Comment: TY - I loved the notebook the best and I actually really needed a new one. Oh and my daughter will love those notecards with matching papers. I am putting them in her gift box for christmas. She has got one every year for 3-4 years now. She loves a huge assortment of items for crafting and doesn't mind things aren't all brand new. In fact she prefers I send one or two of each item instead of a bunch of the same thing So anyway ty for helping with goodies for her. I loved what you sent. :) BIG HUGS

Comment: Thank you so much for the lovely cat toys! Russ just came back from the vet, his eye is a bit irritated so he was a bit grumpy. The larger mouse toy made his day! He was rolling and kicking around for at least halve an hour :D

Comment: Hiya Maggie. Loved the card and your list of little things... I was actually on my way to buy paint to paint my bedroom and the pantone color you sent me was actually VERY close to the actual color I was thinking of buying.... can you believe the coincidence? Thanks again. G.
Response: Glad you got it alright, I knew I had to send you a blue PC. Hope the painting went well!
