What a fabulous idea, Karima! I wished I'd thunk of that!
I have to agree with Shelley Noble. What a marvelous idea. You can expect a letter from me next week. I enjoy your blog and I only wish I were closer. I know that Oregon isn't that far but in this time of economic stuggles 40 miles is a long way. You are over a 1000 miles.

Here, here! Count me in! I am proud to have been touched by your charm and grace. Your Blog is none other than Brilliant- as are you and your Castle.
My pin just arrived in the mail, and I am happy to wear it. When I was a teenager I used to send my friends fantastic letters filled with glitter and so decorated on the envelope that it is amazing they ever arrived to their intended address. Your challenge inspired me, and it was fun to pull out the paints, and bring back the fun. Thanks so much!
Thank you, Castle in the Air, for honoring me with The Blue Castle Badge! I was so surprised and tickled!
I am going to get out my pen and pretty paper and write you a letter!!!
I have mentioned your site SEVERAL times on my blog!
I have also been lucky enough to take 3 classes from carolyn dunn(felting!!!)
Thanks
