Response: :-D so glad you liked it all... I had so much fun making those little envies! They were hard to part with, but I kept the pattern to make more for myself :-)
Response: :-) glad the US Ghostal Service was able to deliver it just fine... you know those cats... step step wash nap wash nap... ;-)
Response: i'm so glad this one got to you safely! i think i like this second one better than the lost first one :-) thank you for the rating & heart, and your patience!
Response: i was so happy when i finally found a machine that sold those fake mustaches and soul patches, and warts, too, LOL! i had loads of fun with this swap, though i used half my laundry money, hahaha!!! :-)
Response: glad it arrived safely! LOL, isn't that always the way? just when you start to worry, it shows up! you'll have to ask the cat and rat what bar they stopped at on their way to you, hehehe!
Response: i can hardly wait for the next part, too... i have a couple miniatures i've been hoarding! glad you liked the piggy... i might have to go buy one for myself today! thank you for the heart :-)
Response: :-) i knew i wanted to give away the "sample" necklace, and i knew it had to be to someone in SoS... then i remembered the surprise part of this swap, and, well... :-) Sixlets candies are soooo good... it was such a shame to have a few left over, i had to "force" myself to eat them, LOL! so happy you like everything! thanks for the heart, too!
Response: i'm so glad it made it with the envelope ripped! i'm going to have to start taping everything, grr! thank you for the info, and the 5 rating and heart! :-)
Response: i printed the black part of the wings on some clear acetate, and once it dried i used alcohol inks and dripped them randomly over it. i've been saving those wings for something special, and i'm glad you like this button fairy :-) she was very hard to part with!
Response: the front of the wings is printed cardstock i found at Michael's and the back is a heavy, shiny cardstock i found at JoAnn's. i'm so glad you liked him, but i know he went to a great home, so it's okay that he left me, sniff sniff, LOL! :-)
Response: haha... i have use this lady's image before, and thought she looked like she had a wicked streak... here's how devilish i thought she was, LOL: "Feeling Devilish:" http://www.flickr.com/photos/colleenpatke/4367015990/
Response: i ended up buying 6 of those kitty V-day cards, i loved it so much! 3 for the swap, one for a friend, one for my grandparents, and maybe one for me, LOL! thanks for the 5 & the heart :-)
Response: LOL, my predictions for how i spent the evening came true, with the movie and the diet root beer float, and the added bonuses of Sour Cream & Onion Pringles, and kisses to my kitties, for New Year luck, LOL! i'm glad you liked the card... i've had them for 3 years, and just decided they finally needed to be used :-) thanks for the 5 and heart!
Response: LOL, that's the same "problem" i'm having with the ones i've received... i'm not sure i can bear to part with them!
Response: thank you... i guess i was just tired yesterday (i spent the day writing on my NaNo novel, and then had dinner with my aunt and uncle... i think, perhaps, my brain had melted!!!)... i guess we both were confused, eh??? thank you for the 5 and the encouragement to make art-- i really do appreciate it!!!
Response: i know, it's going to be tough! when i was a kid i ruined my whole Christmas by opening all my presents a week before i was supposed to... what a disappointing year-- i wasn't surprised by anything :-( but i think i'll follow you, and not open it until i've got my first present-opening goal done!
Response: i'm so glad someone else remembers that song, LOL! :-)
Response: Glad you liked them :-) if you look close at the HP card, you can see it's part of the actual cover of book 1... i didn't want it to get wrecked, so i took it off the book... and it got wrecked, LOL! so it's becoming ATCs and things! again, glad you liked it all :-)
Response: i'm looking forward to it :-) and you're welcome for the backgrounds... anytime you want more let me know... i'm going to make even more this weekend, just for fun! :-)
Response: you're welcome, and thank you! i used to write a lot of poetry, but then began focusing more on fiction stories, though i do still write an occasional prose poem in my journal. but i've been so busy with ATCs lately that i haven't been writing anything but journal entries!
Response: i'm so happy you like her so much! she was such fun to make, and so hard to let go of! and guess what??? you are my 100th heart, too!!! thank you :-)
Response: thank you for the big thanks! yes, we watch those shows, too :-) having written about the Odd books, i'm thinking it's time to start over on the series. i'm so glad you enjoy your Diva Ghostie, LOL! i'm happy she found such a great new home!
Response: :-) thank you... and thanks for being my 100th 5!
Response: i got the pattern from a website, maybe it was listed by the swap host? i printed it out the same day i signed up, so i don't recall, LOL! so, yes, go ahead and "steal" the pattern :-) glad you enjoyed it!
Response: i started calling him my leeettle zeeeglet, LOL! i really miss the little guy... i guess i'll have to make myself one! glad you're enjoying each other! :-)
Response: glad you liked it :-) probably the envelope was handmade... i hand make almost all my envelopes, using up all the scrapbooking paper that otherwise would sit around and take up space... i do have a few business size envies left from years ago that are pre-printed with a cool unicorn scene, though :-) and right now i can't recall which i sent to you *blush*
Response: *blush* thank you! i so glad you enjoyed the little guy... he was so fun to make! that is my favorite pig image, ever, because of the way he sits. he seems to be saying so much with his face and pose. :-)
Response: Thank you, I'd love to hear back from you! I really do feel a bit of relief, like I got a bit of poison out of my system... Maybe we should have a whole series of "therapy" atcs, LOL!!!
Response: LOL... it's the same interfacing technique i told BeingJulia about... when it worked the first time, i loved it so much, i applied it to everything i could get my hands on! good thing the cats run fast!!! >:-)
Response: it's something i saw on an old Carol Duvall episode last year... use a double sided iron on interfacing, cut it the size of your paper, heat it with a heat gun until it's melty, then sprinkle on embosing powder, heat it again. sometimes i like to lightly ink the interfacing first (esp w/ rainbow colors) then use clear powder. :-)
