I had an emerald ring (in 2010, we had a house fire so no more anything that was in that house other than iron skillets and a few weird things that survived!)... Most of the butterflies we have here are Viceroys...we get them by the hundreds ...and not many others. My granddaughter raises dairy goats so we can't have milkweed here to attract the Monarchs... it's one of the few things that is poison to goats that would be interesting to have...BUT... Thanks for the swap and the interesting letter!!

Comment: Jill, you always send such fun swaps. Your story was fun to read.....as always. Love the hydrangea card. I've had several hydrangeas in my life, but never a fully blue one, though I do see them here in Arkansas. We are full-blown spring now, tho' last night I had to cover all the lettuce for a frost. Everything survived, thankfully.BTW, I like using maps for envies too. Blessings to you and yours.

Comment: Hi Jill, and thank you for another fun (and informative!) swap. It's funny . . whenever I think of roses, I always think pink or red, but yellow roses are so beautiful, too. I love, love, love the Buddha pocket you created. Sometimes, an image just calls out to me, too. Thanks for the notes on amber--I do own a Baltic amber beaded necklace! Always a pleasure, my friend.

Comment: What a fun way to present the lovely selection of papers by creating a sewn pocket in a national park theme. I enjoyed reading about the U.S. Virgin Islands, and your letter in general. I’m with you on collecting stickers & markers as a young girl and still liking them today. I’d have to add rocks, sea glass, and minerals to that collection category. Thank you for the sunshine ☀️ today. P.S. Someone at a mixed media art store told me about swapbot because they knew I liked to swap handmade cards and also paper crafting supplies. I joined and am still here after 15 years!

Comment: Thank you for the nice pockets and letter. I joined swap-bot back in 2013 after the old Cricut site closed down where I was swapping. Someone there introduced me to ATC's and I came here to swap them. I can't really remember what I was obsessed with at 12, it would have been 1991. Wish I could, that's an interesting thought indeed. Happy swapping! :)

Comment: What a wonderful way to celebrate, as you explained in your letter about the Candlelight dinner and the start, stop and continue. My husband thinks it great and we just may do that for our New years Eve celebration. Thank you for they items you put together. Enjoyed seeing you "sewed" the pocket for it all.

That's also when I found Postcrossing, which is another fun way to connect with people. Thanks for all the extras you sent too. I like the little pocket you put them in.

I love hand made "pockets" and the ones you made are super cool! I need to drag out my sewing machine. It adds such a nice touch. I adore tiny things, so the butterfly card is a hit with me too.

Most of all your letters are so inspiring!! I love reading all of the information you send!! I loved your little bit of trivia about whatever you were obsessed with at 12 becomes a core part of who you are now. I was always obsessed with art. I used to gather the neighborhood kids and give them art lessons in my backyard. I would make things up even if it was coloring rocks. I became a PreK teacher & can teach any type of craft. So yes there probably is some truth to that thought!! Thanks for the memory!! And again thanks for being a great swap partner!!

I have been to Berlin a number of times and crossed through Checkpoint Charlie into East Berlin. remember the No Man's land where the former embassies were located. They belonged to many countries and were in bad shape . Food when I had a meal was mostly not available. Coffie with milk and sugar cost more than plain coffee. Interesting , however. I had to tell them when I entered how long at most I would stay. If I didn't return, they would come to look for me.

Comment: Stay safe with all your snow melt! Your lovely swap makes me proud to say that my daughter is an annual volunteer for sea turtles coming up onto beach to lay their eggs. The headlights can confuse the turtles so they go to the road instead of the sand. When the baby turtles are born, again, the lights must be turned off, so the turtles are not confused, and the volunteers make a safety wing around them to keep predators away so there’s many turtles as possible can make it to the ocean. It’s a very quiet crowd that helps these little guys get their start. I will definitely share the information and the lovely card with my daughter. Thank you again .

