Partner Swap- Holiday Theme! Challenge#7 Post #2

[Arizona Rita]

Hi Belle
I need help with a title.
You mentioned opening presents but do you have a special family name for that time? Or do you call the presents, gifts, pressies, whatever?
You are too young to remember this but there was a store called Mervyns (think Kohls) and they had a commercial with the saying "Open Open Open" which my husband and I still use the saying, for example.
I have 2 titles done, one possible, two in the works and this one!
Hope to hear from you soon and thanks!

haha Mervyns! Love that commercial.

That sounds like a fun title.

Rita, I am sure she will love whatever you do.

I do remember Mervyns, I grew up in their clothes! The "Open Open Open" title would be fine. We don't have a special name for that time, and we call them presents. We do open one gift on Christmas Eve, it's always pajamas (but don't tell my Mom that I'm onto that fact!) (that way we always look nice in our new pajamas for the Christmas morning pictures!)

Challenge #7
6-or more Winter/Holiday/Christmas Paper piecings

 

[mommy2mrb]

fun challenge Rachal! have a couple titles to finish up & then will get started on these!

 

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

Last challenge is this week!

I just need to know where everyone is.. mailing date is fast approaching.

 

[tyniknate]

I have 2 banners and last week's challenge to complete. Why oh why are these banners giving me such a hard time? I'm not happy at all with them Everything else I'm happy with and I should be completed and mailed on time (depending on the final challenge).

 

[JJ&JHsmom]

I am working on my last paper piecing. I may redo one of my banners as I am not completely happy with it.

 

[mommy2mrb]

I have a couple titles & my winter PP to do, will have everything done this week!

 

[morgansmom2000]

I will be on time to mail on 10/24

 

[kkbeaton2]

I have everything completed except the banners (which are designed and just need to be cut), and the 2 page LO pieces (which are also designed and just need to be cut). I will be ready to mail on time.

Belle has almost everything cut, but still has some assembling to do. She should be ready to mail on time as well.

Alright sounds great ladies.

I am planning to work on these this week and over the weekend. Fall/rain has set in

Jennifer, I know this is going to sound completely dumb.... can you resend me your questions? I am not sure what I did with them but I cant find them I just winged it at the store and i am 87.5% sure that I was right.

Mine? Or Morgan's? I'll just email both I can't find them in my PM list, but I've got them in a draft email. I'm sure everything you got will be great

 

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

Yours. I'm pretty sure I printed yours out when I printed the ones for DD.

Got them! Ds and I were out killing some time. So I thought I'd finish up. Few things to do today. Mostly finish up swaps. Finally got my paper in the mail on sat. Been waiting forever!

 

[Arizona Rita]

Good morning,
I have 3 titles to finish, that DL trip got in the way
I cut 5 pieces out yesterday and now just need to do alot of glueing.
We have one last challenge this week and our project right?
I should be able to mail on time, I dont really see anything preventing that so I think all is good.

Always feels like forever, doesn't it?

I'm thinking I won't drag the Cricut out today...I can stay home and craft all day on Thursday

 

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

I'm pretty sure it was forever. I ordered from j's. But I got what I needed. Counting down the days to not having to do that anymore.

I'm going to bake cupcakes on thurs. Peppermint mocha, for my keuring party Fri night. I also picked up some pumpkin so may do something with that.

 

[morgansmom2000]

I emailed you a Pumpkin Blondie recipe. They are TO DIE FOR! Batter is stiff, but worth the work.

We decorated cupcakes last night. I was pretty pleased for my first try

 

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

Got it! Thanks! Printing it out.

Love the cupcakes. those classes were so fun. I still have my books. I use them from time to time. when it comes to the fondant part you should use the marshmallow fondant. Its a little harder to work with but the taste is soooo much better.

 

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

Thanks, I can work with those!

We do the pumpkin patch, apple picking, going to a corn maze in a couple weeks - Davis Mega Maze, probably less costume stuff, but I have years and years of scrapping to do!

Just finishing up some loose ends This one had a murder mystery theme to it? I just had a semi brilliant idea.... haha. how long did it take?
