They’re awesome cards :slight_smile: Mixed media is so fun. The images go really well with the backgrounds you’ve made!

@endymion your vintage cards are cracking me up :slight_smile: I especially love the “Jokes about plaid” one… too funny!! And the expressions on the people’s faces :joy: Too good!

@curiousfae So glad you like it! It looks like the watercolour “bled” over the acrylic over time… the wing on the left looks “washed over…” oops! I have learned my lesson, no more cheap watercolours… The ones from the $ store are… not great. But at least you can still see the majority of the butterfly and the rainbow anyway :slight_smile: The little imperfections give it character. I’ll keep telling myself that :joy:

@geekgirl, I love the colours on your cards!

So glad you like your cards, @Lynx and @GeekyBookworm!

Today was a difficult day for various reasons, but then I decided to take a break, get out of the house and get to the lake by myself on this unseasonably hot day in Eastern Ontario. It was 28 degrees C/82.4 degrees F!

The visit to the lake was doubly special because I stopped by the mailbox on my way out and found 2 envelopes there from Lettuce Crafters! And I got to enjoy them while looking at beautiful Lake Ontario.

From @saranethx, a nod to the fall season with some beautiful leaves:

And I love the stamps, too :blush:

And from @GeekyBookworm, this adorable frog in a wizard’s hat!

I love the stamps on this envelope, too :blush:

I love my cards; thank you both!

And from @megwell a really cool geometric piece where she let me know that Oct 1 is national CD Player Day :smile:

Loving the street art/tattoo vibes of the first one, and the geometrics/brights of the last one. More super cool cards!

I had the whole thing written up and addressed, and then like an hour later I realized I’d given you the holiday with your initials :laughing:.

I received a beautiful neurographic art card from @geekgirl!

The photo didn’t capture the shimmer/sparkle that some of the colours have very well, so it’s even prettier in person.

Thank you!

I received my very happy card from @wittychild ! We finally got to swap after, what, at least 15 years of hanging around in these crafty woods?! :smiley: And I’m so glad we did because this is the perfect pop of brightness and positivity I needed!

Photos just don’t capture the actual beauty of all of these cards! The background is nice and subtle sparkly paper.

I love it and it’s already hanging in my office. Thank you!

I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence or if you saw it on my profile, but I think you made a great choice with the sailor girl for my card–I was a “sailor girl” for 7 years, serving in the Canadian Naval Reserves from 2001-2008.

I like to joke that I sailed a desk for 7 years. I was a clerk, and thus never went on a ship :joy:

I did try to purposely select which cards I sent to which partner. :slight_smile: I thought she also had a tiny bit of that 1940-50’s swing dance-y aesthetic. So glad it was a good choice!

HI All,

Just checking on the status of a few outstanding cards.

@wittychild have you received cards from me (geekgirl) or Megwell yet?

@LovelyMiss have you received from LindyBlues yet?

@LindyBlues have you received from LovelyMiss yet?

If you have received, I apologize, keeping up with multiple partners is challenging!

If you haven’t received by Monday then we will ask the makers of the outstanding cards to remake/resend.
