Oh my time is flying and here comes a update from me.

Time just flies and I´m busy with work and family, although this weekend we´ll be visiting my dear friend Stina and her family in a town called Eskilstuna, me and Stina have been friends since we were 15 years old, and we´ve been there for each other trough our first meetings with boyfriends, our weddingday and trough our kids birth. So metting her is a special thing for me, she is also my one and only friend that gives me that special talk about God and being a christian that I so often need. She is my rock, that´s for sure :-)



Beautiful Stina!!!



Well back to some creations I made ;-)

On Swap-bot I did a butterfly challenge, and this is the ATC I did.







And this is what I got back





Do you remeber the first ATC I made and uploaded here a while back? Well 2 of them I sent on a ATC swap on swap-bot and today I got two back, loved them both.



The first one shows the women who made women be able to vote in USA, and if I´m wrong, please do comment and update me :-)



I also was in a letter and surprise swap on Swap-bot, you should write two new intro letters and send a surprise in it, well these are the two I got, from Finland



and one from Sweden, she also leaves in the USA :-), the bike card is one of her ATC´s :-)




While talking about letters this is something I need to show off. Lovely handmade bookmark from my dear pal in SriLanka, that´s what I love, handmade stuff made out of friendship and love, thanx dear, I will treasure it as long as I live.



A surprise, surprise swap on swap-bot which I sent, and yesterday I got one for me as well :-) From the Netherlands :-)







And here goes a few pictures of my lovely pets, have a nice weekend, I sure will :-)

"Piggy" and "Tingeling"


"Chip" and "Dale"

New stuff for me to show

Hi again my dear followers. Well facebook isnt only good to keep up the socialconnection with friends, but also a big part for my swapping and penpalling. The first group I always check is the penpalling and letter group were not only my dear friends are discussing different topics around penpalling, we also swap and share different things between each other. My first swap trough the group was a postcard from Irené in Italy. Well everyone enjoyed the swap so much so we decided to do a secpnd swap, this time a card came from Wien and Babsy.
These swaps were sooo famous that we started up a couple of more swaps and next was a stickerswap I joined, These lovely Hello Kitty stickers comes to from Italy and Marta, who went on a special hunt just to find Hello Kitty for me :-) I took away all the ones that showed Hello Kitty or with the text of Hello Kitty to mine and Wilonas special Hello Kitty collection, the rest me and Wilona shared and she choose so carefully haha.




This cards are a swap from a guy in Italy, I love the Mother Mary card.






This is a label bag swap from Maria in Sweden, you might wonder what label bags are, well ít´s bags which you send among friends, adding 5 of your address labels, taking out one of each that´s already in the bag, making either new label bags for or a friendship book for. It might sound dull, but I just love it :-) It´s nice to see were the bags and friendshipsbooks have been and how far across the world they have travelled.

Here is also a labelswap from Göni in Romania. As you might see, I got quite a lot of work ahead of me, but I´ll take my time to make labelbags and Friendship books for the ppl whom I´ve got labels from. No need to rusch so everything gets sloppy ey?!




I might have told you before that I´m a member of swap-bot, were I find different swaps, this is a postcard from one of those swaps, this swap was called "One person from Each CITY (village) # 5" and came from a lady in the USA :-)









I also send out a coffee swap to Bea in Spain trough penpalling and letters on facebook, and also a labelbag swap which I ofc forgot to take photos of, I also forgot to take a picture of the letter and stickers I sent to Indonesia and my dear friend Fenny.



I´ll try to get better. This weekend I´m off from work which means I´ll get some letters done, 2 of them on computer for 2 guys, one in Norway Roy and the other one in the USA, Mitchell who is in prison after a hit and run. Hopefully I´ll also get a letter to Brazil done :-)



Wilona has 3 letters to get done as well, so loads of more pictures will be coming.....






.....stay tuned and I do hope you like my blog as much as I enjoy writing it :-)




I´m in for a give away which I hope to win ofc, watch it at http://laura-moonstone-shop.blogspot.com/2011/06/giveaway.html

Cards I recieved and letters going out.

Hello there, today no mail for me, except my portabal internet so now you can reach me at works as well and guess what....I´m on internet totally legal so not like before. We´re actually not allowed on internet trough our work computer, but if we got our own with us, that´s fine...Silly I know.

Well since I never got any post I´ll show you some of the postcard I´ve recieved lately and my letters which I´m sending.
First postcard id from my longest pal Marina in Germany, we started writing in the 90´s only teenagers, unfortunately we lost conntact, although as I started my penpalling hobby again in 2009 I sent her dad a postcard and she answered, we have ever since had conntact trough mail and sending smal gifts for B-days and X-mas, now she is a member on facebook as well.

Second postcard is from my dear friend Mia, which is a IRL friend and co-worker. The card is from up north of Sweden where she comes from.

Third card is a mystery card from a girl on facebook and one of the swap groups I´m in. The mystery with this card was that it was filled with lovely stuff like stickers and memosheets. After I got all the lovely stuff out of it, it works as a friendshipbook, not sure though I am willing to send it cause it´s so beautiful and what if it never finds it way back home to me?







Now to some letters I´ve sent out. First one, stickers, letter and High Quality Friendship books goes to Karen Lisa in England.


Second picture is a letter for Valentina in Germany with some Friendshipbooks as well.


Third letter goes out to a new pal in Swedden, so it´s one of my intro letters. Well yeah I know, I got well over my limit, but how on earth do you say no if you feel the cklick might be there?! Anyhow it´s my first computer written letter and I hated it, cause I just cant understand such a machine. Unfortunately my fibromyalgia is getting worse and I have to if I want to keep all my lovely pals.




Well stay tuned for more....oh btw just gotto show you....


A letter to me from my daughter, and if you cant see what it is....get glasses...cause is a airoplane ofc haha......my cutie is 3 years old and love to be creative.

Newest atrprojects

This is my newest project. Artist Trading cards which I make and sign on the back and swap on swap-bot. The one with the rinbbon on the side is for Melanie who I sent Marias journal to, the other two is for the same person on swap-bot.






Here are some pictures from the art journal swap. We´re 7 girls who all made one journal each (mine got lost) and we keep sending them to the same person. This is Marias journal and she´s from Germany and these are my decorations in her journal. Next this journal goes to Melanie.















My art Journal, which got lost, had to remake my book and now it´ s on it´s way to Michelle in Australia, since Melanie was gonna send it there if my first book had maked it. See






A card I sent to my pal Amy who has been working working way to much lately, just a message that I´ve been thinking about her, she likes owls.
