Ffrogg--I joined that swap as well!  I might have to send early just so I have some pictures to post!

katara--what a cute diaper cake!  I just think those things are a good way to get a new mom started with some necessities!

My partner received her art piece in the 4x6 swap!

Oh wow, that is so pretty, always!  What a lucky partner!

I have a few projects to share, which are some swap packages my partner's have received in the OWS round 82 swap:

To mama24boyz for her daughter's bday party (which is such a cute rainbow theme!):


I made her 2 of these rainbow felt bunting


I also had so much felt on hand, that I decided to make up this ruffled felt garland as an extra.


I also have a box full of curly ribbons that I made up last year, so I figured I'd also throw in a cute little hair accessory for her, too!  ^_^

To MollyGirl:



A due date shirt that MollyGirl had found on etsy and that I recreated for her.  I made the image in word, and then the design was freezer paper stenciled onto the shirt. 

To phoenixfiredesigns:




Shirts!  Both were done using the freezer paper stencil method, but I used discharge paste instead of fabric paint this time.  For those of you unfamiliar with discharge paste, its something you dab on and then iron and it lifts the color of the shirt out (similar to bleach, but heat activates it and its so much easier to control).

I also have all my ATCs for April's ATC swap to show you all, but instead of posting all of those here, I will give you the link to their thread.  I made these between 4/1/12 to 5/13/12.  http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=408876.0

I love rainbow stuff!  The ruffles bunting is a cute idea!  I can see a lot of applications for anything rainbow or ruffled!

Your stencilling work is also very nice...I think the due date shirt is adorable!

And I love the bunting so much that it's all going above daysies crib after her birthday!!!  I love those shirts too, the due date one is such an adorable idea!

Love the diaper cake, the rainbow bunting, and the tees!

And the color in that art piece is so lovely. It looks like there might be some texture in there? Anyway, I love it.

We had our monster birthday party this weekend!  Here are some of the hand-made highlights.

Monster Headbands:



Make a monster craft tub:



Googly eye hugs:



Mike and Sulley with the "Scary B-day" banner (Mike doubled as pin the eye on the monster monster and the headbands doubled as blindfolds):



"Sushi" PB&J and Pizza (from Harry Hausen's):



Mike Cake:



These last two I did not make, but I have to share them because they came out sooo great!

Fruit monster (made by my Father in law):



And candy sushi made my my good friend (amazing, right?!):



We had a great day! And I got a few more projects down.

Looks like a party that is fun for adults and kids!  I love the watermelon monster...and the sushi candy is awesome...even the googly eyes on the drink bottles are fun---you did a wonderful job making so many things...
