Resort Swap COMPLETE

[New England Eeyore]

This Tuesday is the 2nd check in, and the last call for angels. If you haven't done so over the past week or so, please check in with your progress. If you think you will have difficulty finishing in time, please speak up and ask for an angel. I have a trip scheduled shortly after the due date, so I will need to keep firm to that deadline to make sure this is wrapped up before then.

Thanks to all who have checked in recently!

For my own progress, I am more than halfway done. I did a ton of work at my crop Friday night and I hope to finish over the next couple of weeks.

I am postal to MichellePooh in the box with the cruise swap. I didn't take any pictures this time. I caught DH's cold, and I was already hurrying to get it done when DH took stuff to the PO today, and ran out of time and energy.

Thanks! I'll get them from her in a couple weeks. I will take pictures of everything, don't worry. I'm just waiting until I have a big chunk to do at once.

It was so great to see you the other night at the crop! You were a busy bee - we didn't even get much of chance to chat and catch up with each other! Thanks for taking all Z2Hs and my swap stuff - and I hope you enjoy the spools of ribbon. I thought they were pretty cute and hope that you can use them somewhere...see you later!

It was good to see you too! I was a busy bee with my 10 zillion groups for this swap! We have to find a better seating configuration for the crop because my back is always to you. Thanks for the ribbon! I didn't open all the baggies yet, just took a peek at the stuff through the plastic, but what I saw looks terrific!

Do you have any raffita? That fake straw stuff? You could make your masks in different colors and one could have the raffita sticking out around it in short pieces and the other one could have longer pieces just coming off the top.

You could use inks to change the tones for the stand of trees. I cheated and used some Ivy with the Aspen for the trees on my photo mats.

See above.

You could always do a few different animals from the AK cartridge. Those wouldn't be color specific either so you wouldn't have to worry about rationing your Bazzill.

The suggested colors are just suggestions. You can use other shades of green also.

In blue.

 

[SusieStone]
