ONGOING ATC SWAP ROUND 3

[OriginalYouth]

Oh, Joyous (who has the coolest real name ever) that cat is FAB.  He makes my eyes itch to look at him (sadly, allergic), but I still want to pet him!  What a nice helper.   I just have to share my supplies with a 3 year old, and my 1 year old eats my supplies (human children).  Ahh, our lovely crafty pests.

Oh, Joyous (who has the coolest real name ever)

*Raina looks at A_A...* Did she just say coolest?

Yes, Raina yours and A_A's are cool too, but I ADORE Joyous' name, it's very bohemian.    Sorry girls, if you guys are offended.....sorry. ....(trying not to step on toes)

Awwww, Leah seriously needs to invent a blushing emoticon.  It took a long time to grow into my name, but I love it! (Bristol Ivy, for interested parties).  Thanks for the compliment, OY.  And yours are both amazing, raina and A_A!

[OriginalYouth]

Yeah, what about mine?  It's only as popular (read: common) that it was in the top 10 girls names, from 1978-2002!!!! BOOoooring.

As much as I appreciate conversations about interesting names , please keep the subject crafty, my dear swappers.

I received my hedgehog card from FizzledImpulse.  It's called Hedgehog Halloween:



It's so cute!

[KatAutumn]

OMG!  That Hedgehog Halloween is the bomb!

I received my last 2 cards today! Both are from fizzledimpulse (they came late. Phew. But they did come!)

She picked my skulls theme and my (drag) queens theme:

(She says the skull is a section from a linocut... which will have to be explained to me! But I think it's really originally [and scary ]. The drag queens card says "You know what they say about QUEENS with big feet... They wear big shoes!" Haha. Awesome. Thanks fizzled!

And.. I'm also posting a bunch of cards I made that I don't think have made a trip to the gallery...  (excuse the sizes. My scanner does whatever it wants).

Rocketships/outer space for fizzledimpulse (the colours are less gross in real life. I think.)

And I suppose I'll leave my hardcoremothball card until she returns!

[fizzledimpulse]

the rocketship is definitely not gross at all in real life    it's pretty awesome, actually.

also, the skull is, indeed, a section of a linocut that i did....which entails carving into a piece of linoleum, rolling ink onto the then carved linoleum, and then printing the carving onto paper.

i'm so glad you like them both and that they finally made it!

[Katxena]

The skull is awesome!
