Comment: Fantastic mail art. I love the vintage stamps you used, especially the full set of the dance stamps and the beach scene which is one of my favorites. Nice to read your note, too. It brought back memories of when I used the Franklin Covey planner system daily for work. It sure kept me organized. Thanks so much for the first day cover and the vintage stamps - they're all great, and the Audubon stamp is my favorite all time stamp. I actually don't have many of them, so it's a real treat to receive a block. Many thanks!

Comment: Pretty red pictures, thanks. And you sent it in a red envelope! Rich

Comment: Thank you so much! I looooove the stamps ❤️ and some are the old style print with texture 😍. Plus that you wrote about them. I love it all, also what's inside the envelope, but I can't deny how delightful is looking at the stamps

Comment: Thank you very much!

Comment: Always nice to get mail from you. I hope to visit the postal museum this summer. Be well

Comment: What an incredible swap!! The envie covered in stamps set the scene for a selection of beautiful photos, and a great letter. Thank you so much! My DH and I took our 3 daughters to Canada every summer for a while, by way of KC to Duluth (home of Bob Dylan) and the next day on north thru Virginia to Orr. There, we took a bitty road on north to Crane Lake. The fishing camp where we were headed sent a (water) plane to pick us up and fly us into Campbells Cabins fishing camp on Lac la Croix! No tv, no internet but yes a motor boat and a week to have adventures together. Good memories of Minnesota and the Boundary Waters. Thanks again!!

Comment: Hi Lou! Thank you for the create a pc from the Illinois State Bird card that I sent to you back in 2020! LOL! I love that you doctored it up with the facts about the cardinal being the state bird for seven states! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)

Comment: Thank you so much for your awesome handmade card! I love it and you are so very kind to include all the goodies, stickers, and stamps! I will check the postal website out right now. And I loved how you used all the vintage stamps on your envie, you are so sweet! Happy Valentine's Day!💕

Comment: Thanks for the handmade card! I loved it:) Even though I'm not big fan of red, but I can't say no to red when it comes to Valentines day! Also thanks for the stickers. Happy Valentines Day<3

Comment: What a lovely envie, thank you for the time, effort, and patience in arranging and pasting all the postage stamps. I had fun looking at the interesting and pretty washis too.

Comment: Lou you spoiled me! I love everything about this, from the LOVELY assortment of stamps you used to everything inside. Thank you for the older postage, I am going to have to find where to get some because seeing all the stamps on the envelope was so much fun! Thank you for your sweet note - what a great idea to use photos from the fair. The Texas State Fair is fun, and this year I will have to check out the Colorado Fair - its only about 45 minutes away so much easier to do than the Texas one was. I will report back. And thank you so so much for the variety of cards you sent!

Comment: Love the card you made <3 Such a pretty vintage Valentine!! As for the USPS.. UGH... Similar to your experience, I also didnt get a reply. Perhaps the timing was simply not right due to the inauguration and all of the new people coming into office etc.. I wont give up though, i believe if we all reach out, it will make a huge statement so I keep encouraging people to do just that!

Comment: Thanks

Comment: Thank you for the lovely note and items. Canada did have 2 ball teams. Once, we had the Montreal Expos, who later became the Washington Nationals. :)

Comment: Thank you for the great variety of stickers and the postage. I appreciate that you had them hand-canceled and thanks for the website suggestion.

Comment: Thank you so much for my planner stickers too!! It was a lovely envelope of goodies :)

Comment: Lou!! I love all the stamps on the envelope. And where did you get the MR Zip ones? I have NEVER been able to find anything Mr Zip to buy. Thank you also for the letter. I hope the package made it to your friend in the UK. DeJoy really is making our mail as difficult as possible - I've never had to be so specific on customs forms. I hope this year is full of some great mail and hopefully I'll see ya in some more swaps too. Edited to add: Also, thank you so much for the old stamps! That is so generous of you to share!

Comment: LOVED all the stamps and the note about the photographs. Just lovely and thoughtful all around!

Comment: Thank you for the photos, they made me smile! She looks a lot like Egypt, one of my sweet cats.

Comment: Hi Lou! Always great to be partners with you! Thank you for the great photos - I never get to see squirrels in an upright position, as MGM chases them every chance she gets! LOL! I also love seeing wild turkey! All the best! Hugs, Happy Swapping, and Snapping! ;)
