AK Element Swap Progress Thread--ALL HERE! GOING BACK TO YOU MARCH 3rd!

[StitchIsOurHero]

Just wanted to give us a little bump to see how everyone was doing! I know we still have quite a way to go until the deadline, but it'll probably be here before we know it!!

I think I have my plans the way I want them. I'm at a standstill till my new Cricut arrives. I had my pages planned using it. Now with the holiday, that puts the mail behind, so who know when it will arrive

I'm getting there.. I have my template done.. I like it a lot! Now, I just need to find the time to do it. .Today is out w/ basketball games from noon - 8pm.. Sorry.. Tomorrow! Tomorrow I will get this done.. well, right after I finish the Epcot one!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I know what I want to do just need to finish up the pet swap first.

With my ToL stuff done, I have turned my attention to the Epcot swaps. So I haven't even thought about my Asia stuff yet.

I have started working on my matted lyrics. I don't know whether I love it or hate it yet though. I'll let it sit for a couple days and think about it.

One group 100% done- and another 3/4th finished-

I mixed up the elements (opps..) so the themes dont line up with the elements chosen but they fit much better

I am so excited about this swap!! I can't wait to see everything!!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I'm going.. I'm going.. really I am.. I just can't get kids to cooperate!!!
So, this weekend I have requested Saturday to be my day.. I want to be in my scraproom all day working!!! Give me a radio, a beverage and I'm gonna get this done!!!

 

[StitchIsOurHero]

I think I've got about 1/2 day Saturday and most of the day Sunday (until the evening) to scrap and work on swap stuff. I'm hoping it turns out that way--I've got to get started!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

My update:
I haven't started on them..but I have my template.. I have B&MB making a few words for me..and I plan to have them already next weekend and when I receive my goodies from B&MB than I'll add them and be ready to mail!!!

I have my quote done and I'm working on one of the the tags now.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I'm working on the epcot one, but I have my items in mind and all the paper I need for this one.

 

[StitchIsOurHero]

Sounds like we're all rolling along! I have finished the Epcot and the pet, and I have my ideas for this one. Just have to get the paper and stuff this weekend, and then do this one and the MK one. We all seem to be surviving swap frenzy pretty well!

We all seem to be surviving swap frenzy pretty well!

I think the calendar was a huge success. It gave me an idea of what I wanted to join, and I started thinking about my ideas ahead of time.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I second the wonderfulness of the calendar.
Since I know it'll be a while before I join another and when, I can spend a little bit more on the embellishments of the current ones. Which is cool. If you don't find my style suits your book, you can take my stuff apart and use the good items. And you still like me.

 

[StitchIsOurHero]

AWM--your stuff is always beautiful!!

Buffy, I "third" the greatness of the calendar (if AWM seconds it, then I third it, right?? ). This helps me space out when I need to work on stuff, what I need to do, and it makes me able to do swaps even though I'm back to coaching. The calendar is awesome!

 

[KAMommy]

I have about half of one group cut and hope to cut the rest tonight or over the weekend. Actually, I HOPE to finish up over the weekend, but we will see.

 

[StitchIsOurHero]

I got some paper for this tonight--not sure if I got enough. I ran (really, not a pretty sight) into JoAnn's before we met my parents for dinner. I had 5 minutes to get whatever I could find that I needed (I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted) and then get out so we wouldn't be late.

I think I have everything I need. I'm going to try to get some time Sunday to assemble these!

It's hard to believe that our due date is a month from this Sunday! January has flown by!!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Let's see.. that was you that knocked me over in the scrapbook aisle!!! OMG! Thank you.. you allowed me to find a big, huge scrapbook on clearance for 5.00 (a 25.00 book)!!! Yee haw!!!
But you were evidently the one that took the last 2 xyron 500's that were on sale, right?? I had to come home and order them online for mom and I.. so my items can be cut out early next week and will wait to be assembled til the 500 gets here!!!
