[ThatsWhatSheSaid]

I am *finally* getting around to post pics of all the awesome things I received this round. Y'all are some talented ladies

First up, I received a dinosaur scarf from Onyxnox. One picture shows the dino graphic better, the other shows the scarf color better, but both accurately show that I have done nothing about the wrinkles yet  I can't wait to rock it! Thanks!



Second, I received a batch of delicious vegan baked goods from Wittmert that almost didn't even make it long enough to take pics. She made whoopie pies (which are my favorite dessert treat in the world!) and pumpkin pie granola (which I have always wanted to make but am way too lazy!) Thanks so much!





Last, but not least, I received an owl hoopla and a Wonder Woman pouch from Dessadoll! The craftsman ship on both of these items is so impressive! I don't want to use the WW pouch because I am afraid it could get a spec of dirt on it. Thank you so much! The hoop is a wonderful addition to my growing hoopla wall

Nice packages lately!

Onyxnox, was that a freezer paper stencil? Very nicely done on the dino.
And oh, food! I'm not vegan but I don't mind their food.
And I think Dessadoll is my new hoop-crush.
And crocheted slippers are the best!

Aside: 77F is way too high for December 1st! This next summer is going to be a total bummer, way too hot. But I don't know, maybe the Mayans will be right and the world will end this month? Save me from a super horrendous summer next year...

And sorry it's so late in the day but I finally got December's swap up! Yay! http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=417422.0

I'll probably sit out this month... I need to finish my last november claim and then I have a few things I'd like to try to knit for christmas.

Funny thing, I had never done a hoopla until this pinterest swap!  There is a first time for everything...lol.  Glad everyone has liked what they have gotten from me.  Makes me feel good.  (Though I think everyone on here is too nice to say if they didn't like it....lol)

Joining again in December....not sure if I will send as many packages though.

[Onyxnox]

Yes, that is a freezer paper stencil.  There is a T-rex on either the opposite side, or the other end of the scarf, I don't remember which.  I got some great Craft mags from ThatsWhatSheSaid, but can't find my camera memory card with those pics on it - I wonder if it is under the pile on my craft table.  But I have been devouring them!

But I think I will also sit out December and take a swap hiatus in general.  I need to do some things for Christmas as well, and may rejoin the swapping world after the holidays at some point.

I hear you guys about the swap hiatus. I'm sitting out December too, though I am still in charge and after Christmas I may join if I'm feeling inspired by anyone. I just have so much to do for Christmas! And on top of it my friend wants me to make some belly dancing costumes... so much pressure!

BUT we did get a a winner for our giveaway this month! Sweetyetevil, you should be expecting a package here in a few weeks as soon as we decide what to send you

I received an adorable snowman (who will be going to work with me tomorrow) and a gorgeous stitched journal from szuzu1969 today. The journal is especially lovely with all it's hand stitching and beading. Thanks so much, szuzu1969!

I received the most beautiful package today from Onyxnox. A bracelet and necklace. I was so excited when I opened them up I had to put the bracelet on right away. It is so me and I love that it said happy on it. I needed the pick me up. It is on my wrist as I type. I love the three cords and the resin work is very well done. There is also a little heart charm on the clasp.

I also got the added bonus of a resin pendant necklace. It has a nature theme and is simply irresistible.



 I have wanted some resin work forever! Thanks so much!!!!

[Onyxnox]

LOL - I did not realise when I made it that one of the words exposed on the background of the bracelet was leather - that's kind of funny!  Glad you liked them both!  I really liked how the leaflet pendant turned out.
