Texastam I sent you a pm, a few ideas.

CookieZenmilk 01-03-2018 05:15 PM

K-Roll and Sleepy Hollow - go for it, the more the merrier!

Texastam 01-03-2018 07:53 PM

Thanks Cuppy for all the ideas you pm’d me. You really helped me see it another way.

I cant wait to see what everyone has come up with.

CookieZenmilk 01-06-2018 06:41 AM

how is everyone doing?

Sleepy Hollow 01-06-2018 10:38 PM

First card (to j50) is completed! My off-swap card to K-roll is in planning stages. I know what song I want to do, but trying to figure out how to put that "on paper".

Mine hasn't shown up yet, but the roads have been a mess with ice, so it may be a little slow getting here.

I am too. You are not alone. But, I knew this one would be a challenge for me. But, I am up for it. I will figure it out.

travelinggramma 01-07-2018 01:58 PM

I wasn't going to join because I do not recall names of songs. But my GD was here and singing away for 10 days so found my song! Waiting for card to be received and posted.....

cuppy 01-08-2018 03:25 AM

Completed my fabric postcard. I do think my partner will guess as soon as she sees it. Try to get to post office tomorrow.

K-Roll 01-09-2018 12:56 PM

Well I certainly have changed my tune! My first thought of a tune turned into a problem very quickly --- idea might take too much time to work out. Plus I don't know that people are familiar with it anymore...so now I have another one going.
(I did a late posting for paris1889's december card, on last month's thread, so go check it out, too -- it's lovely. My computer cord is still MIA so created a bit of a hurdle to post.)

This is the card I sent to Texastam- she quessed it right away.

Sleepy Hollow 01-10-2018 08:33 PM

It took me a minute, but I remember it from Sunday School!

I received mine from CookieZenmilk! I guessed it right away (especially as it was a song I almost did for my card!)

K-Roll 01-10-2018 10:25 PM

Oh gee I found these hard to guess - still not too sure about the 1st one...the second one took me quite a while but whew! - got it now. I'm not going to post my guesses though - so everyone can have the fun of pondering!

I had the same issue at first. I chose two songs I remember being very popular, both from when I was a kid. I listen to a fairly large range, so hope I can guess!

I have everything "glued" to my second card, getting ready to hand stitch it together (headed out to the shack soon, and hand stitching is portable...) I'll have both of them mailed next week at the latest.

Texastam 01-11-2018 06:12 AM

TravelinGrandma-Thank you for posting the picture of the postcard you sent me. I was having trouble my file was too big and my computer is broken right now. Ugh.
I love it! Thank you again.

travelinggramma 01-11-2018 10:21 AM

cookiezenmilk - thank you , now I am humming another tune!! love it

Sleepy Hollow 01-11-2018 10:33 PM

I stayed up late after work to mail my cards. Hope you will be able to figure out the songs!

j50 01-12-2018 05:05 AM

sent my card out yesterday

cuppy 01-12-2018 07:55 AM

My guess is Rock around the clock!

cuppy 01-12-2018 07:58 AM

ok Candle in the wind is one of my guesses.

Armylady2012 01-12-2018 11:05 AM

I am finishing up my FPC but it is snowing like crazy today, I had to go to the store and I was all over the road so it may be next week before I can make it to the Post Office.

That had been my first thought, but if you look at the right hand side, it's definitely a Sunday School song...

Ack, be safe out there! Winter driving can be adventurous (we get ice and black ice here, making the driving no fun at all).

cuppy 01-13-2018 03:39 AM

Ok, I will try to guess on the next one , that is posted. today it is rather cool in Orlando low 60s. I am going to the bead shop and so some beading,

Stay safe on the roads with the snow.

cuppy 01-13-2018 03:44 AM

another guess ... This little light of mine...

Judith1005 01-14-2018 09:57 AM

kwyltaholic,

I received your postcard and goodies. You were very generous. And, your postcard was super clever. Thank you very much. I am putting the finishing touches on yours today and will get it mailed out on Monday or Tuesday. I'm working on uploading a photo. Just give me a bit.

Judith1005 01-14-2018 11:00 AM

Okay, here is the postcard I received from Kwyltaholic. It is both clever and tactile.

j50 01-14-2018 11:14 AM

My guess for Kwyltaholic is chantilly lace. If correct very nicely done.
Or maybe Here comes the bride. So many to choose from.

Judith1005 01-14-2018 11:20 AM

Nope J50, but great guesses. Better then I did. It is so obvious and I totally missed it. I'm so crap at guessing these songs. But, it's fun to associate the songs and postcards when they are revealed.

cuppy 01-14-2018 12:46 PM

Judith is it Nottingham Lace

j50 01-14-2018 01:17 PM

now that is look at it closer is it leather and lace?

CookieZenmilk 01-14-2018 01:44 PM

great postcards so far, not sure about the first one yet.

Texastam 01-15-2018 08:21 AM

Judith-my guess is pearls and lace? It is a beautiful postcard!

travelinggramma 01-15-2018 03:25 PM

Yes - "This little light of mine, Im going to let it shine"

Carolyn it has been snowing here for the pass three days so the mail is a little slower here now.

Armylady2012 01-17-2018 02:21 PM

Cuppy I mailed your FPC today sending PM with tracking.
