ATC's



Look at those beautys! These are for my AllthingsTim holiday swap!

I must have made 12 of them - I started on one and then I didn't like it and finally came up with this one! I has Celia look at them for encouragement!

Will be dropping them off at Allies tomorrow - we are being eco friendly and mailing them together!

Oh and I made a Taylor pendant for Miranda----Kind of blurry, I had to put it on the scanner since my flash on the camera kept giving me feedback! Ain't he a handsome one!

Thanksgiving

I slaved most of the day making turkey, ham, sweet potatoes, corn, green beans, cranberry sauce and rolls. We stuffed ourselves silly and then (a few hours later) had some cherry cheesecake, pumkin pie, apple pie and pumkin muffins.......silly me forgot to take pics.....just imagine 8 really really bloated santa's!


Off to work on my Tim ATC's for a swap! Have to work off that dinner from yesterday!!

Creations

Ok I know it's only been two days since my last post! Wow I am posting within two days instead of a week or a month!! It's cold and raining out side! Yucky day for sure!

I joined an online group called All things Tim! I went in an looked at the pics of what people have done and holy crap what was I thinking - these guys and gals are talented! Can I keep up? Will my stuff be good enough? ugh!

I saw many cool things and right away the wheels started spinning! I have so much stuff and ideas on the backburner that I need to get moving on them. It just seems there is not enough time during the weekend to make art! I am going to have to start prioritizing the things I want to do. I did join in on an ATC swap - boy howdy I started on it - have no idea when it is due but hey I am ahead of the game!! Here are some pics of what I started working on, mind you I may change my mind in the end and do something completely different!

Ok I can't upload pictures for some reason- anyone have any ideas why? I checked the faq's section and did what it said and still cannot upload???

November, what????

Well alot has gone on in the last few weeks! Some highlights are:

We got a new puppy, he's half boston terrier and half ?, we don't know, seems his momma was not particular! He is a cutie, we named him Boomer! He will be confused during the Sooner games for sure!! Boomer Sooner, lol!!

I went to a Croppinsville After Dark party on Friday, October 30th and made some wonderful creations and really got inspired to get some things done! Looking forward to the next After Dark party in November!



Have been working on my closet in my craft room - it's the one where everything goes when I don't know what to do with it! I emptied out five boxes most of which went into the trash and I have one box for Goodwill! It's not done but it's looking better! Not taking any pics of that mess!! lol

Finally working on the old window pane I bought last year at the flea market! I have ideas and trying to make time to work on it----I will post pics when I finish!
These are the tags I made for one of my group swaps - Everything Wendy Vecchi (yahoo group) If you love her stamps, you should check out the group! There are a number of talented ladies, some are listed on the sidebar on the right!



I have plans to work on some jewelry and other altered items -----One project at a time!

That's all for now!
Take care!
