That Craft Dragon is pretty cool! I think if I bring one more machine in this house my head would roll.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Still trying to offload my imagine. that's weird because they said it was new for the 2013 CHA.... I remember checking it out at one point and it was about 400 euros or maybe pounds (not too sure) I've heard of people selling their imagines on ebay with success. Good Luck.

Hi all, checking in for the week. This is crafting weekend and I will be working on this and wedding invitations. QOD-I have some third party software crying for a machine to use with it. I still want some Cricut carts like Art Philospohy, Artiste, Outdoor Man and Sophie. The WRMK Envelope Board is cool and you can never have enough copics, ink, embellies etc...  So many cool products so little $$$$$$  Edited by user Friday, March 15, 2013 7:09:06 PM(UTC)

Great altered knife!
QOD: Both of the new card cartridges!! Sentiment stamp sets, VersaFine inks and of course I could always use some more ScorTape :) Copics would be nice (I only have 3)

Use the Art Philosphy very little and never have used my Sophie. I didn't get the outdoor man beencause I have the camping solutions cart and the outdoor critters ones. Kel

I am not sure if I am checking in on time or not but I am here! I hurt my foot/heel and have to stay off it for a week as much as I can so I am going to try to spend that time finishing up this swap! I hope everyone has a great weekend!

JCI I got my silverware order in the mail and I'm excited to get started. Now to see if I can get what is in my head to work.
Scrap2Do I got Baileys pictures what a cutie. I understand about the bows, I worked in a dog grooming shop for years and 1/2 the dogs had their bows out before their parents came. Lol
I looked up the Craft Dragon on the internet and it said £239.99 I have no idea what that transfers into US dollars. Said you had to order from them.

JCI...went to the antique store today and got a piece but going to check another store in the city I work in tomorrow! I have an idea but not quite sure how to execute it! I looked on Pinterest and am going to go to google! QOD: I would redo my whole room with organizers if I had the money!
Have a great week everyone!

Just checking in. Have been working on my idea. Still not sure how it will turn out.
The craft dragon is quite the machine. Wonder if someone will be selling it in the U.S. soon.
Hope everyone will have a great week.

Hello everyone. Checking in for the week. I completed my piece this weekend. Letting everything set before I mail it. I'm a little worried, do not have much experience. I will be sending my piece out on Wednesday. I have the day off from work and will be able to go to Post Office.
Can't wait to see more pics. The knife was sooooo beautiful!

Can't wait to see more pics. The knife was sooooo beautiful! I am sure it will be great. I cannot wait to see pics. No worries, however we all secretly do a little before our partner gets their item. It's natural. You just want them to like it. In any of these swaps, if you have a question just pm me. You can always send me a pic if you need ideas. We are here to help eachother. For these short and sweets most of us have not altered these things before, they are just to get us out of our comfort zones and try somehting new. (And have fun while doing it ) ************************************ Soooo........ I want to post round 4 by the end of the week..... VOTE: Pick one for the next round that you might be interested in 1. Altered Paint Brushes - Alter the flat larger brushes 2. Dollar challenge - Spend $1 max on an item to alter either from the dollar store, garage sale, thrift store, etc. You could do a lot with a $1 (IE Alter a book, a little tray, mousetraps, altered paint brush....the list goes on....be creative) 3. Trash to treasure - upcycle/recycle something you have into something (IE spaghetti jar can turn into a fairy in a bottle)

Got my silverware started today and am hoping to finish it tomorrow while the boys are at daycare. I'm hoping it turns out like I envision it...we'll see!
QOD: I'd probably buy a Vagabond and a bunch of stamps and embellies. Course I always have a hard time paying full price, so I'd eat away at it slowly - one 40% off coupon at a time. Lol!
For next round I vote for paint brushes! (Shocker, huh Kel?)

Waves to Kathy! I am almost finished. I've had to rethink this a couple of times but I finally have what I like as in presentation. Whew!!
My girls have the next 2 weeks off from school so hoping I won't be running around after them so much and I can craft a little more. We'll see!!
