Comment: Great king and what a huge K in the corner! I love to do kings, always have lots of images, I wonder if that is a guy thing. Really liked your choice of materials and backgrounds and I'm a Van Gogh fan so really appreciated the art cards you included. Thank you for everything!

Comment: I love your watercolor rose. I agree Winsor Newton watercolors are a good quality brand. I love my set. They also last a long time. You will be painting a long time with them. I also agree pink is hard to do. I'm glad your enjoying swapping in the group. ((Hugs)) Thank You.

Comment: Chris, this is really a great skinny. I was really curious what was under the pumpkin gift tag (nice brad by the way) and was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be another pumpkin -- tickled my mind. Loved all of your materials. It was so different that what I did, which makes it even more fun. And thanks for the extras, they look like miniature pieces of wallpaper. Thanks for doing this private swap.

Received my fatbook watercolour page today - thank you so much, I really love it. I'm afraid once September hits, here in Canada (well, my part of it anyways) - there is always a significant change - it can go from 30C days to 14 days practically overnight. We might get frost this week. We don't have a lot of leaves down yet, but once we get a frost, that will change instantly. I will miss the summertime fun in the sun. Still, I do love what autumn has to offer - I believe I will take the kids camping later in the month - it's an entirely different experience than summer camping, and one which I'd like to share with them.

Thank you so much for the beautiful ATC and your thoughtfulness in sending the little fairy book to add to my collection. . . and I'm glad I didn't seem too harsh on the postcard versus the notecard thing!!!
