have some in the yard on the north side - but, it's been great temps this week.

I think your #4 Index card came out great - I love your colors and the cute little lady watering her garden. I had not had much experience with Gesso but found I liked the effect so have used it since. So thank you for the spectacular Queen of the Jungle index card!
Response: Thanks for the heart! The garden outside my window is absolutely crazy right now. The fellow who manages it is away for a month so when he gets back he will need not just a weed wacker but a machete it has gotten so bad. On the plus side, this is the first year I have seen the cacti blooming! Lovely great yellow and pink blush colours.

Every time I look at it, I find something new to love. I am CRAZY or the painted and stamped card. Have you taken painting classes or is this just a gift? I love this card SOOOO much--especially the fisherman with his telescope--what a special image--is it a stamp? Thanks, too, for your lovely note. Unfortunately we're already in the middle of a heat wave--90+ every day this week. I'm not a beachy person either; I won't swim in the ocean and the alternative is being sweaty in the sand ;+) Great to receive your art again, Bev!
Response: You need to send some of that sun our way! The lighthouse journal page is all stamps with watercolour and acrylics added. These are some of my fav stamps. I have not taken any painting classes but my Gran was an artist so perhaps it runs in the family... The embossing folder I used for the waves is a newer one I got about 5 months ago. I love it also but find I have to be careful about which cardstock I use as it can cut into it. Found gently misting the paper first helps. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: My dearest Bev, as always, I'm always so happy to receive your very artistic crafts. Love the ballerina! And yes, my niece wants to claim it for her "collection", now she's upset that I won't let her have it. (She'll get over it) I'm thankful to have you as my partner, but mostly as a dear friend across the miles. Thank you for the PC's,the flowers and the lovely tissue paper. Have a wonderful month of July & enjoy your Summer!
Response: So happy all arrived safely! Thanks for the heart! So far it has been a cooler summer than expected. We still hope for the sun to come...

Comment: I love, love what you made for me! You are extremely talented with your painting. Your hand must be incredibly steady. The detail on that sweet little guy was unbelievable! The other atc was just so sweet with the blue parakeet. I had a miniature parrot when we lived in Panama. He bit me one day and flew away. I felt horrible and my heart was broken. His name was Henry Arnold and he knew many words and did the cat call whistle. ( My mom is an incredibly patient animal trainer.) I now have a yellow budgie that will not come out of his cage. He bites but not hard. I've had him a year and since I don't work, I am with him all day. He is quite verbal, but nothing but birdy chirps and sounds. He has a huge cage, so his life isn't bad, but I will continue to be gentle and patient with him, maybe he will come out someday and play. Thank you for sharing your pet stories with me!
Response: Thanks for the kind words. I am better at painting than drawing. It hurts to hold a pen or pencil too long. I must hold the brush differently. Thank you also for the heart!

And topped off with that darling crab charm and beautiful flowers! Thank you for a wonderful swap and great extras!!! I will cherish it forever!
Response: Thanks for the heart! I love being by the water. It is such a part of me, that is why that image was perfect.

There was a wonderful Japanese grocery store in Portland that had a big selection of dolls, origami papers, ceramic pieces, and so forth. However, it was purchased by a cannabis store, which no doubt does 100 times the amount of business on any given day. You are a truly wonderful swap partner and long-distance friend, Bev. And that is from my heart.

I will actually be in your part of the world in June next year. Sadly only have one day in Vancouver itself. But I’m so excited to be getting to see Canada and Alaska for the very first time. Wishing you and your family a Very Merry Christmas. Ros

Then you put it all inside a wood cigar box (love them) and some awesome filigree and lace. Thanks so much for a fantastic swap, I will treasure it! :)

I have a Butterick catalog from 1932 and it is so much fun to look at and the lady who owned it before my buying it on Ebay had pasted recipes and household hints of the day in it-made it all the more enthralling! So thanks for sharing with me and the extra book and map pages are much appreciated. So good to swap with you again!
Response: What can I say, turning up like a shiny penny...I always found it funny that the maternity wear models never looked pregnant. Love how that lady used the catalogue for more than one use. Sort of a nicer way than us using it in the outhouse...Thanks for the heart!

Even your envelope was pure Barbie. Thanks, also, for your newsy note and those just-plain-neat little jewels.

Comment: This is an outstanding ATC, Miss Bev! Marie Antoinette has never looked better, and you showcased her beautifully. I always love receiving mail from you, and I never fail to say "Next time I will write a better note, like Bev does"...but I never follow through. It's one of the things that make your swap partners love to receive mail from you. I have to mention the beautiful trims...I love them, too! I know these aren't tatted, but I have to tell you that I bought a tatting shuttle and paid $19.99 for an online class to teach myself to tat. What ended up happening is that I wasted $19.99. Apparently I am not capable of learning from a video. I still have hope, however, and will not give up!

