Comment: With apologies for the very late comment... A huge thank you for the Jigglypuff ATC, and the Marker of Doom. I just /had/ to go and watch a clip on Youtube. Now I got the song stuck in my head lol. I love the pokeball card holder too, it's so clever ! ^_^
Comment: Thanks for the swap and your lovely photos. I love the cactus pic and am glad you didn't change lenses for it.
I love the AZ desert and try to schedule visits there for the spring bloom but it is such a short and erratic time.
Sorry for the delay in rating. I just found a bunch of swaps in my spam folder. Going to have to look at that more often.
Comment: Hi Ann! I’m sorry for the late rating-sometimes email swaps get flagged and then overlooked-sigh! Loved your photos and how awesome that you travel for work & got some great photos! All the best! Hugs, Happy Snapping & Swapping! ;)
Comment: What a wonderful selection of photos! Your friend's cat is so focused on the ribbon.You did a great job on the embroidery. I like all the colors and stitches you used. Your job sounds fun with all the international travel you get to do!
Comment: I LOVED your photos and descriptions! Thanks so much! I especially loved your flower images. The bee one is fantastic! And such an interesting flower! What is that? Thanks for sharing!
Response: I'm not sure what that flower is; it was in a garden. I think it might be a foxglove.
Comment: I love the little paper craft design of my rune! My landlord recently sold the house we are living in and suddenly I had to move. Radical change, indeed!!;🤯. *BB
Comment: I love the Jupiter postcard! Your dream was really interesting to read about too, lots of details and I appreciate you fitting as much in the space as you could. Thank you so much for sharing and joining my swap ~ I hope to see you in future rounds of the dream postcards!
Comment: What a beautiful nature journal! I so enjoyed reading it -- and will go back to it again for a second enjoyable read. Thank you so much for making it for me.
Comment: Thank you for such a beautiful card and envelope!! I really loved your drawings with gel pen on the black envie!! I don't quite know what to do with your divination information?
Comment: Hi Ann, I loved looking at your pictures and reading the comments! Thank you for providing such interesting text to go with the pictures. And the pictures are great. I particularly like the picture of the zorro and the bee (and that fascinating plant that the bee is standing on) but I enjoyed all five. Thanks for joining the swap.
Comment: Thank you for this postcard scategories swap. I like how different your answers were from mine, and gives me a couple things to research and look into! I love that about swaps like this. Thanks again. Happy swapping!
Comment: Wow I am so impressed by your photos and all the explanations. So nice to get a little reward for walking all the trails - I hopy you get it. The photos were very nice quality and I love that you found some special treasures with the moss, lichens and adorable mushrooms. It was also educational which is great. Well done!!
Comment: Thank you about your reading. The balance with the opposites is very hard to balance. I'm having such a hard time currently with a old friendship and it's because of the total opposite and I'm going to give up maybe. I'm still not sure what to do. Your deck is very beautiful!
Comment: This is one of my favorite pieces that I've received. The mammoth 🦣 was such a original choice and I love that the choice had a "why" behind it. Thank you for sharing the story of the mammoth and putting such thought and time into it. Much appreciated. Happy Swapping.
Comment: Thank you for the lovely handmade watercolor postcard! The scene you painted is quite interesting and colorful. I really enjoyed the time traveller message on the back too. Such a fun swap! Thank you again! :)
Comment: Thank you for the crop circles ATC! I enjoyed the little alien drawing and story about the alien video you played growing up too - that was a cool touch! Thanks also for joining my swap! :)
Comment: Thank you for a wonderful letter! Your handwriting is exceptional, and very beautiful. I have WAY too many hobbies too! We seems to have a lot in common :)
Comment: Thank you for the ATC. I love your art. I didn't know that about the hieroglyphics! That's a fun fact. I know that the cartouche, oval around something, makes it a name. Also thank you for the lottle birdy card!
Comment: Ann thank you so much for the astrology ATC! I love the pretty watercolors and the scorpio constellation! Plus the notecard/envelope you used is lovely and the rat lunar new year stamp! I always cut off and save postage and I don't have one of these yet. Thank you for a great swap and for joining in my first hosted group swap! Hope to swap again soon :)
Comment: You know, I always associate Exeggcute and Exeggutor with grass first, and I was sort of surprised to be reminded of their psychic abilities lol. I love your ATC and all its eggy goodness. Your packaging skills are amazing. I loved picking the card from the pokéball. ^___^
Comment: I love the postcard you made - the goat is so cool and I love the colors you chose to paint with. Also love that you made it Capricorn! It's been put on my mirror so I can see it all the time. Thank you so much! :)
Comment: Thank you Ann for the planet Mercury post card! I loved your answers as they were completely different than mine! Was that a Greek translation on some of the answers?
Response: Glad you liked it! And yes, that was the Greek spellings of the deity names.
Comment: Ahaha, I forgot about the cosmetics brand! These are great, though. I appreciate the modern day dinosaurs, really adds a certain kick to my profile. Thanks for the images!
Comment: Thank you for sharing your decks! I have the Thoth one like yours - I haven't used it. I'm kinda scared of it, not sure why! I haven't seen the others so far. They're all so pretty! :) I think that's what always draws me to different decks - I love the artwork and symbolism in them. :)
Comment: Thank you so much for your letter and the gorgeous bit of silver embroidery!! I loved how intimate and descriptive your letter about your imbolc ritual was. I felt like I was right there feeling the cold and seeing the beauty!! Thank you so much for joining my swap and I hope to do it again in the future.
Comment: Thank you for your dwarf and the whole backstory behind him ! It was as much fun to read your not than to open the beautiful little packet to reveal your ATC. ^_^
Comment: Dear Ann, Thank you SO MUCH for your amazing Tarot reading. You in-depth interpretations of the cards you drew were extremely helpful! I currently definitely find myself lost in negativity and obstacles. The Knight of Cups and Death totally make sense to me too. I had/have to let go of the idea (the dream/vision) of how healing would look like and how that would shape my life. It was/is a hard lesson to let go of this idea but definitely a useful and important one. In order to have a more realistic vision or goals in general and therefore be less disappointed and also empathetic towards myself. When you wrote "take care of yourself and your home life; eat well, be comfortable, be cozy, enjoy yourself" that also hit close to home because that's something I've been discussing/working on with my therapist the past few weeks. The X of Pentacles keeps popping up for me in the context of strength and I've been having a hard time making sense of it. It definitely isn't about financial stability, cuz that, unfortunately, isn't part of my life. So I'll be spending some more time exploring why it keeps showing up. The King of Swords as outside help or advisor totally reflects my therapist. She's always brutally honest and rationalizes me when I'm stuck in irrational thought spirals.
Your reading made me feel seen and understood. Thank you so much <3
Comment: Thank you for the reading, it's really inciteful. I would say you're spot on with what's been going on in my life and is going on especially with the influence of the two of swords. I really enjoyed this swap as I'm still very new to Tarot and it's very different trying to read for someone else than just for myself. Thank you for a great reading. Stay safe.
Comment: Wow, you really went above and beyond on this one! What a delight to receive - gorgeous midnight dragon candle, lovely Bastet charm, INTRIGUING fox charm, bear fetish, awesome tarot deck and even some cool moon postcards - thank you! Promise of abundance fulfilled.
