Your first postcard for the PC diary swap arrived! I loved it, thank you, I love to visit museums :) I'm looking forward to your next postcard! Have a great week :)
Thank you for joining Flag Postcard Swap #1!
Hi girl!
Just dropping by to invite you to join the new swap in the Butterfly Anarchists group, cheer up and join us.
What are you Reading now? Round 2
Thank you so much for your marvelous letter and the enclosures! I want to keep the yarn out and fondle it, but I bet my cats do too ;) I'll will reply as soon as my brain & time allow.
I'm with you on the Zazzle PCs - a lot of our local stores are selling local artists' postcards that are printed via Zazzle or Vistaprint. It doesn't bother me, but I know some people feel very strongly about store-bought cards.
I just invited you to be a member of Classroom ATC. Have you ever thought it would be fun to have you kids trade art with other students from around the world. I'm an art teacher from Minnesota, USA and I want to do a ATC trade with other art teachers so we can have a professional conversation to see if Swap-bot might assist in Classroom ATC Trades. Join our swap and group if you want to learn more.

I got your letter today! I will write back soon!
Hope, i apologize for not writing you back (after our postcard journal thing) - I think you're way cool and still plan to carry out my letter writing campaign. I HAVE actually started a letter, but I just can't seem to get my act together on finishing it... sorry I'm such a slob! Ann
Oh my! Thanks for the adorable mini zine you sent, angelling the pen-pal intro zine swap! It's so great (but I don't know what you meant when you said you used 'Pandora'. Eep! I don't understand American references sometimes)
(Also, I just about died when you said you had a friend who knew all the Elephant 6 guys!)

Yes...I completely agree!
