Yes there is a order look at the return addresses on the bags find the one that has your return address. That's who you are to send the book to next

Also for those of you that have received and sent it out again, Angie and BG. Has the postage that I placed on the envelopes been correct? Too much or too little? Just wondering because I was just going off of the USPS calculator. Thanks

Finished one page--surprisingly autobiographical. Deciding on whether to do a second page or not. It can't go to the post office until Monday, in either case.

The add & pass is on it's way to Prairie Kitten. The gal at the post office must have known that it was laden with awesomeness because she charged me $1.60 for additional postage. A "second opinion" on the postage would have been nice, but there's only one post office in my town.

Corazon I'm really surprise she charge another $1.60 seems more than I calculated. Sorry! Thanks for adding. I assumed a little by of postage may have to be added but not that much.

Samantha, it wasn't a problem. More like a curiosity.

Corazon who did you mail to? I thought prairie kitten was next but it's been a while I can't remember (:

Hi Samantha and everyone - Just after I received the book I got pretty sick with an infected kidney stone and had to go into the hospital. I came home on October 2, but I'm only just now feeling enough energy and focus to return to my normal activities. So I'll be adding to the book this week and mailing it back to you shortly. It's a fantastic book!

Sounds great Res. For the books I have sent out I usually use a predetermined list and provide postage for it but others have had them send randomly and they have worked perfectly. It's up to you.

Alright everyone they first book was a great success. I'm so excited the eager to do another one. I want to start putting a list together. I have a pretty large blank book. Who's in?

Feb 21, 2016
chris wells

Great video. By the way, my pages are in part an experiment using modeling clay to stamp acrylic paint. Although I seem to have been, relatively speaking, a minimalist, I had maximal fun with my pages.

Chris your pages are great the results of that method of stamping. The texture is pretty great. I might have to try that out myself. Borderline Grafix I will put you on the list.
