Comment: Thank you so much for another neat christmas-parcel! I love those fun swaps - extravaganza is one of my favourites already :) Have a wonderful weekend! EDIT: I love everything you sent!! Have a fabulous 2015 :)
Comment: What a fun goal you completed this month! It sounds like a very special time. If it helps, a new holiday tradition I started for myself a couple years ago is to buy myself a new pair of PJs for Christmas Eve. Also, my brother started a tradition a couple years ago where he reads the Grinch to his kids before they go to bed on Christmas Eve. Just in case either appeals to you...Good luck with November!
Comment: Thank you for the generous selection of pretty purple washi tapes! How fun that you had the one I chose to put as the swap picture (I didn't have that one). :) :)
Comment: Howdy, Neighbor! I was just out your way this past Friday. I went withy son and family to pick apples. Love the recipe. May have to tone down the jalapeños a bit, but looks great. Thank you.
Comment: Wow- FOUR done in one month! That's a great month! I'm heading to the Blue Ridge Mountains tomorrow, but I won't be making it as far as the Blue Ridge Brewery! Congrats on all your progress. Keep it up!
Comment: Love the washi! I would have given you a heart but you sent me green washi vs blue! lol seems like both my partners sent me green instead of blue. too bad i didnt sign up for the gren one lol
Comment: Good washi!!! the blue with the round symbols - what is the theme/subject/name of that tape...I thinking boy scout, native American, some online game?!?!? Never mind its "Advengers" - can you tell I don't have kids?!??!
Comment: Thank you! I have been wondering about Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore and you have been just the push I needed to pick it up. Happy reading!
Comment: Can't wait to see what's inside this cute little package! Thank you. :) UPDATE 12/26: thank you for the awesome washi samples and the ephemera.
Comment: Thanks so much for my Halloween package! I love it. And this was the perfect day to get it too :). It's actually cold out for the first time. I'm sharing the chocolate with my boys and putting on the socks. <3 everything.
Comment: OH, this swap is a very difficult one.. Thank you so much for your envelope! Oh my, I have to wait THREE months to open it. That is difficult indeed :) All the best! EDIT: Thank you very much for a lovely package of ephemera <3
Comment: Hi! Thanks for a great batch of fun stuff-- I especially like all the washi, the vintage-look recipe card, and the adorable handmade envelope. :)
Comment: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE GOODIES. I SAW WAYS I CAN USE EACH ITEM AS I WAS GOING THRU IT. YOU REALLY OUT-DID YOURSELF. I WOULD GIVE YOU MORE HEARTS IF I COULD. THANKS SO MUCH!!!
Comment: Heather, thank you so so so much! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you resending this swap. Everything was so great! I truly loved the variety. The stickers were so cute and I had so much fun looking through all the ephemera. Thanks again for your kindness!
Comment: Thank you for your wonderful recipes! I am going to my son's house this weekend in Tenn. and am going to make your mashed potato recipe. Yummy! I am so excited that I have some new recipes to try out.
thanx for sharing.
swapper blessings,
Comment: What a generous goal you had, with tipping. I can imagine how fun that must be, especially at some place you frequent. Great job on making progress on other goals as well; I love the idea of reading books before watching the movies :-)
Comment: Thank you for the yummy recipes. I've tried to make broccoli cheese soup before and ended up scorching it so bad I had to pour out the whole pot. :( I'll definitely give this one a shot.
Comment: Thanks for all the wonderful ggodies you sent me! I can't wait to start using them in my collages and Smashbooks! Take care and happy swapping!
So sorry for the late rating!
Comment: Hi Heather, Thank you for the great salad recipes you sent and the extra recipe card. Can't wait to try they. The sell fresh smoked chicken at our local grocery. Enjoy the day! Demaris
Comment: Thank you for the yummy sounding recipes for soups :-) I will be trying the tomato one very soon, as my garden is starting to ripen ! The potato one will be great for a cold fall day, which is coming sooner than I want it to!
Comment: Yummy recipes. Cute cards as well. Where did you find these? You gave such fun ones. Don't I have all of them from your collection by now? LOL.
Comment: Thank you for such a fun swap. It was fun unwrapping all the packages! Some will decorate my office at work and others will decorate my house and the pumpkin stone will decorate me! Thank you again!
Comment: Thank you for the lovely envelopes. Especially the one made out of a magazine page, and the one with the Florida pic on it. But they are all unique and wonderful. Smiles Elizabeth (Jbeth)
Comment: Thank you for your yummy recipes. That shrimp one sounds right my alley. I liked how you used washi tape around the edges of the recipe card. Very clever. I appreciate the extra blank recipe cars that you included too.
Comment: Two completed this month! Excellent work! The 100 books before they become films list is a HUGE goal! I'm a slow reader, so I'm in awe of it. Great work so far!
Comment: Heather WOW!! First before even opening the package I was so excited with the awesome stamps you used! Then when I saw the fabric I was really WOWed! I love all of the awesome fabric, thank you so very much! Kelly :)
Comment: Thank you for sending great samples, and taking time to package them carefully. I love the idea of wrapping them around old gift cards. I'm going to repurpose some of the seemingly millions of old hotel keys I have the same way.
Comment: I love Minnie! She is so cute and will look right at home hanging from the handle of one of the cupboards in my motor home! And her little suitcase is adorable. Thank you!
Comment: Thank you for your Pinterest swap! I love my no limits with my Kindle as well. Ereaders are amazing!! I pinned the one about different types of readers to look at later.
