Comment: Thank you for the wonderful ATC's and the lovely extras!!! Hope to swap with you again!!

Comment: Erna!! WOWIE! These have got to be some of the best ATCs I've ever received!! I LOVE it when people paint/draw etc on their ATCs because I'm not talented in that way ;) You did an AMAZING job on these!!! Each one portrays each sin so well! I enjoyed your thorough note, with awesome handwriting to boot! I think the colors you chose are perfect for each one, and of course your hubby could identify each one, because you did such a great rendition of each sin! My favorite, out of your ATCs is Envy ;) My favorites of the sins in general would have to be Wrath and Sloth. You are a very talented artist, keep up the good work! I am so lucky to have had you as my partner for these, I am proud to have them on display in my books! ♥

Comment: You are amazing! I love my bag, the goodies and that I've received so quickly. I would give you lots more hearts if I could. xxxx
