I'm on the web server problems right now. Everything is taking so long! Hopefully it be all done before the weekend.
Then I'll post pics.

I just got my package from klara.detroit! I love everything!
She screen printed a Shaun tee. I've never had a screen printed tee before so I'm over the moon about it - and it fits!
A "this house is clean" rag - very cute.
And an earring/necklace set inspired by Moulin Rouge. Very lovely and just in time for holiday parties. The best part about it is that my pierced ears have keloided and closed up and will be hard to re-pierce and she made me lovely dangly earrings with clips - my co-worker is fauning over them right now. I missed not having pretty earrings to wear - thank you sooo much!
She also included the soundtrack to Snoop (the real deal - so she is playing by the new swap rules) which has Swan Lake Ballet Suite (Billy Eliot) on it.
Hopefully she took pictures - if not I think I saved a few frames on my current roll of film just in case.
She did a lovely job thank you so much for the fun swap!

Auntie Em- the keychain was pretty simple but requires some extra materials- 3M Self Laminating sheets
I copied the pictures from different sites on the web- mostly IMDB and made them all thumbnail size, if they weren't already.
I laid them all on top of the laminating sheet for placement viewing. Once I know where to place them all I cut the sheets to use only the piece I need. The sheets are 8 1/2 x 11 so I hate to waste 1/2 a page if I don't need to!
 Open up the 2 attached pages- position the pics on the back of the front page (leaving 1/4 in. around all sides of each pic) and slowly peel half the backing paper off the back page. Carefully roll the back page over the front page, while smoothing them together. Peel off rest of paper and finish page as before.
Cut and trim each pic, leaving a little strip of plastic around the outside of each picture to keep them sealed.
I used an ice pick to punch my holes, but an awl works as well. A standard hole punch is a little more difficult to use on this plastic.
Mount onto jump ring or key ring and you have a cool custom key ring.

Thank-you for for posting the instructions! Hmmm, punching with an awl - you'll be seeing me in the stich and botch thread later this week
