2012 BIRTHDAY SWAP

[Sharon]

that's it closed the door

no more

the Bus is full, sorry to those who have missed out...

OK girls lets go...

My four for August went out this afternoon. They all cost the same $1.25 even though they all went to different countries.  I also put them all in the cellophane sleeves that I had recently bought.   The lady hand stamped/cancelled them then I closed the taped end so they are nice and protected.  I know some have been posting their likes/dislikes as far as ideas.  I will be happy with whatever comes my way.  As one of you said I enjoy seeing what others can do.  It's fun to see all the different ideas come to fruition.

My August cards have gone out today. Hopefully Patricia, you'll get yours on time. Shazz, I know you'll get yours but you have to put it away until your birthday and don't peek, which will be difficult seeing I posted them in clear packets !!!

I hope all the August girlies, Patricia, Shelley, Helen & Shazz like them and get a buzz out of receiving them "naked"........and I hope you all have wonderful birthdays.

Hi  August Birthday girls,  your cards will be a bit late, I have been quite ill the last 4 weeks but am back home and will get cracking  Helen

Hi Melody, Thank you, my card arrived on Saturday, what a wonderful surprise. I love it, the colours are just what I need this dreary rainy winter weekend.

I think I wrote my last note in the wrong spot, but I did mail out my four birthday cards to our swap friends. I was surprised that each card cost the same amount - $1.05. I figured that the further away the card had to travel, the more it would cost. But that was not the case. My birthday is in Sept., then there's one in Oct., and three in Nov. So I'd better get started on the next batch. It's fun thinking up what to do next! Best to all, Melody

[Patricia Gellon]

Thanks to Kim and Melody. I received to lovely cards from you. This is putting me on birthday mood. I'll start thinking in presents with enough time, so no delay excuses accepted.

Hi Helen, sorry to hear you've been ill, I hope you're on the mend now.

Hi Kim, received your card today, thank you, I'm in a birthday mood already, love this "naked" cards, am hunting for celophane packets all over. I use the squishy envelopes which  goes thru the postal services as packages.