Comment: Such a nice swap. How it came all put together wrapped up like a present. Always enjoy a nice letter, so thank you. I, also live in a very cold winter environment. Hubby, for Christmas, got me a car starter so NO MORE cold car! Well worth the money he spent. You should look into it. And in the summer, start with the A/C on. Will be heavenly. Thanks for the suggestion of "The kitchen front". Does sound interesting. Hope you enjoy your day. Take Care--From Cook Forest State Park, Clarington, PA

Comment: Your damaged, blackened envelope arrived today in one of those P O “we care” envies, looking like it had been run over a few dozen times. Contents were perfectly fine and the envelope remained intact. Love the sewn pockets, all the goodies, the tiny butterfly card and envelope, but especially the info on wreaths. Who knew? Many thanks. I really loved everything you sent.
Response: Oh wow! It went over the river and through the woods to get to your house. I'm so glad it made it! I guess late is better than never. Thanks for the heart!!!

I was looking for a place to do swaps and found this magnificent place :) When I was 12 I like stationary and pens...still my obsession, so maybe there is something to that lol.

I absolutely loved reading your fascinating letter about volunteering at the butterfly biosphere- OMG!!!! Dream job!! Do people do any art creations with the dead butterfly wings they are so pretty! How funny to know one other use for hot glue-LOL! My sister lives in SLC and when I come to visit her I am definitely going to check out the butterfly biosphere! Thank you so much for a truly awesome swap- I really loved all the papers and stickers and fun things!!! Wish I could give you 100 hearts!!
Response: Im so happy. When you come let me know (if you are comfortable) and I can get you and 3 others in for free. Also, you can pay an extra $5 and let a butterfly loose for the first time. They hatch the butterflies there and will let you release them into the biosphere.

Comment: Thank you for such a beautifully thought out swap! I AM SO excited to plant these milkweed seeds in our back garden to attract and nourish the monarchs that flitter through!! I was 12 in 1982 and what I was really into was horses, dogs and penpals! So there is a lot of truth to that! I am still into Horses, dogs and Swap-bot, postcrossing and penpalling! :) I ran across swap-bot on when I did a search online for "craft swaps" . I had been in a few facebook and yahoo groups for scrapbooking and swaps and when those dwindled down, I went looking for a place to nurture my hobby and found swap-bot! I have been here ever since! I LOVE that you volunteer as a trail guide at Timpanogos Cave Natl. Monument and that your daughter is a park ranger at Mt Zion!!! My oldest is in College right now (sophmore) and is studying Oceanography and Marine Biology! She hopes to study horseshoe crabs in the future. She would be an excellent park ranger as she loves nature, solitude and the beauty and quiet of the out doors! ( Oh know it can be loud with tourists though! LOL) I hope you have a great weekend!! I am inspired to go visit Princeton Battlefield State Park (Its 4 miles from me!) to walk the trails and see if any trees have started budding yet!! Happy WEEKEND!! x Gabi

Thank you so much for included them:) I don't really have any Autumn traditions besides carving pumpkins, but I suppose that does count, LOL! I also really liked the quote you put in the letter about "whatever you were obsessed with when you were 12 becomes a core part of who you are now". That really got me thinking about the things I enjoyed when I was that age and how it incorporates into my life now! I also ADORE the zine that you created! It is really so perfect in every single way! I truly wish that I could give you more hearts for this swap, because that is how much I love everything! I love the added pockets as well, everything is so nicely put together. I am so grateful and appreciative for you!! :) This truly means so much to me, I will cherish it all forever!

Comment: Hi Jill, I received your swap, "Happy Mail #5,"on Friday. Thank You for the very nice packet you put together for me and this swap. One of my favorite things you sent me, was the card you made featuring the White Ash Tree. I hope you don't mind me using your idea when it seems appropriate. As well, I like how you shared some facts about the White Ash. I always love to learn. I enjoyed reading your note, as well. The matchbook I can write on the inside. I'm going to use it for list keeping for shopping, mainly grocery shopping. The other pieces of scrapbook paper is beautiful. I like that all the paper has various weights and I will enjoy using in many swaps that follow. I hope we have further times that we will get to swap with one another. Until that next time arrives, Happy Swapping!! Barbara B., sleepingrover2010
Response: Oh, I'm so happy you enjoyed it. I try to make each swap personal. And please use my ideas and expand on them. Isn't that what this community is about? Learning and celebrating each other's skills and talents.

