I was afraid that maybe something got damaged when they posted that they left a message.. ours only does that if there is something wrong with the package and we have to go and pick it up.

Love all the tilda coloring.. some day I am going to get it right.. just have to take the time to practice..

Great job Terri on each item! Smart thinking to make the blocks for year round use too!

I love that blue snowman paper on the canvas! Just cute paper!

The diecut on the altered spool is Tim Holtz. I use that die ALL the time - I love it!

Thanks ladies for the comments.

The TH die is one of my favorites and I have been wanting it forever and so I used this swap as an excuse to get it and I have already used it a lot. .. The blocks are just scrap wood that my dh cuts for me and then I alter.. It was fun coming up with the words that would match in size with the Let it Snow, so then the Live, Laugh Love come to me and I was not sure about the colors so I just went with the good old standby..

The altered spool was something I have just done in Kellys short and sweet swap. not the same spool.. but was on the same thinking line. I had that paper for a while and was so wanting to use it but not cut it up so this worked out great.

Glad you liked it.

Rebecca which pictures are you wanting to look at bigger. I can e mail them if you send me your e mail. Also now that Ali has her package I will be putting them on my blog.. today.

Thanks
Terri

Terri, I'm going to have to get the snowman die to add to my collection..LOL

DH saw the blocks and he has a pile of them from building the house..so now I'll have a stash of them. I hadn't thought of using wood blocks to alter. He loved what you created. He can't seem to wait as he knows when a box of swap goodies are coming. He just asked the other day when is the next swap..LOL

Ali

So this completes this swap! Hooray! All pkgs. mailed on time and now received. I think Cammi is only one who hasn't been able to post pictures. So that's pretty good considering all the issues with picture posting lately. And hopefully she will post what she received from Evelyn real soon.

Edited to say that Bridgette has not posted either.

Thank you to all of you for playing along and making this swap pretty much stress free!

Please continue to communicate often in your future swaps as it truly does make for a much more fun, stress-free swap for the hostess and all participants involved.

FYI: I don't think I will post the next round any time soon. Many that join this swap also are joining Kelley's monthly swaps and/or are in the SS Spring Poem swap...so I'd like to allow some time for us all to concentrate on those swaps before teasing you with the next theme for this swap!

Again, thank you all for a successful swap!

Very disappointed that my partner never posted pics nor did she ever acknowledge receipt of the things that I made for her.

I am SOO SOOO Sorry, I went to a scrap retreat over the weekend and was gone all day Sunday and recouped yesterday. I'm Just SO exhausted. (going to the Dr next week, hopefully get some answers)
ANYWAY Here are the Pics of what I received.


You must know I NEVER know what to cook, a New cook book is going to be so helpful,
love the apron and dish clothes too. they are y favorite type as well

A few flowers fell off, I'll get them back on. What a cute box!

These are Very cute, They will be very handy!

The Tags are Beautiful. Thanks Rebecca for EVERYTHING... I'm sorry it took so long to post.
I'm not sure when my box came, Friday or Saturday since I was gone.

It's fine. I was just wondering if we had lost you for good. Some of the tags I received in another swap. I only made the butterfly one! I'm happy that you liked everything. I loved creating everything for you ...hope you feel better soon!
