Maybe you still remember the give-away i had some weeks ago? And after a week or so, ALeksandra had her book in the mail. And Jasmin, Laura and Jayne were happy after receiving their card. But i didn't hear from Rachel about receiving the book. I was checking on her, after 3-4 weeks or so, and it became clear she didn't receive anything. So i was trying to find out where the package had stuck. Unfortunately i had no luck, i didn't find out where the package had stuck. :-SBut then i realized that i probably had made a stupid mistake. I always make a little original drawing on the last page of each book with my drawings. One of a kind. So i thought it would be great to place something special on the last page of Organic worlds as well. Therefore i made a nice little bag with seed in it. Seed of the nightcap poppy, which gives beautiful flowers. I didn't realize that this could bring trouble at the border. I think that's the reason why Rachel never received her book in the first place. Although i can't find out if it really stucked at the border.
So i've send a new package to Rachel, without the seed but with a little drawing. I keep my fingers crossed, hoping all goes well this time.
Enjoy your weekend and dream sunny poppy dreams.

i loved the drawings you did on my booklets .... so special .
mail has this . sometimes fail . don't blame yourself .
Monica,
I wouldn't have though so, but I guess that makes sense...the dogs probally picked up the scent of opiates. That's a shame, but at least you figured it out!
I don't know if I've ever told you, but I love the fact that you use a singing bowl to hold the names for drawing. We have one of the bowls in the house too to "clear" the air and bring peace over everything.
I hope you are doing well! Thank you for all of your kind words lately! I see them all.
Have a good weekend,
Brian

hi Monica, all your doing is so lovely and nice and specialy, I m sorry to hear about you trouble you had, it so great what you are doing. have a nice weekend and take care of you ! love Kathrin
al die regeltjes.....
Hi Monica - thanks for popping on by! It's been a while since we were in contact. Glad you enjoyed seeing the altered book collaboration - it's been a real labour of love. I see you have published 3 booklets of art! Fantastic work.
three booklets, a real achievement to savour, Monica ... but as for poppy-seed sniffing dogs, can't they get their highs some other way? what a crazy world - we can't post a sprinkling of seeds for a garden, while the Taliban grow untold acres of narcotics.
I don't blame myself too much Caio. ;-) But i was a bit naive i suppose.
I'm glad you like the drawings in your booklets, çause i draw them especially for you. :-)
Brian, i do think that's the reason why Rachel didn't get it, but i bought these seeds just in a supermarket, so i never thought it wasn't okay.
And no you never told me that before, but yes we love the singing bowl here as well a lot. Such a great sound, bringing calmth and peace. I love it that you also use a bowl. :-)
Hi sweet ALeks,
i'll change the link. I hope the sun will give you more ease in your mind. I send Rachel a new package , so if all goes well, she must receive it one of these days.
Hugs and xxx!
Hi Kathrin, i also send a new package with the card your way, so you must recieve it one of these days. Please, let me know. :-)
Sweet greetz!
Ja Yvette, en ik was zo onschuldig haha. Kocht de zaadjes by Intratuin of zo. :-s
Ik hoop dat het goed met je gaat lieve meis.

Hi Debrina, so good to see you here again. Yes i enjoyed the altered book collaboration very much so!