I have no idea as to how photoshop etc work, so you've done amazing work. There is nothing I don't like about it! I can only imagine what a major life change the fire created, but you're inspiring with your positive attitude about it all. I imagine I'd be so devastated I wouldn't know what to do. Well done you guys. (Btw...I know what you mean by DH, but the slang here in Oz it would mean dickhead...sorry, but I just had to laugh when I saw that 😬) I enjoyed reading your letter too. Thanks again, cheers! 😊❤

Comment: I am so sorry, Auntie Bev, I received your Hogswatch letter bright and early and I was remiss in getting back to you. Now I can't wish you a Happy Hogswatch until next year! I hope that you will accept my apologies and I humbly offer up a Happy Year of the Backwards-Facing Artichoke! When I figure out why it is the YOTBFA, I will let you know. Thanks for the lovely letter, I do look forward to them every year and I hope that we will see each other at the annual Reunion on the Ankh ...
Response: Ah well, with the slow mail here....The snow stopping Hal's mule service from getting over the pass I was worried it was left in his hillside waystation. A Happy New Year to you as well. The Reunion sounds lovely!

Comment: Stunning, and yet funny as well...a true tigermousecat original! I love the ATC (and I purchased an envelope full of flour sack "postage stamp" quilt squares; I love them!), and I have to ask...did you make the gorgeous tatted trim? I have tried and tried, but I don't seem to be capable of tatting. It's a heartbreak, because I love it so very much.
Response: I do love Ma Kettle. She is such a strong women yet in some ways naive. The lace is all storebought. I just got some new tatting shuttles to replace what I lost after I made that. Will have to work at sending you out some bits to use for future projects...

Purple is one of my fav colours especially right now with all the flowers blooming that are purple.. Right up there with blue and green. I used a decoupage glue and made certain it was well sealed. We get a lot of wet weather here so I like to make it as waterproof as possible. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: It's hard to decide which of the two ATC's I like the best.... Thanks for them. Due to no money and a rough running car, I don't travel anymore. When I was in Canada, I went as far north as Fort MacMurry in Alberta. I drove 11,000 mile that year (alone). It was fun. See ya...
Response: Glad you liked my gals! Always wanted to go to Hawaii! Like you time and money are in short supply. Perhaps when I retire...

Comment: Hi Bev! I received your beautiful lilac postcard today, omg it is so awesome! Not sure what you made the lilac flower from, did you glue the tiny pieces separately? Love how you added the gold doilies and of course the lovely napkin. Great job, one of the prettiest postcards I've ever received!! Yes, lilacs are my favorite flower, I'm from Ohio and they are everywhere up there. But, not any of them that I've seen here in Florida :( I buy lilac candles, but not the same. Thank you so much, I appreciate all your work in making this beautiful card! Take care, Judy
Response: Yes, the petals are punched and glues separately. I sprayed cardstock with glimmer mists then went from there. I adore lilacs. They are already starting to bloom here. A very early season. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Bev, you simply outdid yourself with this tag! It is brilliant (as the British say . . . ) All the lovely details and that sweet beaded fringe really make this tag sing. Your addition of the TH "umbrella man" is just perfect since I have heard it can be quite rainy in London. Your story (printed in Olde English script?) was such a joy to read. Thank you for creating something so special for me and for making this swap such a joy to open! Hope to swap together again soon.
Response: It was a real trip down memory lane...It did drizzle a bit when we went so long ago, Nothing worth putting our umbrella up for, though all the Brits had theirs up. Living in Vancouver we know rain. My DH and I smiled at each other as we were thinking...You think this is rain, you haven't seen rain.... Thanks for the heart and swap on!

My own grownup bluetongue skinks sometimes stand on their backlegs, but they hold a branch or window with their forelegs then. About snakes: I know the behaviour of my own petsnakes by heart, but I will always be cautious with a snake I know nothing about. They are predators that can hit you well! So no need for sorry about the snake-thing :-)

We will hang up the lovely Hogfather ornament and toast another Hogswatch with Scumble De ALDI, which I hear is a genuine import from somewhere near Uberwald. Happy Hogswatch!!
Response: May you be blessed with many sausages and good will in the New Year!

LOL There is a such a thing as water soluble oil paint that is a nice alternative to traditional oil painting, but honestly, there are acrylic mediums that can give a person the same effect with the affordability of acrylic. Ive never seen the bead medium used before, is this liquitex? =) Happy Swapping friend!

Response: The card is embossed. It is from a TH mini embossing folder set. I picked up the pumpkin dies from Winners last year, post Halloween. If it is the tiny web, it was from a package of Halloween confetti from the 1$ store, other wise it may have been a ribbon I also got there. I have been making so many of the Halloween swaps lately I am getting forgetful about which is which. Or should I say...witch is witch... Thanks for the heart!

