I made these postcards out of bits and scarps that I had lying around. I have no camera so I scaned them wich gives them a "flat" look.

Hi!
I love burlesque things and know a lot of you here too! So how about a swap for Burlesque crafts? Think pasties, top hats, chokers, heck maybe even an outfit.
This swap will be limited to ADULTS (since I dont want trouble here) so no under 18 yrs please!

Any takers? Or do I have to keep posting pics?

Here you go:

I thought I would share a Polyvore collage I just made for a blog I just started to help my partner in this swap  This is so much fun already!

I finally got my camera back! So here's all the awesome houses in the order as received.

The story behind this house made me cry since I can relate to the fear and pain of not being able to protect our loved ones from everything. Have faith Krista, its the only thing we can really have in this life!

Ok so this SUPER double sided house is simply too much! One side is christmas , and since I am in "christmas spirit mode" its very suiting! The mermaid side made me think about Puerto Rico (my home country) because of two things : beach and rum (bottle). I really love it!

This was an amazing swao and I cant wait for another round!
And I made another chunky house today and I thought I would share:

HERES A PICTURE!!!!!!!! NOW IM OFF TO CHANGE DIAPERS!


PS: CANT SEND PUT TODAY BECAUSE ITS RAINING

  Your update is very funny Murbeck!
 Well Im so lazy I took a stencil I had around my files and altered in PAINT to make this:



PS: I hate PAINT but Im too lazy to learn how to use Photoshop


Ohh and I love those old war posters!!! They show women as strong!

Hey folks!
So I took a little canvas tote that had some ad on it and sewed some pockets into it. Its a gift for  friend who has always wanted a garden but since she moves a lot she cant really have one yet. So I thought that having house plants could be the closest to a garden that she can have are interior plants or maybe a little interior garden! So I made a gardening bag with many pockets, some gardening tools, a book on house plants, 3 squirrel figurines for the pots, some planting pots and a

Enough talk, here's the pictures:

Comments appreciated!

I totally understand how you guys feel about your crafts not being apreciated or loved by your partners  It happened in my first swap, she liked art so I made a huge watercolor painting (and original) and even bought an expensive frame. I spent more than 8 hours painting and all she did was post on the thread that she had received and never posted pictures. Ohh and she wrote that the glass frame had broken while her bf carried the box home  She never posted pics or said she liked it 
Really bad experience for a first organized swap 

Here's a pic of the watercolor I made her:

It looked better in real life since this is only a photo of it framed already.

So I had all these pictures of graffiti I had taken for a project, but no use for them now. So I made a collage, cut some pieces out and glued them on some cardboard from a package I received recently. After many hours of arranging and cutting pictures, here's the final product:

 and a picture of the back:
