Surprise Swap III ~ completed~

[hopemax]

If you are in the mood...go to page 1, post 2...PICTURES!

[Michellepooh]

Thanks for posting the pictures. Things look great.


I have to know - who made the Grumpy paper piecing?!?! My 3 year old DS is obsessed with Grumpy, to the point that we all have to call him Grumpy!! Yes, it is lots of fun marching around the house singing, "heigh ho, heigh ho". So, what do I need to do to get a Grumpy paper piecing since I wasn't in that group?!

[hopemax]

SIOH made Grumpy, she also made Dopey for group 7, I think. There are several ladies who own the Cricut cart he comes on, so you should have no problem finding someone to get Grumpy a Grumpy.

[Michellepooh]

Thanks Hope. Time to go make some shameless pleas! It's so bad that DS even introduces himself to others as "Grumpy" and gets mad if he's called by his given name! Did I mention that he thinks Snow White is his girlfriend?

[AlexWyattMommy]

Who made the monorail piece and what do want in exchange for it?

[KatDisney]

well, I was in the process of posting the pictures....

Susie made the monorail

[AlexWyattMommy]

Thanks. I'll bug her later, after the holidays.

[hopemax]

Sorry, I figured you would be sleepy. Your pictures are probably better than mine. Mine, aren't closeup. And there are still many groups I couldn't do.

[KatDisney]

No worries :) I posted the link to the pictures in the first post. They are not sorted into groups I just took pictures as I took them out of my box.

Ladies, once again you are all amazing and make the most wonderful creations. I am so honored to place these items in my books.

I didn't mean to sound grumpy in my previous post. The police were just here and I hit the button before I was done posting. Someone egged my car last night and we didn't notice it until I was putting the groceries in the back. DH reported it just in case. We found it odd that only the house next to us and ours were the only cars hit.

Wow!!!! I was in 8 groups and that wasn't enough. Some really cool things! Thanks so much to Kat & Hope for running this. When is the next one???:cool1:

[MazdaUK]

There's some cool stuff waiting to come home:thumbsup2 Thanks for that mega-sorting job:flower3:

[Princess Jayne]

Wow! the stuff in this swap is great! I love the princess stuff (the ones with the border things!) - who made that? its great!!! The paper piecings are all fab! x

[missesdisney]

They look great! Ok in case I'm not in those groups - WHO made the princess side border thing and what is that done on? They are sooooo cool.

[123SA]

Well...if you are referring to the princess borders in photos hpim1860 and hpim1861, they are mine but I can't take credit for them. It is a bought item. I did make the matching pieces.

[hopemax]

Kat and I were wondering where those borders came from. I thought maybe they were a CM item, but that was just a guess.

[Princess Jayne]

Well...if you are referring to the princess borders in photos hpim1860 and hpim1861, they are mine but I can't take credit for them. It is a bought item. I did make the matching pieces.

Yup! those were the ones i meant! the whole sets are lovely! x

[missesdisney]

Yup! those were the ones i meant! the whole sets are lovely! x

They are so awesome - where did you find them if you don't mind my asking? The pieces with them are lovely as well!

[123SA]

They are from a pretty old paper line...I think it was called the paper garden? Anyway, I got them for a steal from scrapbookclearance.com. I believe I still have some left. Glad you all like them!

[Dreamer & Wisher]

WOW! I wasn't in this swap, I just wanted to look at the pictures. This stuff is gorgeous!

Everyone did a great job.

[mommy2mrb]

Wow, what great things ladies, now I'm sad I only signed up for one group, next time MORE!!!

Hope I think I was the one who requested the girl stuff, Yay, I get the mice, they are too cute. They will be perfect for DD trip to BBB/CRT breakfast pages.

[MazdaUK]

I soooo want my stuff to be there when I get home :yay:

[KatDisney]

Everything is mailed

[bearbear]

Hope your stuff was way better in person than in the photo. DH loved the HTH stuff!

[Faerie]

Got mine too! Once I finish a couple paint cans, I'll be able to take a close look

[123SA]

I got my box today. Wow wow wow!!! So much great stuff. DD7 and I spent an hour looking through it. Some of her comments -- "that Hope person is really talented" and the Mushu set didn't come with a label, DD said "I know it must have come from Susie, it looks just like the Lilo set. Can I have it?"

Thanks so much to everyone and especially to our hostesses!

[Mickeyteacher]

I got my box today. Thanks for everything- it looks great!
Thanks to the hostess---- it sure took a lot of work to get this one sorted.

Thanks again for hosting and to Hope for taking so much special time for all of us.

[mommy2mrb]

Hope thanks again for the mice, DD LOVES them, told her we would use them for her CRT breakfast pages and she :banana: on me.
