With the exception of Vikki's card which came ages ago, all the cards were in today's mail. What a treat! They make a cheerful addition to the card display and my DB will surely have something to say about the new magnets on the fridge. The stickers were immediately useful with some last minute cards I wrote tonight and the sparkly ornament was a very nice thought. Thanks ladies for your generosity and thoughtfulness - and for the delicious looking recipe too! Merry Christmas! Shallon

Mairin: Your kitchen is amazing! Have you posted any photos of your completed backsplash yet? Thank you so much for posting such good expansive shots of your RP walls. It looks a lot more tan on my screen, but I can tell that it is going to work great for me as my cabinets are almost as dark as yours and my granite is light (Blanco Romano). Based on the 14 x 8 panel I painted I tend to wonder if need to go a bit deeper in tone. I understand that most paint can be lightened as I've seen reference to 50% strength, but can the same thing be done to darken the paint? I was thinking perhaps just a 10% or 20% deepening. On the other hand once I get the full walls painted it may be just fine. I'll check out the decorator's white. Cloud White was also mentioned earlier but tends to be too yellow next to my horrible white/gray window frames that can't be changed out at this time, but BM lacey pearl might work well. raehelen: Cabot Trail reminds me of melted milk chocolate. The Edgecomb Gray which is next to the Revere Pewter on the swatch card has a bit more tan to it, but is still quite gray. It is lovely too, but I needed the cooler tone of the RP. In my spavce both tend to have a green cast in certain lights.

I was just asking this morning on the the Facebook KT Group if anyone had seen your post yet, Tami. Thanks, Monica!! It has been so great over the past few years to get cards in the mail nearly every day through the holidays, I really enjoy it. I'll be emailing you shortly and thanks for organizing it again this year! Suzan J

twinkle nose...I used to do a lot of painting when I was selling crafts...but not so much anymore...I kind of miss it.

If I wasn't such a putz at driving distances, I go to grammahony's mother for lessons...She paints watercolors and is extremely good...maybe sometime Leslie will share some of them with us...They live about an hour from me.