I found Swap-Bot through Postcrossing and it helped me get through college, haha. I’ll try planting the seeds as well.

I can tell you put a lot of heart into that and I very much appreciate it ❤️ Congratulations to your son for graduating high school, that is a big accomplishment! I am a high school teacher and I got to see some of my seniors walk to stage, it was so nice that these students got a somewhat normal graduation. When I was young I collected a lot of collectionable quarters haha and that is still a big hobbie of mine to this day, so your theory may be true :) It is so nice to hear your origin story of how you became part of Swapbot. I feel like many of us here came for some of the same reasons, to be creative and spread some happiness. Thank you again for all the wonderful things, I really enjoyed reading your letter. ❤️❤️❤️

Comment: Thank you so much for the washi. I LOOOOVED the way you packaged it! So cute! I really enjoyed the letter you sent. I'm not very good at keeping up with letter writing (I struggle with returning texts in any kind of timely manner), so I'll keep my replies here: I do prefer to wait until a series is out before I start it, because I'm also very impatient. :) At 12, I was collecting My Little Ponies. It was the 80's (I turned 12 in '88) so I'm talking the original line. I guess it is true, because I have over 100 in my collection today (that's small compared to serious, full-time collectors). I found swap-bot via reddit. I was looking to get into sewing (or some kind of new hooby) and was perusing reddit & someone mentioned it. I checked it out, looked over some of the papercrafting swaps and switched my hobby decision to crafting with paper. I'm super glad I did, I think I would have not been so successful with sewing. lol Thank you again for a great swap! :)

Comment: Wow, what a swap! There is so much to respond to, if I had time I'd start up a response letter, but maternity leave is any day now & getting work ready to leave has been pure chaos :( Audio books! Great narration I recommend: Fiction- City of Thieves, Non-Fiction-Stranger in the Woods. Also, it is the same, you're still devouring a book! I don't collect things, as much as my house is themed in Peter Pan Foster Kid room, Alice in Wonderland Living Room, Wild Things Backyard, and Hobbit Nursery- so yes what I read/was obsessed with at 12 has stayed with me in all I decorate with and live among. I used to work on a butterfly farm for eco-anthropology, but I'm not a butterfly lover-but they do need saving, I may pass the seeds on though because I can't keep plants alive, I feel bad when people give me them because I know their fate is I try hard but never succeed. Again great letter!

Pretty awesome about your volunteering as a tour guide. And tell your daughter that my 3rd g-grandma named Springdale. She and her husband founded the town!

Comment: Hi Jill, Thanks so much for taking the time to write me a long, newsy letter. I enjoyed reading it and learning about your life. I still have to write to the person that I was assigned to, and send it off by Friday. I never finish anything early, I'm always rushing to meet deadlines. It was worse of course when I was working. I retired from teaching about 6 yrs ago now. So I don't have too many deadlines these days....but if I did, I would put it off in some way😊....one of my many bad habits. Once I get my letter off to my assigned person, I'm planning on writing back to you. I think it would be great fun to be your pen pal. I used to have a "crafty" pen pal. We would write once a month and send little crafty things, but when Covid hit we lost contact. I'm really enjoying the neat goodies that you sent, lots of birdies and butterflies, those address labels are precious. I collect postage stamps, so I loved getting one with a butterfly. Thanks again and I'll talk to you soon😊
Response: Sounds wonderful!