I like both cats and dogs and Buster really likes cats (he gets all whiny and waggy tailed when he sees one and we used to have a neighbors cat come over to play with him before they moved), but I can't handle litter boxes so we have Lucy instead of a kitten. As much as he loves her, sometimes I think he'd gladly trade her in for a little tabby cat. = )

Comment: Bev, thank you for two wonderful ATCs! I love the backgrounds you created and the themes used for each one. The old truck is Tim Holtz and the other is my well-loved big cat! On top of that, you are familiar with William Blake's tiger poem, which touched my English prof's heart. My students sure needed help getting to the meaning of that seemingly simple poem; of course, Blake is never simple even those his poems may sound that way. I will love adding these ATCs to my collection and just may have to find a spot to display them in my art room! Have a wonderful Christmas!
Response: So happy you liked them. I enjoy working from a well done profile. Merry Christmas!

Comment: I love these ATCs, Bev! The message each one carries matches the design of the card so perfectly. I agree with your comment about the Twinkling H2Os. I could not find any, but a Hobby Lobby clerk lead me to pearlescent water colors which I used and sent my ATC. Then I found the Twinkling ones on Amazon and ordered them to resend to my partner. The effect I got was the same as with the pearlescent paints. I like the effect, but as you say, it can be gotten in other ways. It was fun to play with the color combinations though--I'm a child at heart when it comes to things like that. Have a great day.

Comment: Bev--what lovely ATCs. I found the coffee filter background interesting. I left mine the natural vanilla and bits of brown but am curious now to try coloring them as you did. The gold butterfly is especially lovely--is that UTEE used as embossing powder? The "lovers" on the cruise ship is very nicely drawn. That something I admire--not my strongest arts and crafts skill! Thanks so much!
Response: Thanks for the rating! I just layered the embossing powder as I don't have UTEE. The couple was actually a stamp I have. I, like you, can not draw worth a hoot.

I also love how you made the tree with paint texture--how did you do that? I was at the garden center today for a class and looked at all the fairy gardening things. I would love to spend a lot of money in there--such dainty little things, stepping stones, doorways, houses, tables, chairs, hanging lanterns...all so teeny weeny :)

Here in Southern Wisconsin, we also have a god of "Why didn't I put on my snow tires?," as we believe that our Southern climate somehow should have better-scraped roads and forget that the Let it Snow Lady has a sense of humor.

Comment: Wow- what a fun selection of profile based goodies you sent. The "old" stamp will surely become a favorite standby and all those charms will be put to good use. Liked the "borrowed" folder and the "new" ATC and let's not forget that "blue" ribbon. I greatly appreciated your note and will be thinking of you this Christmas!
Response: So glad you liked all! You can thank my partner for the inspiration!

Comment: Your art arrived and as the saying goes, good things come to those who wait. I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the art, the green envelope, your art on the envelope, the card and how the art came about. I love how you took the weather and incorporated it into the art - "Storm Coming In" has to be my all time favorite of any cards. Distress Inks ROCK! Also LOVE "gone fishing", it remembers me of my sister. Thank you so much, today was not a good day and YOU brought me sunshine.
Response: I was so worried they were lost as they took so long to arrive into your hands. I am so happy you are pleased with them. The storm one is my fav. Loved the way the inks came out like a storm front. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Thanks for the very nice ATCs using the masking the negative image--I had problems getting satisfactory results with this technique as well. In the end, it looked more recessed than I'd expected, but I need to experiment some more before I feel confident about my results. I also understand that it is hard to get many of the supplies that we in US large cities can find so easily--if we can afford them! I have more budget for those items since retirement as I only need one tank of gas for about 6 weeks rather than 2 and my clothing and dry cleaning budget is SO much SMALLER! Hope you are having a good week!

Comment: I love these ATCs! Particularly, you know, the "go west...to Vancouver Island" ATC! My friends live in Nanaimo, Parksville, and Port Hardy, and I've spent quite a bit of time enjoying the beauty of the island. One of my favorite Port Hardy memories is putting on tall boots and hitting the beach at low tide with hockey sticks and buckets to find crabs for dinner...my friends Kris and Ken have a B&B there, and she is an amazing cook!
Response: Some of my family are in Parksville, land ot the newly wed and nearly dead and sometimes they are one and the same!

Cheers, FreddFudd {;-D

Comment: I so loved the cards. The June wedding was great, but the tea party was super!!! I loved how you coordinated the card to absolutely fit my profile. I have a child's set of blue teacups, etc. It fit in very well. The extras were great, also. I love color coordinated papers. Wonderful job, Thank you ever so much.

I live near Pacific Ocean but have never seen a whale close up-just a spout out tosea. Although whales come close to the shore, I've never been in the right place at the right time.

Comment: Seriously these are by the far the absolute best ATC's I've ever received! I paint in acrylics and watercolor and I don't know how people can paint so small (I like painting on a large canvas). Your work is such an inspiration for me to learn to "paint small". I wish I could give you more hearts! And it really means a lot that you took the time to read my profile and create an ATC for me. Happy swapping!
Response: Thank you! Actually, I am terrified of messing up a large canvas. At least when I make errors it is not such a hardship to begin anew with a small one.
