Left this for so long

[Nevermore]

I am almost embarrassed to post. I have been getting my ATCs but first I had the move, then I had to remember to bring home my binders, then I had to go get sleeves... but I think I finally have it all together. (It might take me an hour to finish this post, because I am going to put them away!!!)

And just to make you all crazy, in no order whatsoever except as my lights on them:

Judith, your haiku is so classically elegant! For a minute, I thought it was you and Freya on the stamp (yikes!). And I did get deked out by the japanes anime dragons on the back of the sleeve. All in all, one slick package!

Denise, how crazy to use Lorie's sparkly, but dang, it works!

Victoria, everyone does know just exactly that about wine gums! Perfect! And, like Judith, your haiku card is classic and elgant. I adore the sense of movement it has.

Bonnie, for whatever reason, I have a junk mail ATC from you in my "not put to bed and no thanks given pile". Cool cool seal and ribbon. And an August Happiness card (hey, hang on! I remember, you sent a bunch late. Thank goodness! I was starting to feel wretched about how long I left my thanks!) A lovely tension between the still lotus, the shimmering dragon fly and the exclamation mark. [Rooting through pile, finding all my Bonnies] The mask card is enigmatic for sure and the message so despondent...and huge hoot of laughter at your Stars and Garters woman! Whoo haw! What a great little pile.

A subtle black, white and red card from Pam, love the glass/plastic/acrylic square at the top.

I know I already thanked Ruth for Dr. Suess....

Always bad form to leave thanks so late but I had fun going back in the binder and "nesting" the unnested. Of course, once I open my dang binders, I have to sit and look...

Believe it or not my cards have been printed and ready for assembly for two weeks! But I will do them this weekend for sure and get them in the mail.

Thanks Kim, I loved this swap. I like to write Haiku, but for some reason my favourite is still my very first ever attempt at the art.

Noisy birds chatter -
Meaningless sounds assault the
cultured ear in vain

It was written during a very long, boring reception; my feet hurt, I was tired and there was nowhere to sit, just a crowd of chattering people who were invited to every reception and all said the same things over and over again. So I made an Haiku.

My brother did not even ask him from what country he came, nor what was his history. For in his history nike dunks (http://www.nikejordantoyou.com/) there is a fault, and my brother seemed to avoid everything which could remind him of it. To such a point did he carry it, that at one time, when my brother was speaking of the air jordan retro 11 (http://www.nikejordantoyou.com/) mountaineers of Pontarlier, who exercise a gentle labor near heaven, and who, he added, are happy because timberland boot sale (http://www.timberlandmenshoes.com/) are innocent. And there are several ways that it can be done, incidentally, and that black timberland boots (http://www.timberlandmenshoes.com/) is done legally in the United States Senate and in the Congress. The first way is to be a rich man. I don't happen to be a rich man, so I couldn't use that one. Another way that is used is to put timberland 6 inch premium boots (http://www.timberlandmenshoes.com/) your wife on the pay roll. Let me say, incidentally, that my opponent, my opposite number for the Vice Presidency on the usa mens soccer shoes (http://www.soccer4shoes.com/) Democratic ticket, does have his wife on the pay roll and has had it -- her on his pay roll for the ten years -- for the past roll top boots ten years.
