I just happened to find this one!!! I would like a spot in each category please. I love the devotionals, all 3 sizes, and of course always the cards, and the pocket bags last time turned out so cute!
Thanks for hosting these!

I'm not sure I understand what is wanted here. I understand the altered notepad or post it note pad and the small gift, but what do you mean by 3x3 gift card with envelope? And is this a 1 only for each spot?

Oh drat! I posted hastily... and forgot some stuff. I'll be right back after I fix my post.
I gave one of the pocket bags to a friend on Friday as a thank you, and she called and left me the sweetest message, she just loved it!
Those are so awesome! Thanks for hosting it again, Marilyn!
Welcome, Please tell me a little about yourself. Have you been swapping a while? Me, well I came to SCS about four years ago. I hostessed my first round of Praise swaps after Susan offered the opportunity to me.
I found a little bag of all these unmounted stamps I'd ordered a while back and forgot all about! haha... there are mostly scripture ones so I'm excited to use some of those for this swap this round!
