Hi Weagz, looking forward to being partners! I saw your list....looks like we have similar styles. I'll send an email in a day or two.


Jess, fried oreos? Why waste a perfectly good oreo by frying it?

Yo ho ho Marjorie, long time since we've been in the same swap together!

Ho ho ho Rhonda, good to be in another swap with you too!

Hi to my partner Beach Bum!!! Excied to get started now that most of my Christmas things are done! I noticed you are a Copic Instructor, hmmmm and me asking for Promarkers

Hope you and yours are having a great Holiday Season! Does it snow there in KS? I have some friends stationed in Levinworth. Don't know how close you are to there. She does some classes/crops sometimes.

Hope to see your list soon.
Denise

Good morning! I have had such a great weekend. I hate to see it end. Finishing it off with a cookout today! DH makes the best chicken breast on the grill! Haven't had any since the end of summer!

Glad to see partner's making contact. I know some haven't. If that continues to be a problem please let me know and I will remove them and try to find you a replacement. If wishlist aren't completed in the next few days, let me know that too. This was started early so that we had plenty of time to do the shopping for our partner's.

Hello Hope! I hope you are having a great weekend chillin!

Have a blessed sunday!

Good Morning Denise and other Valentine Swappers!

Ahhhh yes, Promarkers..... no judgement here!

Snow... yes, we get snow! Mostly after the first of the year though. Since we live so close to the Oklahoma border, instead of up near Leavinworth, we get a lot of ice too. Your friends are about 3 hours from where we live.

There are some ladies that come from there to a crop that I go to twice a year (there are 180 of us)! Ask her if she goes to Crop a Ganza in Wichita. That's about as far north as I have been. Ganza is a hoot.... We start lining up for signups at 2 am just to make sure we are in! The one in the fall sells out in less than 45 minutes.

I will get my list up soon I promise.

Ronnie.... the beach bum!

Hope you had a great dinner tonight Jess! I love grilled chicken. Yum!

Okay some questions Jess:

1)favorite cricut cartridge?
2)are you mainly a cardmaker?
3)favorite color?
4)favorite candy(other than chocolate)?
5)the online store that you find most of your favorite products is________?

Just a few!

I did have an ok weekend because had to get out and do a little shopping still for Christmas. It was crowded! The wind here in the panhandle of Texas is horrible at times! I felt like I was blown from the car to the mall entrance. I am sure I looked that way too!

Getting ready for kiddos school week and my work week....

Have a great evening everyone~!!!

Thanks Jess for answering the questions!

I love gummy bears too. I am mainly a card maker as I agree they are much quicker. That is where I use my cricut the most, to cut a simple image to add to a card. Thanks for the info on the online shopping-there are so many sites out there so it is nice to hear about some new ones that friends have had success shopping at!

Hey Gals-HL has all their gems/bling all on sale this week for 50% off....

Well Yesterday was my birthday and I definitely feel older ( ) My big Sister was nice enough to make me Dinner and a special cupcake!


1)favorite cricut cartridge? I don't think I've found it yet, Noah's ABC Animals looks interesting though and with 700 characters it would probably speak to the animal lover in me.

2)are you mainly a cardmaker? no, not mainly but I do make them.

3)favorite color? Any hue of B R O W N!!!!!!

4)favorite candy(other than chocolate)? not a big fan of chocolate, I love tootsie roll pops I guess in a way that's chocolate.

5)the online store that you find most of your favorite products is________? I don't really buy online and I can't usually find everything I need at one store, I have a M's, HL and Joanns near me.

Big Waves to my Partner hope you had a great weekend. I've got alot bought for you, just a few things I'm still on the hunt for, but I have plenty of time.

Hitting the road to see my family for the holiday's in a couple of days, So excited, they are only four hours away but It's been quite a while since i've seen them.

Jess, i'm jealous of the three packs, they are 19.99 and 20.99 at some of the HL's here, I wish they had a better variety pack.

Happy Belated Birthday Cricutjunky! I hope you had a great day!

Thats the price of our copics here but its not to bad when you use a coupon. I want all the sets, so I have a ways to go. Well considering I only have 2 sets. I have a ways to go ! I believe I counted 13 sets at my HL!

Big waves to my partner! I hope you had a fantastic day!

Good morning!

Sounds like someone had a very nice bday! Happy day to you CricutJunky.

A big shout-out to my partner Weagz! I was a little nervous about joining swaps again, but I think Wendy and I are going to get along just fine!

I have a busy day of finishing my wrapping, buying cookie ingredients, and cleaning my china cabinet...all of which do not include crafting. :-(

Good morning Hope! Thanks for answering your questions! I have thought of a few questions for you!

Is copic markers something you would like me to keep in mind when shopping for you ?
What type of copic markers do you plan to collect? Sketch, Ciao or both?
What brand of stamps would you like to color?

I hope you have a great day!

JCI I have a couple of items for my partner. Everyone have a great weekend. Sherrie

Baking cookies for the kids' classes. Whew, one more day then vacation!

Hi Jess! Have you ever had one of those days that you wish you could do over?? I think I need to take my own advice and take a chill pill!

answers:
1)yes! I think I am finally catching the wave of Copic love
2)You know I have no idea what the difference is between the two but I am thinking the sketch kind.
3)Okay, I am not as adventurous as you on coloring those pretty little girls(Maggies)! That is some amazing talent! I was thinking simple things like at PTI they have those valentine treat characters(or Christmas or Halloween) -I was thinking about coloring stamps like that! Or flowers....I am such a beginner!!

Tonight is family night with my brother-in-law(and sister-in-law)-a big dinner then some presents to be opened. Then I have to work tomorrow for half a day but then I get take off a half day on Monday. Other than that no big weekend plans.

Have a great weekend Jess and everyone!

Good morning Ladies...

I'm sooo happy I'm now off work until the 2nd of January...wooo hooo. MUCH needed rest! BUT once we go back....there will be no end to the 10 hr days for who knows how long....ughhh...so this maybe my last swap for a while....or at least a SLOW DOWN on doing them.

Sherrie...I hope you are feeling better. Sounds like you have been busy! I'm waiting on an order to come in...HOPE you like the content of it :-)

CricutJunky...Happy Belated Birthday....I hope you had a great one!

Hope...coloring with the copics takes LOTS of practice....I'm still learning them too....and I'm been **Practicing** for over a year or so.....lol. I think it looks ok, then see someone else's work, and think NOT! LOL

Jess....feel better, prayers and hugs are with you. I hope you have most of all your shopping/wrapping done?????
