For the Love of Writing

03/20/2011 by Sandra 1 Comment

I wrote my brother this week, my mom was next but I shuffled the names around because my brother need his FAB more than my mommy right at this moment. My mom will understand as we speak on the phone almost daily :-).

I do hope my card cheers my little brother up, well not little anymore I think he is in his mid 30’s. Yet always a little brother to me hehe. The card on the left is my brothers card.

The card on the right is the one I sent to a new partner on swapbot her name is thisismeAXiD. I also put two recipes that I enjoy cooking for my family in the envie. Both are recipes that my family has made for as long as I can remember.

I am looking forward to what writing I will do in the coming week. I am wanting to make few handmade note cards to add to my choices of cards I send out.

A Swapping I Go As I Continue This New Project

03/18/2011 by Sandra 4 Comments

For me swapping is a new project and I am learning more and more each day about the process and how it works.

Here is a fun package I have been preparing for a partner in Australia. I am will be taking it to the post office soon and I do hope I prepare all the paperwork correctly to send it. I have never sent a package abroad so we will see how it goes.

Here is the pic of the items, they still need to be packaged and I will add pics of how I package them.

I would like for the little boy who opens the package to open a few small packages within the big package. I still have to figure out how I am going to do this. 🙂

This is a nice sandwich my husband makes us for breakfast. It is awesome and it contains sausage, eggs, cream cheese, shredded cheese. He make the egg in the microwave using the bottom of a ceramic bowl and they come out perfectly round and cute.

Here are several pics.

We have these mostly on weekends as a special treat. Also you can dip in a bit of maple syrup too.

Went to the post box and what did I find? This is what was in my box!

I was tickled by those little spreaders and so were my kids. My husband made first dibs on the hazelnut chocolate square and I got the mint one. Yum mint is my favorite.

This is what I sent via the post office:

Cute vintage business cards and address labels, simple but I think they are pretty. The labels were adorable too puppy dogs and cut flowers with lady bugs. I like them so much bought a set of the stickers for my use as well.
