[cloud_berry]

I've been lurking and I'm considering joining this swap next month (provided there is one??)!! Making a list now It just looks so much fun and I am taking mental notes of what I could make for everyone!

Hi cloud_berry! Please do join, this is one of my all time fav. swaps.

The plan is to run this swap through November.

WOOOOT!!! Four more months of crafty goodness? YAY! I love the variety of this swap and it's an excellent destash for me Plus...practice makes perfect for somethings. I bound two journals yesterday and they came out PERFECT. No wobbly signatures at all. AND I discovered a secret technique for perfectly smooth paint applications on fabrics---use a "foam roller brush". All thanks to this swap.

I just finished craftaddiction's etched glasses. They turned out fantastic! My husband (who rarely pays attention to my craftiness) said so!

I am behind on posting pictures (again  ) of the goodies that I've received from texscrapper and stelato_escuro. I apologize to both of you!  I started back into my classroom this week. There hasn't been any A/C in my room so I'm completely exhausted by the time I get home in the afternoons.

From stelato_escuro, I received 2 adorable snowmen!


From texscrapper, I received some spa goodies for my daughter, 4 pink cupcake soaps, pink sugar scrub, a cute embroidered fabric basket and an embroidered hand towel.


AND arriving in today's mail, I received from Kitty_Anne! A matching wristlet and hair band!


Many thanks to you all! These gifts are wonderful.
