Response: Hi Alma,
Thank You so much for your lovely letter. My health is being challenged as I have several surgeries I need to have over the next 6 months, as well as just not feeling well for the past 6 months. I appreciate your thoughts and prayers. I would enjoy doing our own swaps. Let me know about some swaps you would like to do, just you and me. I have a lot of stress, but doing art swaps also relaxes me as long as I have enough time to complete the project(s). Look forward to hearing from you.

Response: I am so glad that you like your heart ornament. I can't remember if I shared in my note that the idea came from a Christmas ornament I purchased at an "After Christmas Sale." The ornament was my inspiration. The ornament had buttons but they were sewn on and they had ribbons hung from the bottom, but they added bells. They also added sequins and other items sewn on. However, the ornament was my inspiration for the heart I made for you for this swap. I am so glad that you like it as I sure had a great time making it. Happy February to you. Barb

Glad to hear you will be re-cycling the snowman card. I've been doing the same thing with cards I receive so I can use them in the future. Have a great rest of the week.
Response: I'm glad you like reading about my thought process. I like sharing about it as well. I hope I get to receive a Skinny from you as well. Barb
Response: The kits I'm referring to are from a woman in Ft. Collins, Colorado. They are incredible. Go to Google and put in Paula's Kit Club and that will help get you to her site. Then you can go to her site and look around and see the kinds of things you get in a kit, what you can create and more. She is also a wonderful woman as she purchases from over 100 diferent places to put her kits together so you are not getting the kind of supplies you see around everyday. You also get a rubber stamp in most every kit (this does depend some on price). Hope this helps you some and makes you curious enough to go visit it.

Barb
Response: I am so happy that you liked everything that I sent. It is such a pleasure to do packages like these to get notes back like yours. The reason is that I have made you feel special, put a smile on your face, made you feel better, etc. I go above and beyond in many cases because it makes me feel good and it warms my heart even more when I receive notes back like yours. This is a difficult world to be in some days. If I can do something small to make it a little better, I am happy to do it. Enjoy all your goodies.
Response: I am so glad that you liked all that was in the package. I am happy about the fabric--the one with the ornaments is from an artist by the name of Laurel Burch. She does incredible fabrics. This swap made me stretch myself when it came to some colors and that was fun for me.
Response: I am so glad it was worth the wait. I am glad it made you squeal too. I loved it so much, it was hard for me to put in the box and send it away. However, it makes me feel good that I put it into the box and sent it to you and that it went to a good home. Thank you.

Response: Hello,
Thank you for such a kind message about the puzzle book I sent you for this swap.
I am so glad that you like the puzzle book I put together for you. I had a wonderful time designing and creating it for you. I can't remember if I told you, but the rest of the pages not used, are for you to add additional puzzles. I also sent some of the paper I used to add some color to each page. I know I did not send enough for the pages leftover. If you want to have enough to complete your book, I got the package of paper at Staples. Happy Puzzling!!!
Barb
Response: I am so glad that you were pleased with your Swap-bot Organizer. I hope it makes sense and that it is done in such a way that you will be able to use it effectively. Thank you so much for the lovely, kind words. I don't always get all my swaps out on time, but what I sent you is the kind of quality I always try to share with my partners. Quality is much more important to me and sometimes that takes a lot of time. I know I am not late on this swap. I was just sharing with you that work I do is always my very best. I'm glad that my hard work is appreciated. Again, thank you so much for your kind and caring words. You made my day!
Barb
Response: Yes, I have enjoyed getting to know you too. Maybe we can just check-in with one another periodically through e-mail or by snail mail. Let me know if that might work for you? Will add you to my letter writing list. Have a nice weekend. Thank you for the great rating and for your very kind message. We'll be in touch.
