Comment: Thanks so much for the really awesome envies! I love how each one was so unique! I want to use them immediately as I know they will be so cool for someone to get in the mail!! Your vogue image transfer on the outer envie turned out so great too. I just started Gelli printing and havenβt quite gotten that technique down, but it could be the cheap paints Iβm using too. I also really loved the various rubber stamps you used-you have a nice assortment!

Your mail art is so neat and I love how you used a TVA postage stamp on the envie. We do have a lot in common. I can't believe you had a Johnny Cash as well. Thank you for a wonderful swap. I hope we get to swap again in the future.

Comment: Thanks for another fabulous swap! As soon as I saw the ornaments I though it looked like skin. LOL I immediately went and watched the Demeng video and it is a cool technique. Can't wait to try it. Where do you buy your Kroma crackle? I love the starlight ornament too. Your layers are so delicious. And thank for the ephemera too. Can't have too much woodland stuff! Your 100 Days Project sounds wonderful. I never was much on writing a diary but last year would have been a great year to start. Esp. through artwork. And your project this year sounds like so much fun. I did a 9 ATC pocket letter on my favorite songs and it was really enjoyable. Would love to see your finished projects someday. Looking forward to a creative and crafty 2021. Let me know if you feel like swapping again. You always inspire me so! <3<3<3

Comment: I am speechless! What a gorgeous set of ATCs you sent me. They are far too special to put in a binder -- I am going to frame them and hang them on the art wall in my art room :) My favorite is "you are enough". The message is a perfect reminder, and I love the way the center woman has one eye accentuated. It is always such a thrill to see an envelope from you in my mailbox! You are an incredible artist, and I am so lucky to be a recipient of your work! Thank you so very much :)

Comment: As I have come to expect your ornaments this year are spectacular! The polymer clay snowflake is beautiful. I never have done any clay work so I love receiving your perfect treasures. The paper ornaments you make are more my speed but I don't know where you get those lovely paper bases you alter. From local craft stores? I love the heart because you really need to look "into the depths" to see the black veining and detail. Very cool. But the round one is my favorite by far. Beautiful colors and textures and layers. Thanks again for swapping with me again this year. It is always an inspiration and a pleasure! <3<3<3
Response: I am so happy you like everything! The bases for my paper ornaments I do indeed buy at craft stores. Sometimes Amazon has them as well. The round one was made by gluing script-stamped tissue paper over the gesso'ed base, then adding a layer of rice paper that I decorated. Here's how - you scrape string gel through a stencil and let dry, then use watered down acrylic paint to add color. I love the effect! Thank you so much for a stellar rating, and for swapping with me again, my friend! :)

Comment: Wow Jessica! As always, your ornaments are spectacular! I have played with similar glass ornaments using acrylic paints but love the shimmery effect you achieved using alcohol inks. I wish I could watch you make some of your paper mache ornaments. I stare and stare at them and can't figure out how the heck you did it! lol. Love the shine/matte areas on the star and the textures you created. But the white floral circle is over the top gorgeous. These will definitely stay out in my studio all year round! Thanks for another perfect swap. I hope your 2019 is fabulous! <3<3<3

I love the round sunflower -- you achieved an amazing amount of texture detail with your stencil. And it arrived in perfect condition. The purple crackle light bulb is amazing with its depth of color and consistency of crackle texture. Both are up in my living room and will probably stay up all year lol. This is becoming one of my favorite holiday traditions. Thank you thank you thank you. Big hugs!

Comment: Hi again :-) . . . I love your postcard, it's so colorful and has interesting patterns. What did you use to make the paint so shiny? Is it the paint, or is it something you put on over the paint? As you can tell, I don't know very much about multi/mixed media art. I'm learning some things, but it's not what I usually do. It looks to me like you know a lot and have probably been making multi-layered art for a long time. I really love the layers you achieved.
Response: I am so glad you liked it! The shine comes from a coat of Triple Thick sealer I sprayed on at the end. Love that stuff! Layers are so necessary in the things I create! You can achieve some wonderful effects via layers. Thanks for joining my swap, and for the heart!

I am amazed (and a bit confused) at how you created the black diamond pattern. The subtle textures you achieved, the delicious color palette, and the deft use of metallic gold are all exceptional. You continue to be a favorite swap partner because you always send me something uniquely beautiful and heartfelt. Thank you so very much! <3<3<3<3<3 And thanks for sharing that beautiful greeting card too. Incredible example of layered woodcut printing!

