Disney Cruise Swap Progress Thread - On their way home!

[AlexWyattMommy]

hmmm, maybe you would like an extra color grouping of mine for a towel animal group of yours? Pretty please with sugar on top.

 

[hopemax]

AWM, you are too funny.

So let's do this now, instead of later.

I made this for my group 1, I have 3 extras....yea or nay?

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Oh YES!!

 

[Michellepooh]

Hope, that is amazing as always! Absolutely gorgeous!!!!!

 

[ohMom]

Captain Mickey!!

 

[tiggermei]

Checking in now that I'm back. I've got it laid out and materials purchased for both groups. I'll get to work probably next weekend.

So, what is your favorite online store? ....

LOL, it's ScrapVillage.... the owner is Tana, who I met on our DCL cruise last December! I didn't know she was the owner at first, when I met her here on the Dis. Small world!

 

[Michellepooh]

Welcome back Tiggermei! Hope you had a wonderful trip. Thanks for checking in!

bubbasmom - I'll have to check out ScrapVillage!

 

[TPCShauna]

Hope - I would like one of those Captain Mickeys. What would you like in exchange?

My update - I've sketched my plans but not started. I most likely won't be starting these until late October/early November as I have 5 swaps due this month.

 

[YodasMom]

Just checking in....I just got home around midnight last night from WDW.

I haven't done anything since I last checked in. I do have paper and some embellies for some of the spots. It will probably be November before I have time to assemble. Just wanted to let you know I'm here...(barely)!

 

[Michellepooh]

Thanks for checking in Shauna and YodasMom!

YodasMom - hope you had a fabulous time at WDW!

 

[YodasMom]

Hey Michelle~ I was just looking at the list of elements on the OP, and was wondering if 2 slide mounts would be acceptable as one element? I didn't notice them listed.

Thanks!

 

[Michellepooh]

YodasMom - slide mounts would be great! I'm really not "picky" about what people decide for their elements. We have such a creative group participating in this one that I'm sure we'll see lots of different stuff! Feel free to create "whatever" - I'm sure it will be fabulous!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Ooo, she said I could create whatever. YES!

Nah, actually, my creativity is at a low point, so I won't be coming up with any new elements anytime soon.

 

[Michellepooh]

Awww, c'mon, AlexWyattMommy. This is your chance to shine - what new element can you create?!

 

[hopemax]

I'm having a problem that I want to work on items but can't because I've been waiting for my bug. It's supposed to be here tomorrow. I've been wanting it so I could make things in different shapes.

You can have mine!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

You don't like your bug??

 

[YodasMom]

You don't like your bug??

I probably wouldn't buy it again if I had a choice. I think it's possible to be a lot more creative without it. For me, it limits the kind and weight of paper I can use, and the shapes and combinations of those shapes are limited. But, that's just my own opinion for the needs I have.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I don't use my bug on all my swaps.
I think of it more as an accessory maker. I've done whole swaps without using it once. And yet I couldn't have made a few of my elements without it.
So I like it. I just don't design my items around only it.
