Postage stamp ATCs - CHILDREN Due: January 20

[mrubyjean]

My cards are done!

[Donnacr]

everyone has such gorgeous stamps that they are using - I better get on and make mine so that I can be in the swap.

for those who have mailed - I will tell you when they arrive

[mrubyjean]

Mine were mailed today.

[Betsyg]

Mine will go out tomorrow--after the glue dries. I posted them to my gallery.

[Donnacr]

I will tell you both when they arrive

[Donnacr]

So sorry for going MIA. I hadn't realised just how drained I was from the chemo and then the new medication I am on sent me bouncing off the walls, with no sleep.
luckycat479's cards arrived on Jan 11 and mrubyjean's cards arrived on Jan 12. I have given them iTrader already.

AngelJoy - your cards arrived on Monday and Betsyg and CynthiaSillitoe - your cards arrived yesterday. I am off to give iTrader to all of you now.

luckycat479 - ALSO in yesterday's mail were your Christmas stamps. The envelope is pristine, showing that it reached Sydney on Jan 6 - so, even once they reached Australia, they were on a go-slow.
I will whip up a set of cards to swap with you and have them in the mail shortly.

[Donnacr]

seascape131 - your cards were in today's mail so we are only waiting on 1 more set and I can swap out.

[Cleopatra]

I haven't been on the site lately and see from your list that you did not receive my cards? I mailed them Dec. 15th. So sad if they didn't make it

[Donnacr]

Cleopatra - your cards arrived late on Monday!! No sign on the envelope of where they have been hiding but they didn't reach Sydney (our International mail centre) until Jan 24.

I swapped the returns and then discovered that I didn't have enough stamps to mail them all. Tuesday we had a mini cyclone come through so I was not going anywhere in that and today I have bought some more stamps.

All returns are now in the mail. Sad to see this long running series end but I will be back with more soon.

[Cleopatra]

Yay! I’m glad they made it! I wonder where they traveled to before they got to you? Sorry to see the series end as I didn’t get in at the beginning.

[jo.on.the.go]

It has been such a fun series in spite of the obstacles that the various post offices threw in our way.

[plumhill2001]

Got my Children today! Was I the first? Wow!
Love them all!
Thanks to AngelJoy (blue boat), Cleopatra (Polska stamp with red headed girl and birds) and Seascape131 (Charlie Brown and Linus)!
Thanks, Donnacr, for being a stellar host! Hope we'll do more in the future.
I'll be sure to let you know if my Art cards ever show up.

[Donnacr]

You certainly are the first - so glad that returns are arriving. I look forward to many more in the near future.

[Cleopatra]
