Favorite Book Exchange Lists are Sent!
« on: August 12, 2015, 12:50:57 AM »
Hello Flourish Friends!
The lists have been sent out for the Favorite Book Exchange. There were 70 members signed up and for the first time ever, the number of international members outnumbered the US members! Woohoo!  :)

Deadline: 8/28/15

Please contact me ASAP if you think you signed up but did not receive an email or if you see a mistake in your address. Thanks!

Have fun! I can't wait to see all the wonderful books represented!  ;D

I'm so impressed you are done so early! Now, should I save it until I get all of them, or open one at a time? It will probably be too tempting to wait.  :)  I have a list of ideas, just need to choose one and begin!

Hi Sharon! Just so happens I had a book in mind wayyyy back when this exchange topic was announced, so it was just a matter of picking a quote and putting it down. I'm very new with calligraphy so that could by why I'm so quick too... no crazy flourishing and stuff :P  haha Hope you like it nonetheless!!

I got mine at the end of last week! I'm saving it to open them all together, though. The envelope is beautiful - my husband was so impressed when he got the mail! Still working on mine-can't wait to finish them up and get them in the mail before Saturday.

List 6 friends – I sent my cards Saturday morning  – and had a lovely time at the post office sending my first international envelopes since grade school.  :) Hoping they make it to their respective destinations safely.

List 7 friends! Your letters are on the mail!! Hope you get them soon!

The woman at the post office complimented the envelopes (and she usually is not very nice to people), she even handed me the stamps because she did not want to ruin the letters because of a not-perfectly-straight stamp! It made my day! But don't get too excited, I suppose her reaction is because she is not used to see calligraphied envelopes, but they are not that good!
