I think I have it all updated correctly.

4ltlTinks - your package came today. WOW!! I love the use of cork. I've seen the fake cork paper, not the real stuff. It is so much better. Thank you so much for the title (and fiber). I will have to post the picture when I post the others so everyone can see it.

So with just two in hand, this swap is going to be excellent. I can not wait to see the rest.

I have just a couple of little things to do and I will be done. I wanted to have this done last week, but other things kinda got in the way. I am still on the fence about how I want to embellish my tag and once that is figured out, I will be good to go. The plan is to have it in the mail before the weekend.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I have you updated. And I totally understand, I bought paper & embellishments in January and now I don't know what I was thinking. So I just got back from buying different paper & ribbon. Guess I'll be making a few school albums to use up the other items.

 

[4ltlTinks]

Glad it arrived and glad you liked it! Can't wait to see everything...

I'm planning on working on this this weekend.

Ok, I have scrappers block- I can not come up with any gender specific shaker boxes- I was wondering if I make some general school themed shaker boxes if everyone would be ok with it- For example I can do an apple, school bus, and backpack for each person in both groups.

What do ya'll think?

Let me know, as I can cut them out, complete them and mail them this weekend!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Totally okay. I just didn't want those who signed up for boys to get girly things and those who signed up for girls get boyish things. So gender neutral for either should be okay.

Oh, and hey copycat. Guess you have a cricut too?

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Oh, hey, you could, if you have the papers, make the girls' in pastel and the boys' in primary colors and you would still be considered gender specific.

And I'll take the cat down later. He's just too cute. I was just going to make little ones as embellishments, so it'll be cool have bigger ones to match.

Yes- I do have a cricut but I also have die cuts at school. If you think a lot of people will be using those items- I could do something with else- we have lots of die cuts at school.

[AlexWyattMommy]

Nope, I don't think a lot of people will be using it. Even if they did, the chances of everything looking the same really are slim to none.

You just do what feels right to you. I can't tell you how many times I've changed my mind even after cutting everything out. I have prototypes that look nothing like the ends ones.

PS- I'll go take the cat away. It was cute though, right?

I'm fine with whatever you decide on Mickeyteacher!! I love all the shaker box ideas!!!

I did bright colors for both my boys and non-gender.. I went dark (musical) on my girls but they could actually be used as non-gender too!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

PN96, I have your items. I have the same crayon ribbon for my things. Found it at Mike's on Monday.

This swap is going be good!!!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

There is where DD found it for me!!

Great minds think alike!

Do they look okay or not??? I have plenty of time to re-do if needed!!!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

They look great. Wish I was in the girlie girl swap. I love what you made for them.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

tiggermei, you items are here. I love them. I never ever think about stuff like that when planning out my elements. You girlie girls are really going to like it.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Okay, mine are officially done. WooHoo, early too!

 

[Mickeyteacher]

I have my idea, supplies and die cuts done- not to put them together!

I am planning on working on mine today. My class has a sub because I was called for jury duty but we were dismissed at 9:00.