Comment: LOVE the bacon tape - I need to share this with a friend who is working on a scrapbook for her hubby...when she stops laughing she will thank you too!!!!
Comment: You did an amazing job on this swap! I really love the way you decorated the envelopes with Washi tape, and everything else that you included. Thank you!
Comment: What a fabulous crafty care package - I LOVE everything! The little pin cushions are precious, and I love the pin/needle holder - I needed one of those and it's perfect! The fat quarters are wonderful, too. Thank you so much! <3 <3 <3
Comment: Happy to see a neighbor on Swap-bot. I don't think that I have ever seen someone else from SC either. Can't believe that we're so close too. I'm not but about 45 minutes away. My son actually lives there. Thanks so much for the great recipe. I will definitely try it soon.
Comment: You did a great job sending things for the theme. As much as I love the music from Phantom-I didn't have a CD of it and thanks to you now I do! Great selection-such interesting variety-thanks for sharing and being a great partner
Comment: Actually the swap required that the items be mostly handmade and only your washi paperclips are handmade. Nevertheless, thanks for sending the sticky notes and washi tape samples :)
Comment: hi heather, thank you for the swap.. (actually the swap calls for minimum of 40 x 40 stitches), nonetheless, I see you've put in effort in the ornament, hence not marking down. Happy swapping, thanks. :D
Edited 20/7/2014: *Oops My Sincere Apologies... I got mixed up with another swap.. Sorry about that.. Once again, thank you for the ornament and happy swapping. Cheers
Response: I'm so sorry, I didn't see anything in the swap listing a stitch size! Thanks for the feedback.
Comment: Thank you for all the great book items. I understand about the problem you had with the customs form, but it is always good to let your partner know.
Comment: Thank you for the pretty card, your note, and all the fun washi snippets you included inside and on the back too. FUN! Back to collage eh? Good for you!
Comment: I am giggling over this polio envelope. Where in the world did you get it? I am saving that part of the envelope- for something- I don't know what. LOL. Thank you for so many wonderful washi samples. You made my day.
Response: Glad you like it! My Dad designs first day covers and I use his leftover blanks for swap mail. It's a win win since I clear his clutter & don't have to buy envelopes!
Comment: I am so sorry it has taken me so long to send you this rating. I have been having a lot of problems logging onto swapbot since they did their update. I finally got it fixed. I loved everything you sent me thank you.
Comment: Thank you for your answers. How was S.? I really want to read it! I had a fever shortly after reading Never Let Me Go and hallucinated that I had to donate my organs and I was worried that the fever would affect them. O_o
Response: I loved S., but it's certainly a different type of book. I don't know how but it even has that old book smell fresh out of the wrapper
Comment: What a great job Heather, I was hoping to get "Halloween" since I really don't have much. I love all the variety of tags, paper, especially the colored house with the witches feet sticking out it's just too cute! The trim is just perfect along with the buttons and brads I love it all and can't wait to use it in my projects. You really went all out and I thank you so much :). Wish I could give you a higher rating with lots of hearts you sure deserve it :)
Comment: Oh My!!! I got home and there was a package on my door! the mail person had delivered it to someone else, and my neighbors are sooo cool they put it on my door, even balanced it on the door knob :D I brought it in, I will admit I was in a bumming mood because I had just left my mom's house and I miss her. So any how this was a wonderful surprise at my front door lol. Anyhow! This package is soooo awesome!!!!!!!! I am new to filofax stuffs. The clippies oh my! The altered paperclips (I have ribbons and I have paperclippies!!! So I have plans or making some :D) The little cards! The washi tape! I honestly have 1 roll of washi tape, I don't use it very often but I am learning about washi tape!!! It is sooo fun! Thank you sooo much and so neat how you put it on the cards! I love it!!!! The memo pad and the little white circle deals for holes (hole protector deals) I only have white lol and I color them! Oh Heather you spoiled me lol! Thank you so much, I hope you don't mind me sending you something...you have no idear how happy and excited you made me (wipes tear). Heather you are special! Thank you very much :D Talk about perfect timing :D Super sized hugs. Thank you very much Heather.
Comment: Love the washi tapes you sent! I cannot wait to use them in my planner. I already have plans for the Love washi and the yellow lace washi. LOVE IT! Thanks again for the lovelies. :)
Comment: Ooooh! This IS some nice and weird washi! The bacon washi wins! LOL! And I do love the "bazinga" tape, thanks for noticing my mention of the Big Bang Theory :) I would have to bash Sheldon in real life but love the show- lol. Thanks for all and thanks for joining my swap! :)
Comment: Thank you so much for sending not one but two yummy-sounding sangria recipes! They both sound delicious - not sure which to try first, but I am definitely going to make one of them for a summer party this year. Actually, the apple one would be great for a fall party so maybe I will do that! Really cute recipe cards too! Thank you for joining my swap :)
Comment: Hi Heather, I received your mail today and the tapes you've sent are great! Thanks very much for sending PL journal cards to me too, love them!
Comment: If I could give you extra hearts I would. I love the gingerbread men and the angel stamped images. Where did you get the angel stamps??? I want to order some.
Comment: Thank you for the delicious sounding recipe! I look forward to making it and even read it over with my (often picky) fiance. I actually like the idea of throwing chicken in. I used to not eat much meat but now and with a meat-loving man so it worked perfectly. Thanks also for the secondary recipe for the toilet fizzies. I will definitely be making those as well!
Comment: WOW!!! Thank you sooooo much! You went way way way over and beyond for me!! Thank you sooo much I really really appreciate the effort you put into the swap for me!!! thank you so much !!!
