on lined paper the other day!
It was just like the olden days!
Inside she stuck a little stitching for me!
Anna and family just moved from California to Oman!
So she's not been able to update her blog for awhile...
but soon!
(if you ever play Blog Trivial Pursuit...
Anna left the very first comment on my blog...over 500 posts ago!)
Patty won a giveaway from me a week ago...
it had some lace in it that I had dyed.
She scanned the lace and printed it out and made a card for me!!!!
Don't you love it? And she stuck some collage goodies inside and mailed it to me!
I love getting mail from the blog world!
Nathalie sent me this old newspaper from 1959.
I wanted it to use in gift wrapping special items,
but it is so fun to read!
You can find great things in her Ruby Floy Etsy Shop...
and if there are no old newspapers there, just ask!
Next is a get well card that Margaret sent me from Switzerland!
Below is an ATC that Christy Grant sent me!
I kind of left hints on her blog about loving it!
When I mail cards out...if I use a real greeting card, I try and alter it somehow.
I was mailing a sympathy card this week to a girl in my "real life". Sympathy cards don't lend themselves to altering really.... but I sewed some lace across the top.
I thought that was perfect since it was her grandmother she lost.
Mail someone some of your creativity today!

This is a lovely lot of mail - so many sweet things. Anna's stitching is so pretty - I have one similar to add to my sampler when it arrives.
Oh MY this post is full to the brim with sweet and lovely things (my little thank you card included, surprise ... surprise!)
Such pretty things and I really appreciate the time you spent putting in all of the linkie links too Ms Linda!
