It would be nice to get fun mail for a change! :)

GeorgiaMa'am 04-03-2021 04:58 PM

Somebody brought up a good point today. Unlike most of our past projects, I will not be collecting and redistributing the projects. I am simply making a mailing list, much like we do for holiday cards, and distributing the addresses to everybody. Therefore, everyone who participates will have each others' addresses. Participants will mail their projects directly to the recipients.

Also, there's no need to send money to me since you will be handling your own postage.

Sorry for any confusion. Is this a problem for anyone?

Nope, works for me..........:hangloose:

I'm not much of a artsy crafty person so I'll be sending cards only!

No problems here

Super excited about this!

GeorgiaMa'am 04-06-2021 12:07 AM

How exciting! The first batch of addresses has been sent out by PM. If you didn't get it, it's because either (1) you didn't sign up, or (2) you didn't PM me your address. I know there are others who are interested, so send me that info!

Clay, do you want me to sign you up? Are you still having trouble with that?

Gemme 04-12-2021 08:49 PM

Got my first card today! Thanks!

homoe 04-20-2021 02:24 PM

As Dean Martin used to famously say....
 
"keep those cards and letters coming in".

~~
So far I've received several beautiful cards......:gotmail:

Breathless 04-20-2021 10:35 PM

I am interested, please sign me up!

Gemme 04-21-2021 07:40 PM

I got a butterfly! I got a butterfly!

So happy!

Orema 05-12-2021 08:45 AM

Received cards with bears (I ain't scared!), legs, a guitar playin' lady, and warm letters. Thank you for thinking of me!

Address list!
 
Hi! I can't remember who sent out the address list for this round of the card exchange, but with the server update, it's not in my inbox anymore. I was just looking for it to start sending cards, and it's gone. Could somebody please send it to me again? Thanks!

PoeticSilence 09-03-2021 09:33 AM

Thank you to the five people who sent out cards for this project.

At Halloween in fact I sent several cards and wrote inside " Yup, ghosts and gobbling's are scary, but not as scary as a pandemic"!

I re-connected with two friends from Milwaukee, during Covid, that I had lost track of, and have sent each numerous cards. One is a real movie buff and got most of her DVD's thru the library rental system, but once Covid hit, and that wasn't possible, I sent her several DVD's as well.

To be honest I can't say I've received more cards during Covid, but IMHO "tis better to give than receive" still holds true for me, even during a pandemic!

I'm still sporadically sending out cards, notes, news articles, etc etc !

It makes me happy thinking I just might of made someone laugh or brighten up their day.

I'm ready to craft!!

I'll be willing to do a quick 4-5 week turn around of Halloween ATC cards. Any one interested?? Very easy peasy, to at least bring our supplies out of lock down!

Maybe a December Holiday one to follow??

I don't know about a December craft project. The holidays are a hectic time and usually the card exchange keeps me busy enough. The Halloween ATC project though sounds fun. Oh I was just asking myself what I might make out of things I have on hand or supplies that wouldn't be too spendy and in a flash it came to me! If we do a week for sign up, and around the same number of people who've participated in the past join in this round I could do it in a four or five week window of time, though five would be better. Anyone else interested?

homoe 09-04-2021 04:15 PM

refresh my memory please....
