Untie the Ribbons


This beautiful card came by Royal Mail (Joss) to me in Alaska. It's a stamped image and the ribbon matches so perfectly. It barely made it though, as the back and front detached as I removed it from my mailbox. If it had done that just one stop sooner, there would have been no address. I'm glad it decided to hold on long enough to get to me. She writes on the back, "I like the concept, Untie the Ribbons, you never know what you will find!" I agree. I'm always up for a surprise. Life is good! Thank you Joss!

  1. I agree, pretty card!
    Hmmm, I think the dampness is getting to some of her cards. I hope the rest of them make it!

  2. It's exciting to see how these arrive. That's half the fun! It's fun taking chances. And this time luck won out! I do love my sewing machine that fixes fronts to backs just fine! I'm wondering when mine will reach you Caroline. Soon I hope, seems it's been in the mail a while. But there is nothing to come loose.
    Joss' card is devine!

  6. Yes, indeed thank goodness it held out! It's great too! Still keeping my fingers crossed that mine will reach their destinations and that yours reach me! It was really sad to receive a white card in the mail - though it was nice to read the greeting from Joss!
