Comment: I'm impressed that the calendar uses illustrations instead of photos. What do you use to make the background? Nice effect!
Response: Thats a random collage of magazines, paint, stamping etc with some tissue to knock it down. It was super busy for a background at first. I collect a bunch of discarded cavellini calendars for the artwork.

Comment: Yay, a card from Carroll! I like the effect on that found paper, even if it did fade. So cool. Whose ink are you using? (Definitely pronghorn on that stamp; sadly, it was struck by the rabid pen scribble cancellation crew)
Response: Thank goodness! I was hoping the ram #2 card had not been lost in a snow storm. I use the Speedball water based inks, but I blame the old book page for the weird fading. I printed more with red first, and then black, and all went fine.

I loved the different techniques especially the collage and napkin overlay. Also the stamps really make it extra special too. I've got to check out my library recycle bin.Thanks a million.

Comment: What an AWESOME swap package, Carroll! The Haida Eagle postcard is fabulous. Native American art is one of my passions. (I'm still trying to figure out how your hand carving went wrong!) You sent so much other amazing stuff that I just can't thank you enough. I absolutely adore the Gees Bend postcards, fabric, San Francisco cloth, bookmark, napkins, envies, and the two Mastercarve blocks are more appreciated than you'll ever know! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for a wonderful swap :-) xoxo
Response: Isn't it fun to get trans-pacific art supplies in the mail?? I knew you were having trouble getting the master-carve blocks, and you have been making such fun eraser carvings, I knew you would put them to good use. Enjoy!!

I think I will have to follow your example and use a sturdier base card for my swaps, as my current ones do not do well in the post to the US and Canada. I have been really lucky with my partners on this swap - all three red postcards have arrived before the mail deadline.
Response: I use a frozen food box panel for my backing. It's sturdy enough to survive the USPS and Royal Mail postcard mangling machines.

Response: The eraser carved faux postage stamps with carved edges were made before I discovered the extra gummed paper at the edges of a postage stamp sheet. I still use them as rubber stamps, too.

Please let me know if you would like to know what mine looks like!

Comment: Hello, Carroll ... Please accept my appology for not rating you. I don't know how it slipped my mind because I loved the car of the beautiful butterfly! It was especially meaningful to me because about 2 days before getting it I found a butterfly just like it that had been injured , probably by a car. It was fluttering on the road and I stopped and got it and kept it with me in my car. It kinda looked like it had just been stunned and might live. I did some photos of it and just protected it, but it did soon die. I kept it and have it on the window sill in my kitchen. It sounds kinda crazy, but I felt blessed to have the chance to have that close encounter with such a pretty and delicate creature. Therefore, your lovely card was most approiate and welcome to me. Thanks.
Response: Wow! Another coincidence. Too bad the swallowtail butterfly didn't survive, but she might live on in your art.

I went to UCD then graduated from Chabot College, Hayward, as a dental hygienist. The ice cream parlor in old Arroyo Grande was Bernardoz. It has been replaced by Doc Burnstein's Ice Cream Laboratory. Both are excellent. Best wishes, Sherry
Response: Hi Sherry, Glad you liked my Tree card. Tom's a CalPoly grad in Enviro Eng. from 1982, but he didn't finish his Senior project until 1985. ( go figure!) His advisor lived in Arroyo Grande.

I feel so fortunate each time I receive one because you always come up with a very unique way to represent the letter. This postcard for "X" is no different. I love how you have used old textbooks to help build these postcards. I need to get my hands on a few textbooks, especially science and social studies ones. I am excited to add another of your fabulous postcards to my "A-Z Postcard Collection." I look forward to swapping with you in the future. Happy Swapping! Barb sleepingrover2010 P.S.

Comment: Hello Caroll, Thank you for the very thoughtful postcard you sent to me for the "E is for..." Swap. I really like how you took the time to check out my profile and design a postcard that tied itself to something in my profile. I have really liked this swap as I have received some great postcards and yours will certainly be added to that group. Since joining Swap-bot, I have started collecting postcards and I have developed quite a collection and I will proudly add yours to this collection. I am thinking this is our first time to meet and swap with one another. If I'm wrong, please forgive me. Either way, I hope we have many more opportunities to swap with one another. Until that time arrives, Happy Holidays and Happy Swapping. Barb sleepingrover2010 Barb sleepingrover2010
Response: Barb, I'm glad you liked the "E" card. It was a flash back to all the trouble I used to get into in school for talking too much in the back row.

Comment: Thank you for the great ATC's. I loved the recycled papers you sent with them. I actually work for a trash company and try to recycle as much as possible. I think that may be why I loved them so much.
Response: Glad you liked them. I made the paper recycling ATCs for the garbage art booth at the Maker Faire in San Mateo. I didn't want to come across as lecturing every one about recycling, and pollution, so I tried to make it "arty".