Comment: As usual, you sent something way cool! I love the ornament. I never would have guessed it has a paper base. It looks so metallic. Love the colors and the silver and the shine. Did you use triple thick to seal it? I'm doing very little decorating this year but your new ornament will be front and center (and your eggshell snowflake is up year-round). Have yourself a Merry little Christmas. Looking forward to swapping with you in 2017.
Response: I am so very happy you like it! I did use triple thick to seal it, and the metallic rubbing/buffing wax gives that awesome look of real metal. Love that stuff! It warms my heart that my ornaments are on display at your home, and that the snowflake is up year round. I have your sock monkey eggshell piece on my tree, and even after Christmas he will still be on display in my living room. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, and I am looking forward to more swaps with you, too! <3 <3 <3

It reminds of the maps in an atlas :) I have prints and envelopes I can't bring myself to part with, so I totally understand where you're coming from ;) Love the color combo and squiggly design bunches! It sure took its sweet time getting here -- 14 days!

Maybe she will help me feel like "Queen for the Day" -- at least now and then LOL. I love both inspiration cards. Your prints are fascinating and your color palettes are beautiful. I am learning lots about new color combos to try. I really really like the "Being What One Is" card. Love how you split the head. I am honored to add these to my collection. Good luck with those peppers!! :)

Comment: Jessica, thank you for trusting me with this honest letter. I'm sorry you're in a situation where you had to write it..it sounds so difficult. I'm glad to read in your note that it was a cathartic experience. Side note: I love your handwriting! Thanks for sending :)
Response: Thank you for hosting this swap. It was good for me. And thanks for the comment on my handwriting! I was going to write the letter itself, but I feared my emotions would take over and make it illegible as it went on, haha! Thanks for a great rating!

Comment: Aaaaack! Now I'm going to have to print all my manila envelopes! Those colors are stunning! I LOVE your letter. It's so cool that you've been here and visited the Monument. That's my favorite morning hike. The east entrance is five minutes from my doorstep. As for the swap, everything is fabulous! I especially like the circles print. (I think I was a circle in a former geometric life.) The bookmark and ATC are great! I so appreciate you giving me such fun examples of Gelli print products! Your alcohol ink pages are beautiful, as well. Do you spray them with something to get those open areas? Nice, nice, nice! Thank you very much!
Response: You're most welcome! I'm thrilled you're happy with the swap. The open areas on the alcohol inked papers are created by spritzing with alcohol. I spritz a little when the ink's still wet, then come back after it's dried and spritz again. I love the effect. I must admit, I'm terribly jealous that you're so close to the monument. What a beautiful place! Thanks again for swapping with me, and for a stellar rating and your kind comments! :)

The beading on the tie and the crinkle ribbon matches so prettily. And my fave citrus colors too. The deli paper wrapping is another work of art in itself, and of course the notecard as well. This is such a pretty coordinated set and it is obvious how much work you put into it. Thank you so much for making it special for me, I do love trees. You should sell these in your shop. xo.
Response: You are more than welcome, my friend. I'm thrilled you like everything, and it was my pleasure to make something just for you. It's funny you mention selling them in my shop, as I had thought of doing that very thing. Thank you so much for a wonderful rating and your kind comments! xoxo

Comment: + 10 more virtual hearts ;+) What an incredibly lovely swap. First, the envie is gorgeous--it has a whale--my favorite! The images are just amazing--and original (which I appreciate) and your organization of them will make them SO convenient for me to actually use. This is among the nicest swaps I've received on swap-bot in the 4 years I've been swapping Thank you very much indeed.
Response: Oh, yay! Your comment made my day! :) I'm so thrilled you like it all. I had fun putting it all together. Thanks for a wonderful rating, your kind words, and the "extra" hearts! :D

As usual it was filled with so many creative and beautiful things, it took at least 20 minutes to go through it all unwrapping each piece like a treasure. The gifts are too numerous to mention here for fear of writing a novel of thanks, but let me just mention that the handmade items I will keep and display and enjoy for many years to come and the items you bought for me I cannot wait to use. Thank you again for another lovely swap, you are an inspiration to me and that is something priceless.

The colors are perfect and they are just so cool and representative of the movie, but not in a super-obvious way. Love them!! I have been staring at them both trying to figure out how you did them! I can't wait for my husband to see them when he gets home.
Your zentangle is really beautiful!! The pen work is SO fine. Definitely going up on my wall in my craft room!
And the notecards. Holy cow. They are SO BEAUTIFUL. I don't know that I will be able to ever part with them, but if I do, they will certainly go to someone who can appreciate them properly.
And thanks for the ink pad too! I look forward to playing with it. I still have the notes from all the advice you gave me about inks and stamping, and I appreciate you taking the time to help me learn. You are awesome!!
Thank you so much!!

Comment: Wowie Zowie you deserve 100 stars for this package. What beautiful and thoughtful gifts! The butterfly stamp is wonderful - lots of detail for bling and painting. The dragonflys are all perfect (of course). The linoleum block is a scary blast from my college past LOL. The media blanks and punchies will be fun to use. I love your "Blue Monkey Market" logo and packaging -- very professional -- and the butterfly card is spectacular. But then you really outdid yourself! You sent that delicious black and turquoise bird card filled with more goodies -- a beautiful purple butterfly ATC (the green mica is breathtaking!) and three of the coolest butterfly inchies I have ever seen (incredibly good detail cutting there Sister). I was sooooooo lucky to have you as a partner. You absolutely ROCK!!! Thank you thank you thank you! <3<3<3<3<3

I really like too how your tore the paper on the cranberry one. I am going to have to "borrow" your idea. I liked being able to see your progression from the first turquoise one and then the cranberry one. Thanks for sending me two, yay. I've not been in any ATC swaps for a long time and these will be so nice to add to my collection.. Also the card you made that you sent it in is just stunning. Oh man that gear embossing and the way you colored it. Its like I got 3 in 1. Thank you!