My one short trip was Memorial Day weekend, and we got snowed in there when a storm closed the roads. Fortunately, there was room at the wonderful Old Faithful Inn, and we got to see the geothermal pools surrounded by snow the next day. Magical visit! (except for the fact that we only had summer clothes and shoes, haha)

I don't know if he was male or female, but we called him Big Pete. He was only about 10 inches and a little fatter than a pencil.

Comment: Thank you so very much for the awesome Sounders pack. Love the colors and that you were thinking of me! I've been ordering stamps online for a long time now. Our post office is tiny and has long lines, impossible to socially distance. I love being able to pick the stamps I want and order new ones before they are released. And yes, it is well worth the $1.30 shipping. Take care and thanks again for making me feel special!

Too early for all this cold and snow. I think that is great that you had got to go,for a hike with your daughter. And then off to Alabama. Alot of stuff was cancelled this summer due to covid. I feel bad for the younger kiddos caught up in the mess of 2020. Thank you for the Rocky Mountains national park facts. I love all the extra goodies. Thank you so much.

Of my first three swaps ever, two of my envelopes were from you. :-) The envelope was torn open about 2/3 of the way on the bottom, but I'm pretty sure none of the contents spilled out.That cute paper band you put around everything saved the day! I don't know that you can be on a National Parks "kick," as I'm pretty sure once you have the addiction it never goes away. At least it hasn't for me! Brandon Sanderson! Yes! I read and loved his Skyward Series! I haven't read anything else from him yet, and am inspired to check out the series you mentioned. Have a great day. :-) Dylan

Big Basin is now on my list of parks to visit soon, as I LOVE a good view of the stars. I visited Mt. Rainier National Park last year and the views of the stars there are amazing as well. I am so glad out paths crossed. Have an amazing day.

For starters, I loved hearing about how things are going in your neck of the woods, home and family info as well as general virus related things and where your area is at with things like school, etc. I also have to say one of my favorite things was theme of the national parks and I just loved all of your facts about the parks and the wildlife inside them. I will be passing the info on the pandas and Yosemite on to my postcrossing friends, why not spread the word, right? And the extra goodies, you really did spoil me. Thank you so very much, this was just so fun to get today. I really do love the entire package. You are so kind.

Comment: Jillemina, Thanks for all the goodies. I appreciate all the thought you put into the swap. I hate wildfires, I get up in Southern California and they happen every year, the 2001 one was the worst. I now live in Washington state and they are worse here and people just walk around with ash sprinkling like its nothing. And yes, people are the worst! LOL Aww I hope you get to see your grand-baby soon. I am also thankful for facetime so I can see my niece. Cedar Breaks National Monument looks AMAZING! I will add to must go to list. Yay for the pandas! They are though to breed in captivity and the females are only ovulate one time per year so it's really hard for them to reproduce. Your swap certainly brought a smile to my face. Thank you again, Ana

Comment: 💚💚💚 Giving you extra hearts (grass green) for the amazing happy mail you sent. The little heart surprise was so lovely that I did not want to open it. I collect sea glass and it just made my day when it popped out of there. Thanks for everything!

Comment: Thank you kindly for your note, extras AND the beautiful colored friendship bracelet. You could not have chosen a more perfect color theme for me! That is the fist time I’ve seen a colored schemed bracelet and card like that. Very clever indeed. My heart thanx❤️ p.s. loved the quote you wrote on the backside of the envie.

Comment: Thank you for the lovely swap! My favorite item was actually your letter/note; I enjoyed reading it and am glad to hear that your brother enjoyed his time in Pittsburgh. Best wishes to you and your family (and your future grandchild!). Take care.

Comment: I love the bandages you sent! And the bracelet and its spectacular presentation (inside a sewn paper heart, with a tag saying "pull me" on it) was amazing. Thank you so much for making my week, mail-wise! <3

Comment: Thanks for the great notecard, letter, and map themed decorative thingy (the correct name escapes me). Banner or bunting? Losing weight is on my to do list, too. Ugh! But I need to be in better shape for hiking/backpacking!!!
