OH WOW.

OH WOW.

OH WOW.

That's seriously all I can say for now.  You will all be in the throws of jealousy when I post pics of the dolls (yes plural) alwaysinmyroom sent me.

OH WOW.

uh. little missy, one of those is for vtgirl's hubby...

oooo--so many good ideas--I could wear my white leisure suit!!!!

I was really extremely lucky to have been given two partners with very different talents!!!  Avril222 was my partner for a voodoo doll!!

My bundle of joy was delivered on my doorstep in the pouring rain--luckily, he was bundled up very well and covered up with junk mail and magazines (who cares about those!!!). It was weird because the box was covered on one side with a boxing mitt and a scuba mask and snorkel on the other--what the h*ll?

May I present the box, DAMIEN and his "luggage":



Here is a face that only a mother (ME!!) can love!



The birth certificate says:

                   Certificate of Rebirth
                   Name: Damien
                   Reborn on Sunday, July 17, 2006
                   Mother& Father: unknown
                  Seems to enjoy the colors black & red, people who kickbox, garden & scuba dive (ME!!!)



Finally, his "luggage" was a decorated felt roll with little clay pins--hee hee--garden tools, scuba mask, and freaking cute boxing gloves!!!



This was avril222's first swap!!! She did an amazing job --look at the black little pointy fingernails!!! The net baby bonnet is just too cute (I mean scarey, yeah, scarey--hee hee).  Thanks so much Avril!!!

Oh thanks!! I just learned what shrinky dinks from this site so I have a bunch of it but this will be my first time using it--hee hee--charliebrown, I hope you are not going to get blobs!! ha ha

Cute strawberry goodness!!!  Love the hat!! and of course, the yummmmmies!!

oops crafty_deb!!  See another boo-boo, ha ha--must have hit the wrong thingie--thanks for letting me know!! ha ha--I changed it in both places to be readable!!

Lovely handmade card!! I love the use of the puzzle pieces!!
