Welcome to the swap DanniQuee and Mellifluous!

your swap info is updated - my work computer doesn't like craftster - always gives me fits when trying to post - keeps timing out - I think it's all the extra goodies on the pages now. But finally got it done 

it's going to be such a fun swap I think <G>  can't wait to get started on it - I have a couple of projects I want to get started on

[irid3sc3nt]

I'm way excited.  I haven't swapped in forever--I've missed it!!!

Here's a link to this person's collection on Flicker:

I agree. I had fun last year. And there was a lot of great stuff on the gallery. I've already started an extra. There's no way to know what a partner will ask for but extras can be anything.