The stamp is just gorgeous, one I have been wanting for forever, yet could never find. I needed a brayer, acrylic block, the alcohol inks, distressed embossing powder (can't wait to try), deli paper, handmade envies (lovely), chipboard book, the Winnie-the-Pooh vintage book and your lovely postcard and ATC. Chris loved his cards and Thea is playing with her headband. I know there is more, I can't list all the amazing items but once again this swap just made my week and blew me away.

Comment: Thank you for the WONDERFUL handmade envelopes! I wrote two penpal letters yesterday and used two of the envelopes you sent for them! I think my pals will love the mail art. :) You have to tell me - for the poker one and the musical ones (which I have saved because I don't want to part with) did you use stamps for those? I just love them!
Response: You're very welcome, and i'm happy to hear you've already used them! i did use stamps for the poker and musical envies. Thanks for a great rating!

Comment: Oh Jessica! You deserve *A HUNDRED HEARTS!* for this swap. Oh my lordy, where to start.. Okay, the magnets are just awesome and my fridge is already pimped out - it looks awesome. Then the destash goodness just made my day. (I can def use the stamps; the tags are very handy, the postcards are gorgeous - but your handmade card totally stole the show there). Thank you, thank you, thnak you. You rocked my world today. I hope I have you as a swap partner soon so that I can return the awesome :)
Response: Yay! You have made my day! i'm thrilled you like everything, and man, did that get there fast (considering how far it had to go)! i fretted over those magnets a bit, but in the end i was pleased with the results. i'm thinking of making my brother a set for his b-day as he loves him some Mario. i'm slowing down a bit on swapping at the moment, but maybe we can set up a private swap sometime this summer. Have a great day, and thanks for the stellar feedback! :)

Response: Thanks so much! You made my day! :) i'm so glad you like it. This was one of those i wanted to keep for myself, but knowing it has a good home eases the sting, haha. And i knew there was no way i could leave out the tail, so extending seemed like the perfect way to keep it, plus keep it to ATC size. Thanks for the great rating!

Comment: As always, your inchies are amazing! I'm particularly fond of the hand (reminds me of Julia in the second Hellraiser movie...if you know what I mean? She had no skin, it was awesome). Oh and I love the zombie with the brain protruding from his head! LOL I thought maybe the brain was detachable so I couldn't help but tug on it...nope, must still be connected. :P
Response: Yay! i like that the hand reminds you of Hellraiser. The zombie is actually a handcarved stamp of a clip-art image, well, the head. The brain i drew. i actually tried to think of a way to have the brain slide in and out without adding too much bulk, but came up short. i'm so happy you like them! :) Thanks for the great rating!

Comment: I LOVE this swap!!! OMG, you sent so many amazing things, I don't know where to start! The hand carved stamp is beautiful and just perfect. The Tim Holtz re-inkers I have been dying for and you found 2 of them!! The papers, the handmade gift tags and extra stamped images, the watercolour pencils, the resist stamp pad, just all of it was exceptional! I especially love the Handmade book you made to give me tips on using the watercolour pencils and resist pad. Just awesome as I have never used them and I can in turn fill in some of the pages myself as an art journal! This item is truly special to me! I would give you a bazillion hearts if I could! You so rock! Thanks and big hugs, Sher.
Response: Yay! :D i'm so happy you like everything. i had so much fun shopping and creating for you. i spent a good 3 weeks with that book, and it was a little hard to let it go, but i know it's in good hands! Thank you so much for setting this swap up for us. Can't wait to do it again sometime! {{Hugs}}

Comment: Packages like these exemplify the reason hearts were invented; from the outside envelope stamped with a baroque swirl of stylized leaves, a diving swallow, and my name, to the beautifully-executed ATCs in matching swirls, birds (and my favorite colours) in their own onionskin envie.... and what shall I say about the scattering of delicately patterned punched-paper doves that topped an assortment of RAK artpaper 'scraps' (though the word is unfair to apply to such lovely and carefully-cut pieces of colour and texture....)? Elegantly-presented, thoughtfully chosen, and charmingly introduced with their own letter. I will definitely be up for a private swap with Jessica in the future! Hugs and a heart from a very happy bard,
Judith
Response: You have made my day! i am so happy you like the papers i chose for you. From reading your profile, it appeared we had similar tastes, so i picked scraps i know i love. Thank you so much for the great rating and your kind words!
