I am sorry for the delay of posting this thank you. Kobe, Coronavirus, Crazy Elections, etc. You guys are so wonderful. Just when I think I'm done and hit burn out, a happy boost of love finds its way to my mailbox and the reset button has been activated. Thanks for keeping me going you guys!

u/potheadbarista Your sweet Secret Garden postcard is so lovely! It didn't occur to me until I got this that Johanna Bashford also has a book called The Secret Garden. I just love her! I have a couple of her books and I love to watch her videos. I have been carrying around in my work bag the exchange that I promised you. I'm making this weekend a RAOC priority.

u/Gigi700Gigi Hello botanical buddy! I'm loving this Thistle postcard. Ever since my last trip to the UK, I've been dreaming of returning. Scottish thistles, Hairy Coos, cashmere plaids, fish and chips. Scottish yearnings. My garden is in need of water. We started out with a promising season of rain, but it now looks like we are headed back in to a drought. Some of the hundreds of bulbs I planted last year have come up and some are already blooming. I acquired 8 more rose bushes and yesterday I was gifted the elusive Yves Piaget rose. I've still got to order my tomato seeds, but I'm sure it will be ok.

u/Mikepenpal6 You, my friend are really pushing the envelope (Hahaha! Punny joke!) with your creative card designs! This heart spinner Valentine card is da bomb! Loving it! The sloth card is too cute! I feel like I'm back in elementary school. "Will you be my Valentine?" I know just what I'm going to do with the tiger and peacock. As soon as things calm down here a bit, I'm going to experiment with Artist Trading Card/Junk Journal making. I'm looking for old photos too!

u/ninajyang Life is butter with you too! Cute. Cute. Cute. Happy Valentine's day to you too my friend. I kinda got stuck on my Chinese New Year cards waiting for a Rat stamp. I ordered it waaaay in advanced and didn't know it was a custom hand carved thing from Vietnam. Don't be surprised when your CNY card comes really late. I'm still working on them. Thanks also for the cute pages of stickers. Since u/Mikepenpal6 has totally upped the washi/sticker game, I've got to work on my creativity skills. I'm still trying to work out an April bay area visit. I will let you know!
