Hey, Nancy, don't forget to add us mini-group people to your list! I am just scatterbrained enough to forget which swaps I am in!

I have my stuff. I thought the Living Seas would be easy - fish, right? Well, there are very few, non-cheesy fish things out there, but I finally got lucky at Hobby Lobby on Friday (when I should have been planting flower beds...)

I had the same experience. The fish brads are hideous. I did find some cute fish stickers.

JennyL & Rachelcay:

I have your items!!
The are great!!! I'm so thrilled to see everyone get these...

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Just sending our some encouragement to everyone.. I know the end of the year gets hectic for all of us.. (May is my year end since I had kids! August starts a new year for me!

I'm getting packages in and I must say we have very creative scrappers out there!!

 

[jennyL]

Glad they got there all in one piece.

No kids for me yet so my year still starts in January but with the move my June will be getting hectic so I'm trying to get everything done ahead of time.

I know what you mean Nancy about August- May being your year.

I have all of my elements made just need to put my embellishments together and I'm ready to send them out. Hopefully I will finish up this weekend, so I can mail next week. I'm so excited I found the coolest ribbon for this swap. I went to Michael's yesterday to see what I could find, finally found some which wasn't really what I wanted, but,anyway when I was in line to check out this lady came in and returned some ribbon that was perfect, so I kept an eye on it and they threw it in the bins for a dollar, well I got out of line and went and got it. It has flags from different countries on it. It is perfect for the World Showcase.

OMG! I would have stalked her!! That ribbon sounds great and for 1.00 that made it even better!!! I'm gonna look for some tomorrow when I'm out... probably won't find any here!
No rush on the swap.. take your time!!! ENJOY!!

 

[momx3boys]

I almost felt like a stalker. Some of the countries on the ribbon aren't in the showcase, so I hope that is okay. I just thought is was perfect since it had countries flags on it.

Could you imagine the lady had you started following her around the store!

I think the ribbon sounds perfect.. maybe we could send the extra to the imagineers to let them know that they could always add these countries!!

 

[momx3boys]

LOL, You know when I was standing in line and saw the ribbon she was returning, I kept thinking, how am I going to get it. No, really when I made it to the cash register I was going to ask them if I could get it, but the guy took off with it so I stalked (oops meant watched) him and he just threw it in the $1 bin. I'm so glad I was there then and saw it. When I saw where he put it I looked around for more and those were the only rolls I saw. Anyway, I was just glad I got it, pretty sad to be so excited over ribbon.

My update: I have all of my supplies and my ideas sketched out. I just need to put everything together.

Chille's update: Jill has everything cut out so all she needs to do is assemble it.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Hi! I'll be ready to mail this weekend!!

Michelle,

I think I am done. The fish keep popping off the waves of The Living Seas toppers. I have tried another adhesive and put them under weight. If the fish decide to stay at The Living Seas where do I send my stuff too.

No problem!!! Could you imagine the mailman/woman's face if fish start popping out at them! Well, I hope you get them undercontrol! If not I'll have my kids' fishing poles ready to reel them back in!
