Here are the cards I got last week. I didn't get a chance to photograph them this weekend so I tried to do it today at work.
 I got this lovely cat card from seneris psyche. I love the way the cats look so victorian and proper.  

 And this is from stickerchic87 for my Red Riding Hood theme. I love the way the trees are made out of paper. I love the style of this card!

 Thank you so much ladies!!! I love all the cards I have been getting lately! Fantasic!

Oh my gersh! I swear this is the worst. My laptop was about 5 years old and used when I got it. It started really bogging down about three months ago and has progressively gotten worse. I went out and got a new laptop yesterday. I was so excited. My first laptop ever.... HATE it. It has Windows 8 and I can't do anything! My old laptop let me crop pictures and it took me over an hour just to figure out how to flip these! Ugh. I will play with it some more and hopefully figure it out or get something that allows me to crop them (is there a program besides Photoshop that does that?)
 So there is the explanation of the bad pictures. PLEASE, please, please post better ones if you have them!
 Apparently it didn't flip them...? In my folder they are the right way. So sorry guys. And then flickr is going to som crazy app instead of the actual site. HATE WINDOWS 8


 I got this card from virsky. It has a super cute kitty and the letters are glitter embossed. It's super cute. Thank you so much!


This lovely lady is from WideEyedLife. This is her first acrylics she said. She turned out beautiful. All your ladies are quite amazing and I am so excited to have gotten TWO this month.
 Thank you both so much!!! Again, please post better pictures. I am not sure what is going on with this laptop...

 I have a quick disclaimer. The pics are sort of bad. I know it and I plan to update them with better pics soon. My husband was called out of town for work because of an emergency caused by the storm and the camera is in his car.    I didn't want to delay any further in posting my wonderful package so I will doit now and update soon.
 I got an amazing package from caclark4. She has mad knitting skills (may be crochetting, I don't know the difference but everything is so amazing!).
 First up area some adorable little owls. I love the colors and the fuzzy one is SO soft!

 Next she sent me some super cute bookmarks. I just told my friend that I was in need of another bookmark swap and now I have 3!! Too cute. they have a sheen of glitter on the front of them. Also included is a beautiful ribbon. It has a neat design that I pulled out so you could hopefully see. And some pretty flowers that I am sure will end up on an ATC in the near future!

 and last but not least is this amazing deer hat. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this hat. It is perfectly made and so fun to wear. I especially love the pink ear fuzzies.

 Thank you so much caclark4! The package was amazing and whenever you start swapping again you will have a very lucky partner!
 Thanks!!!!!!

For those of you that read the "sleeve on it" posts be prepared to start singing again, only a different tune. 
 I got this hilarious card from ghilie a couple days ago. Life has been insane and this was the first time I had to post it up. The card is wonderful. AND she sent me an extra that you may recognize and be uber (oh yeah, I said uber) jealous to see that I got.


Sorry the pictures suck so bad. My husband was called up north due to an emergency with work from the storm and my camera is in his car. I didn't want to wait to post because then Halloween would be over! 
 Thank you so much ghilie. I love the card. Great sense of humor!!!!!

 Oh WOW! Love the paper doll. How creative. I may have to hit you up for a private swap Pilarfarmer! 

 I was sending jillybeans the list of cards that had been posted and realized that I didn't post my card from Oyhana. I thought I had already. Sorry Oyhana! The card is fantastic. It's for my random close up objects theme...

 Once again. Sorry for posting so late. The card is stunning. Thank you! 

Sorry it took me a couple of days to post (some) of my cards. For some reason they weren't downloading onto Flickr..blah, blah, blah... On to the good stuff!

I got notone but TWO amazing cards from SunnyDawn. I love mermaids and these are fantastic.
,

Next up is from our lovely organizer - jillybeans. We did a private swap but I am going to post it here. Hopefully she won't mind.  

 It reminds me of mrs peregrine's home for peculiar children.

Last but not least... A beauty named Belle from the ever talented WideEyedLife!!!

I have so been wanting to try the toned paper thing but after seeing yours I am even more intimadated. Love it!

 Hey everyone! I got these cards earlier this week and time was just not on my side as far as posting.
 I love them!
 First up is from Jennleahlynn. She sent me a very beautiful pumpkin patch. It is absolutely amazing. Wonderfully shaded. I love it. It's very appropriate for all of Fall.


 Next is from the ever talented Wulf. He sent me this clever little card. I love the way it looks vintage-ish.

 And open the door and...

 I think the skeleton looks a little shocked too!
 Thank you so much! I love them both!!!!!

 I joined the Surprise Halloween ATC Swap and had a lot of fun making these cards. They have all be received so I thought I would go ahead and post them before the holiday season changes from the frightful to the merry!
 
 This was actually my last card done but I was really proud of myself for spraying it down. I was worried I was going to ruin it and have some random crazy streak somewhere. I think it turned out good. I was happy. It's, of course, from Psycho.
 
 
 I thought I would be funny and use A.T.C. for the graves initials. Yep, I am a big dork. It's suppose to look like the zombie drug himself across the cemetery.


And this little scarecrow breaks free at night.. and is tough enough to tackle that fence! Watch out for him.  

 I hope everyone enjoyed their cards. I had a lot of fun making them and they really put me in the Halloween spirit!  

I joined the monster swap that was going on last month and had a ton of fun doodling up monsters. I ended up having a bunch of drawings but not much else to do with them. I didn't want to send a completely flat package so I knew it was time to branch out from 2-D drawings and try my hand at something 3-D-ish.
 The altered tin swaps always inspire and amaze me so I wanted to do an easier version of that. I am no where near ready to do a tin! I took a couple of my drawings and photocopied them in case I messed them up and put them on two paper mache boxes I got from Michael's. I thought they turned out cute and I plan to make some more to use as the wrapping for Christmas presents. 

 here are the tops. Ever since I discovered Distressing Ink I have become a junky! LOL!

 This was the best shot I had of the sides. I used scrapbook paper. I used a little felt flower to hide where the paper met in the front. I thought it turned out cute.

  I drew up the monsters myself and colored them with Copic Markers. And here it is with some of the goodies (I made stickers too!) I put inside or sent along with it.
 I have some owl and sock monkey stuff to make more of these for my sister. 
Thanks for checking them out!

 When I saw that jillybeans birthday was coming up last month I wanted to send her a little birthday surprise. I know she loves both Harry Potter and The Hunger Games (more HP!). I found this really cool design on-line and knew it was what I had to make for her.
 I have only done a couple of stencils using the freezer paper and it pulled up a little on the letters, sorry Jill.
 I have to say a special THANK YOU!!! to IdlersDesign who was her partner in the tee-shirt swap and told me jillybeans size and style preference. You rock IdlersDesign and really helped me surprise her! Couldn't have done it without your help!

 It wraps around the side a little on purpose. 

 Thanks for looking!
