Wicked Circus Altered Tin Swap CLOSED! S/O April 1

[rackycoo]

When everyone receives their partner, make sure you tell them everything you're writing here! I, for one, don't need blood and gore to think a circus is wicked...I think any vintagey type circus with old images is wicked enough.

I am so excited about this swap! I went and got some great Cirque papers from Graphics 45 today, and I can't wait to incorporate them in my tin. Only three spots left...anyone know of anyone who could rock this swap out? Send them a pm!

I agree! Anything vintage, especially side-show type stuff, is super creepy and wicked if you ask me.

I'm really excited about this swap but also a bit nervous . I'm an altered tin newbie but I have 12 altoid tins ready to practice on and I'm determined to do my best to keep up with all of you pros!!

Ack, sorry!

I'll make sure to do that!

Vintage will be awesome! I'm a bit addicted to it!

So lucky you can go out and buy Graphic 45, I have to drive aways but i also can't afford it anymore. But also the papers are so pretty I have trouble cutting them up! lol

Edited to clarify: I'm definitely more of the Something Wicked This Way Comes kinda girl, too. I was just kidding about the severed limbs.

I love the 'something wicked this way comes'! What a perfect phrase to describe what you like!

I have to drive aways too, which is both good and bad. Bad, because it's a pain to get there, but good, because if it were closer, I'd be broke. And, bad because when I do go, I overspend so I don't have to go back soon. 

I hear you on the cutting it up part. It's so hard to do!!

Whew! Thanks for holding a spot for me! My questionnaire is on its way. I can't believe what a feeding frenzy this swap produced! I'd be honoured to be in it, as the rest of the list is like a Who's Who of cool swappers. (Especially if suereal can hang out with us too.)

I'm good for either shrine or storage, though I think shrines offer a lot more room for doin' stuff.

Against my better judgement I sent my signup in lol. The crafting time is long enough right? I guess I'm casting my fate to the wind to see if I made it in time.

In any case, I'd love a shrine. I have a fascination with sideshow characters, especially the bearded lady, what class! Now my mind is reeling with what I might do lol. I think maybe I was looking for ANOTHER way to procrastinate on school work. Nothing like a little pressure hah.

[rackycoo]

There's only one spot left, so get in while you can. cackle and I will be away for a while tonight. Hopefully we'll fill up and will be able to close tonight or early tomorrow.

We'll plan on partnering tomorrow if we are full by then. 

[suereal]

Well now I better join the fake version, as this does seem the place to be

Slightly OT but has anyone read the book "geek love" - about a travelling circus family, whose ringmaster/leader feeds his wife arsenic, etc to create their own freak show. Definitely along the creepy circus vibe!
