				Response: I received a previous journal with a bread pocket in it and liked the idea so much I used it here.  Glad you liked the journal. v

				Response: Thank you.  For the background I collaged text pieces onto a large sheet, tissue papered over that, then added bits of light paint and stamping.  When cards were cut from the large piece, I added stenciled images.  I love making a large piece then cutting cards out of that.

				Response: I'm so glad you liked it.  It was created on a gray, rainy day and it did feel like sunshine.  Here in the Pacific NW we'll take sunshine any way we can get it.

				Response: Strange.  There were no torn stamps that I noticed.  They were on pieces torn  off their envelopes, but the stamps themselves were fine.  I'm sorry you feel you didn't get a good swap.  I'll send some more stamps.

				Response: Sorry.  I always try to put the name of the swap in, but I must have forgotten that time.  I know how frustrating it is to go back through one's swaps trying to make a match.
			
					 
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
				
			
			
	
	
			
	
	
				
						
				Response: You're right!  I looked back at the illustration.  I thought it was a button fairy on an ATC--that's what it looks like.  Want to make an exchange for a real one?

				Response: The coin was on the bamboo button (the only one I had.)  I can send you a coin with a brad attachment loop to be put in the blank space at the top of the card.

				Response: If its a reddish background with scratches and glitter, its watercolor crayon on watercolor paper, then brushed heavily with a wet watercolor brush and scratched with the bristles of a hairbrush and some glitter paint spread on thinly.  If its some other background, remind me which ones you got.

				Response: How kind you are!  I just got a swap with a bunch of different handmade swap cards and now I'm feeling like I didn't put enough effort into the cards I sent.  One of these days I'll get the hang of what this site is all about -- I hope!  Vee
