Hi Rebecca, sending you a pm with my addie. Waving to old friends and hopefully new ones too.

Who you callin' OLD???

Sorry to hear, I hope you get to feeling better. So far, the flu bug has missed out house which I'm glad because I hate being sick. Worse of all I hate it when my husband's sick...such a baby!

[quote]I am going to work on getting a video up. Fingers crossed - you can all laugh. Last night I started to prepare a sample and a friend came over. Then today my son, non-date, and I went to a place called Slappy Cakes for breakfast (AWESOME) then we went and saw Hansel and Gretel. Just got home. THe pancake place was awesome. YOu order the batter, mix ins, and toppings then you make your own - there is griddle built into every table. It was the best pancake batter ever - I had sweet potato. Mmmmmmmm [quote]

sweet potato pancakes.. when are you going to learn vegetables and pancakes don't go together for breakfast..

Robin if dh wants to take it apart.. let him.. because then if you have trouble getting it back together then it is his to do..

They put a message on FB yesterday that they were doing maintenance. I tried a couple times but it wouldn't load at all (I use use FireFox) finally got in late afternoonish

Since the maintenance was done yesterday pics are all links and none will open for me anymore. Anyone else having this problem?

I get the little red X!!!!!!!

Every time they do maintenance, something gets screwed up

This is certainly a new challenge for me...it will be fun I am sure...
I have to get to bd now as it is 1:40 AM and I am already fighting an infection so I need to rest...I will check back in the AM.
night All !!

Ladies, sorry I didn't get a video up this weekend.


Here are some ideas for you all to get started.

You can either unassemble the trap completely to decorate or just pull off the parts you don't need and decorate around the remaining "holder" if you are worried about reassembling.


If you find the surface too small to work with - you can a rat trap (be care full with the "holder" as it is much stronger). Add a piece of chipboard to the top (I made a sample one that I will post later that I used a top note die with chipboard - decorated it and added it to the top of the trap, then put on the hardware. Or you can decorate a surface such as chipboard and add the trap to that. If you go back to my previous post where I put a ton of examples, there is a G45 one that will give you some inspiration. I am sure there are other ideas, but these are just a few. post #17

Barb, I will look fo rmy answers. I thought I posted them anyway


1. Do you have purpose you would like the item made for (Ie... messages, photos, recipes - etc)
Messages/Notes
2. Do you have a theme/style/colors you prefer (Keep in mind this a no cost/low cost swap and not everyone has the same type of stash) - so maybe give a couple of suggestions.
3. Is there anything you don't like? (example colors, style)

I will answer 2 and 3 together - I will like anything but pink and cutesy. I tend to lean towards g45 and timmy styles, but I am pretty good with it all unless there is the dreaded PINK. Lol

Or you could do what I'm doing, but I can't tell you, 'cuz it's a surprise...

Hi to all the mousetrap ladies~ You all are keeping me laughing till my sides hurt! I love this group. So lively!

Big waves to my partner Melody(artpaperfiber)~ Hope you're having a great Monday! I'm going to be getting started on this one before the end of the week...if you have any last minute requests please let me know! Thanks so much.

Have a great week, ladies

That is good that you exchanged information and will communicate via pm. Well I do hope you do find time to still come chat; however, just keep in mind my rule on posting even just a quick - JCI on the thread.

Post at least once per week (Week starts Monday - Ends Sunday for posting purposes)
Miss 1 check - in ; request is posted on main thread for those who have not checked in to please do so.
Miss 2 check-ins - will be removed that following monday from swap.

This makes it easier than having to chase people down to remind them to post on the thread.


You guys are so fun...all your posts are cracking me up - COB did you get your prize or did I send to the wrong city again???? LOL



For those using a rat trap keep in mind the spring is stronger than the mouse ones, so becareful when altering.


Thanks, K

Reminder- please check in with your partner this week and exchange contact information. If you haven't heard from your partner by Wednesday, please let me know.

Please answer questions if you haven't done so yet.

I have gone through the posts, and I just need smllbug to check in.

Thanks,

K

how funny - love those pocket watches. so glad you got them.
