Spring Card Swap With Me?? Updated

     Morning, everyone, actually we are just past noon here where I live.

  I am finally feeling better and want to get back to my craft projects and writing. Just did not have the energy for any of that, but it is coming back to me Smiles.

     I am in the process of setting up papers to make a few spring cards for mailing off to friends.  If you would like to swap a Spring card with me, just send me a note from my contact link that is on my blog and include your address if I don't already have it. 

   Spring this year is March 19th   

  I forgot I lost all of my pretty spring flower photos when I got my new computer, so I found this one online.





 Good afternoon Saturday, I had fun making up my Spring cards over the last couple of days. Just finished them up. Made a little over a dozen all different this time.  Will stop by the post office next week to see how much postage I need. Made them bigger than I usually do.



Sunday: I will be mailing off the international cards on Monday, if anyone still interested I have a couple more cards left to mail out


Monday-Spring cards I had made are all ready to mail out soon-I look forward to sharing summer time cards

  10. What a fun idea you did creating Spring cards. Hoping Larry is doing alright. I think about the two of you often. Reminds me of when Bob had his stroke a few years back. He still has short term memory loss, but at least he can walk. Janice

    1. Thank you so much for thinking of us-late yesterday he was walking with his walker, I follow behnd with the wheel chair-and his leg just gave out with no notice and he fell and banged into the side of the wheelchair so today he felt sick and sore just when I think he is improving he gets a set back sigh.
      Larry has had several heart operations the last one he was told nothing more can be done for him this has all been a huge strain on his heart too.
      Take care hugs

  13. Sorry to be so late visiting. First about the postage. Measure your envelopes. They can be 11-1/2" by 6-1/8" and up to 1/4" thick. One ounce takes one 1st class stamp.

    I am sorry you have not been well. Nice to read you are feeling better and are making spring cards. I hope Larry is feeling better soon, too.

    Today (Tuesday) is 77 F and tonight is 22 F. Not a misprint. No wonder no one is feeling well with the change in temps like that. Hope the weather isn't that severe where you are.

    1. thank you Elizabeth, I had to go to the post office for something else so took one of my international cards-she said they would go through with one stamp as will the usa cards-these were large invitation envelopes so was happy I could use one stamp on them. I re use that thin brown shipping papers that you can tear off in smaller sheets-work nice for letters and cards.
      today we will be 80 and it is getting very windy as tonight wll drop to low 30's crazy weather for sure not good for the sinus's
      take care-hugs

    2. We broke a record high today with 80 F. Tonight still forecast for 22 F. At 5 pm it was 42 F. Dropping fast.

      Sorry to read about Larry. My thoughts are with both of you.

    3. We hit 80 degrees too but as I am typing this the t storms have arrived with strong winds-probably bringing in the cold-we are getting down to low 20's as well-stay safe and warm-hugs
