Impossible to choose just one! lol
But the 2 page LO for chefkimmo regarding "a good lookin' guy in wranglers" always comes to mind first! I just knew it would put a huge smile on her face! kimmo gets my vote for this also.. doing her outhouse was really fun.. she sure likes those jeans. hopefully she will come back and swap with us soon.. need a reason to go and look at the jeans again.. silverware would be fun.. terri

I vote for silverware too. I've been wanting to do that for a while! QOD: I had a lot of fun creating a new copics storage for myself this weekend. I'll attach a before and after picture of the box I altered and the inside for the storage. I love the grungyness of the altered box! Edited by user Tuesday, February 12, 2013 8:52:56 PM(UTC)

I finished my trap last night, so I plan on mailing out on Saturday. Kim, that copic storage is awesome! Just awesome! I have several sizes of that type of box here....I need to make the same for myself! So much handier and quicker to find your colors! Does your blog give out measurements of what size that box is? And what the plastic framing is? You just amaze me with your grungework! Who would ever guess it was a pretty floral box to start with! lol Edited by user Wednesday, February 13, 2013 6:36:52 AM(UTC)

JCI-Cricut Junky thanks for the reply to my question! I have to tell you ladies that if it weren't for the swaps I would not be on this board at all. You are all so nice and helpful with teaching us things and being so supportive! I will have my swap ready to mail on Tuesday...just cause Monday is a holiday and their is no mail! Jean

Hello all! I'm hoping to get my trap done this weekend. Oddly enough DH and I actually have some time off together so he can watch the kids while I craft. When I try to craft when it's just me and the kids I get all sorts of "help" or requests to do Little Dude's projects... Is it sad that when we found our new daycare (starting next month!) and she requires 3 days/week my first thought (after the shock of 3 days without my babies wore off) was "Holy crap. I can actually get some stuff done around the house!!" On that note, my vote is for silverware next month.

I don't know if I'll be playing next Round, but if I did/do my vote would also be for silverware, although I have no clue what I'd do with it...

I will find some cool links for ideas. I think it was scrappy dew or maybe it was you who used a fork on block for a photo holder. it was cool. I finally went in for my arm. Got a shot.  Hoping it feels better soon. Need to get back to crafting...having withdrawals. K

I have trouble seeing pictures too. Some show up, some don't. Go figure!
I got to work on Tanya's trap yesterday. Need a few more things and it will be ready to mail. Hopefully this I can sit down this weekend and work on it. :)

TVRKLadd hope you have a good week too
Jean - don't you wish that they would stop tinkering with thing that are not broken.
COB - Please post.
Cindy sounds like an awesome deal.

Here's the altered project Scrappydew made for me utilizing a fork. Creative photo holder or I just left the one she put in it there to accentuate the style of the piece.

I'm still here....been pretty busy at work and home.  I'm also trying to get my new business going...became a Partylite consultant (www.partylite.biz/robingoens), and yes, I still do Stampin' Up. I needed to supplement the loss of income from the increase in social security deduction...mine and DH's combined take-home dropped $200 per month because of that change. I'm going to be working on my mousetrap this weekend. Going to Evansville to volunteer at the Crop for the Cure. (I'm attending the one in March, but volunteer for the one in Feb.)
