Suzy800 (Yvonne) . . . our cards must have hugged in the mail! I just rec'd your (not one but 2) cards in the mail yesterday. And yes, purple is my favourite colour. I 'love' the love card! I'm guessing you have a Cricut ?? The DPs you used are beautiful. The red card you sent is also wonderful. Not sure if you wrote 'friends' or if that is a stamp but I really like it! Thanks so much. I didn't think I could do justice to thank you's for you and Nikki1578 as it was a rough day yesterday! The happy mail made it much better (and almost made me cry . . . in a good way)
You are most welcome Charlene! and yes, I do have a cricut and yes I wrote the word friends on the card. So glad they brightened your rough day!
I just received the most adorable card in the mail today from butterfingers!! It was the perfect card to receive on a day like today......we have a strong very cool wind today that is apparantely bringing in snow flurries over the next couple of days......ENOUGH SNOW ALREADY!!!!!! lol.
I love the little hedgehog peaking out of the watering can.......you did an awesome job of coloring him in and I love the background DP. The color combination is perfect. Thanks so much for the sunshine filled spring card!!!
I've started to love to go pick up the mail!!! I received the cutest "spring" card from Louise this morning with the MOST ADORABLE little sprining duck on the front!! Love the bright yellow, green and pink papers.....the lay out is sooooo much fun. And what an awesome surprise when I opened the card up!! She included some wonderful little printed sentiments for me to use on my cards and the CUTEST little image & sentiment stamp set......thanks SOOOOO much Louise! You are a sweetheart!
I'm going to be away for the next week visiting the beautiful state of AZ to get away from the yucky white stuff here that just won't go away! I'm going to miss sneaking in to get the odd card sent to me......have fun ladies and I'll see you all in about a week.
Received the most ADORABLE little ducki card from Charlene (crystaldolphins) today. I loved the way you matched the shading on the duckie "round" to the shading on the background. So beautifully done. Thank You!!!

BUTTERFINGERSI received a beautiful House Mouse card today from Donna, what a cute card! I love it!! The little mouse is smelling a lilac, one of my favorite spring flowers! THANK YOU!!! :grin:
Received TWO wonderful RAC/SAC cards this weekend.
Lorraine (smhtwin) your card was beautiful! I especially loved that little extra flower inside the card. I�m so neglectful when it comes to embellishing the inside of a card. It does make it extra special though and your adorable little flower reminded me that I have to pay more attention to that.
Charlene (crystaldolphins) � That beautiful embellishment on the front of the card really made your card special. Loved that soft lavender with the dark purple as well. Thank you.
Both you � I�ve had a particularly tough couple of weeks at work and your cards really made my weekend brighter. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with me.

Almost forgot to post a BIG thank you to Yvonne Gebauer (suzy800). Received two of the most beautiful cards ever from her. I especially loved the one with the green "lace" leaves adn all the little flowers, bugs, and butterflies. SOOoooo cute. And the lavender one was just beautiful as well. You were very generous and I will put both cards to very good use. Thank you.

Lisa - I got the cute doggie card! My sister snapped it right up when she was at my house for Easter dinner. The card will soon go to a pet therapy volunteer :p
Louise - glad you like the sunflower card:p

I just picked up the mail and received a wonderful card from Louise! I absolutely LOVE everything about this fun card. The stamped image reminds me of myself and the look I can fire off if need be...lol. The coloring and shading around the edges all match perfectly! And of course, the sentiment --- it matches the image to a 'T'. I love the bg paper with some of my favorite colors and of course.....hearts! Thank you so much!
Louise, I rec'd your grumpy coffee lady card today . . . I LOVE it!!!!!! "Touch my coffee and see what happens!" is the perfect sentiment as I'm very protective of my flavoured coffee! The purple is gorgeous (my fav colour) - you coloured her beautifully - love the silver highlights in her hair (I pay to have those removed!) and I really like her green socks and purple slippers! Thank you too for the Studio G present! Having a rough time at work lately and this card was just perfect - thank you so much!!! (computer down at home too so am going through some evening SCS withdrawals!)
Received TWO gorgeous cards from Joan Ballanger. Joan I can't begin to tell you how much I love that "Honey" card. What stamp is that? I don't think I've ever seen it before. The colors on that card are so nice and bright too. And the quilted card. Do you use a machine for that or do you have one of those hand-sewing-machines? LOVED it. Thank you so much. You made my day with these two.

Joan: I received your lovely card on Friday. Thank you so much. I went back to work this week after a bit of time off and coming home to a homemade card certainly made my day brighter!
Wow.... this was a great weekend for me. Got a ton of cards (RAC/SAC) and WISH Raks. Could hardly contain my joy when I got so many things that were not bills. LOL
Joan (smileyj)
Received the cards - which were SO cute. Especially loved that flower one! And thank you, thank you, thank you for those "quilted" piece for me to use in my own card making. LOVED them. You are a very creative woman.
Lynne (angie1974)
In your letter you said that you were "new at card making" -- but I never would have known that from the beautiful and very creative card you sent! Really... it was beautiful! The silver pearls and the "pop" of shine on the teal ink were perfect. Thank you ever so much for that card. Keep creating!
Laura (LBCreations)
Thank you for that adorable birthday card!. I NEVER think to emboss over patterned paper - and yet this card obviously shows that doing this is just perfect for some cards. One of my nephews has a six year old who will love this card. Thanks for sharing your tallent with me through this card.
Have a great week everyone!

Just received the most beautiful card from shonni! I love the stamp from the Gina K design....gotta see if I can find that one. And I've always loved the black & white cards. So well done and I love it!
My lucky day! I received a cute critter card from Butterfingers. You really have a flair for choosing the perfect DS and colors. As an extra bonus, I found more critter images to color and make my own creations. I love the critters. So far I only own a Christmas critter stamp.
I was driving home for lunch today thinking "please let there be happy mail today" and voila! Donna, thank you so much for the 2 cards you sent! I absolutely love the house mouse critters and in purple no-less! I also love the birdhouse "Celebrate Spring" card with the bird in the window! Am having a very challenging day today (too many of those) and your cards really brightened my day! Thank you so much - I love them both! The dps you used are great!
I received a lovely card from Darlene today! Thank you so much for the card and the little stamp set you included. I love the design paper you used on the card. I would have never thought of putting 2 different polka dot papers together but they look wonderful.
Nikki
Received the card you sent with the running horses. You really did a nice job on this card. LOVED the nave die cut. I'm not sure I've ever seen that one. Those little "extra's" like the ribbon and small metal flower really add to a card. Thanks so much sending the card.

Lela, thank you so much for the gorgeous card I received today! I meet with a group of women on Thursdays to make cards and I had just received the mail so I showed it to all of them and they loved it too! Thank you again!
Two pieces of Happy Snail Mail awaited me this morning. I forgot to get the mail yesterday!
Reagan- love the princess image. My DGD loves the Disney princesses. I will be sending it to her soon! Of course, purple is my fav.
Jean- the card is so spring like. The blue birds are so lovey dovey. My DS needs a card for a wedding. He will be sending it to his friends. Yes, I do need a bookmark. I have not tried to make one myself.
I love getting this happy mail!! I just received my card from smileyj.....and some sunshine she did include! I received two beautiful cards.....a beautiful yellow one with the most amazing hand made flower on the front of it and a gorgeous green card that was 'quilted' on the front. The quilting is incredible and I can't believe you cut all those 1/2" sqaures out and zig zagged them together. Wow!! Thanks so much......LOVE them both!
