I loved participating in Kat's postcard swap.
What I learned:
I learned that, sadly the mailbox usually annoys me!
But the swap made mail fun again!
I really looked forward to going to the mailbox and seeing
what little suprise was waiting that day.
What I sent out:
Some say life is a dream.
If that is true then I want to live in a happy peaceful dream.
And that is what I want to send out to the world.
So I sent out this fairy angel,
she is peacefully dreaming in a field of flowers,
the way a content baby would sleep.
What I received:
Beautiful, gorgeous, loveliness!
Woops! I thought she was a mermaid. But she makes a beautiful fairy angel, too. Your work is wonderful! Thanks for sharing the postcards you received, too. I'm looking forward to swapping again next year.

Great collection! I'm with you... mail is usually pretty boring - until Kat made it kinda special.

I loved the dreaminess and color of your piece. It really caught my eye out of the many I saw! I'm so happy you joined the swap and shared your experience of the hop. Mail was fun again, if only for a little while!

I love what you sent! It has an Ophelia quality but also very dreamlike. And you got some lovely returns.
Thanks for sharing,

Hello Julie
Does your name translate to Angel Heart I wonder? It would be appropriate.
Just bloghopping the Liberate Your Art swap.
Nice to meet you! I am particularly drawn to your watercolours, which may not be surprising since you feel so attuned to the 'watery realm'.
Hope to meet you in next year's swap.

So happy to see you received a postcard from me. My wee, (then, she is 18 tomorrow!) niece made me the bird house. It made me so happy when I received it and I sometimes will look at it...and dream of fairies, goodness, peace and fun. Love your post.
