Anyone who did the "postsecret project" I mailed out your packages! :). Can't wait for everyone to enjoy them as much as I have!
Also please PM your address to ahk if you would like for him to send you his card individually.
Thanks, everyone, for participating! Can't wait to wrangle it again next year :)

I got an ART card from Katniss and it is beautiful! That's a shame. I hope that everyone gets her cards. And yes...hobby lobby is homophobic. So sad. I buy toys from there. Rockets! Not anymore.

Yes please.
It's not that I didn't finish, but for whatever reason, both packages that I sent to NYC have not made it to her, but back to my house saying "return to sender" --

Thank you.

How is everyone doing?

I will walk over to the post office this afternoon and see if I have any mail.

Looking forward to seeing everyone's work.

Happy creating everyone.

I am hoping to rejoin this group again. I had to leave last year when I was opening my store. This year, I am moving the store, lock stock and barrel, AND I am getting married. Both things are happening on or before July 14th. Once its all over, I will need some creative outlets. I am aching for some projects!

By the way, the lovely sign you all made for the store.."you are so beautiful" is traveling with me. We havent decided where it will go up but its going up! My customers have even asked me not to forget it!

sis 07-05-2013 01:36 PM

AND ........

candy_coated_bitch 07-05-2013 05:46 PM

Yep, the deadline to mail them out is the 11th of this month. Still some time to go, procrastinator. :)

Hi everyone,

ugh! I do not like doing this but I have no choice. Life has really gotten in the way of this project for me.

I am going to have to bow out at this time.

I've got only four cards made thus far and there is so much crazy going on for me right now that I just won't be able to complete the rest in time.

Please forgive me and pardon any inconvenience this has caused. I really hate backing out of things I have given my word on doing. Besides, I was having a lot of fun with it.

nycfem 07-07-2013 01:15 PM

Hey, Bleu,

While everyone talks at the beginning about getting them in on time, you were one of three people at most who got the last project in on time! :D I didn't get people's cards for up to three months after the due date (and I'm not just talking a few on the list!). So while I certainly don't advocate for that long a delay, this is a pretty forgiving group when it comes to things being on time. Since you've already made 4 (and a few of us have already made you yours), I hope you will think about staying in the project. Your art is always a pleasure. Would you consider continuing to participate and just taking a few extra weeks?

Jennifer

Bleu, if you agree to stay in, I won't feel so bad, because at this point I was ready to say the same thing you did, but I felt really guilty about it. I don't think min ewill be 3 months late, but I do think they might end up being a month to 6 weeks late. Somehow "Life" snuck up on me...and I've done some scrambling to make money for my trip to the reunion...thus working more than 10 hours days and getting to the point of exhaustion. I know it will be worth it in September, but i also feel like I'm letting a group of friends here down. I am sorry, but mine will be late.


candy_coated_bitch 07-07-2013 04:06 PM

Bleu, I won't mind if your ACTs are late, either. Things have been really, REALLY stressful for me right now. And while I am pretty certain mine will go out on time for this project--I have a couple other outstanding projects. I owe people letters, and pictures, and journal entries. Life does get in the way sometimes. *shrug.

I'm not sure how others feel. I am fairly patient. I would also encourage you to participate in any way you can. (((Bleu))))

sis 07-07-2013 04:24 PM

Okay, first off, I am a forgiving person. And, I totally understand that life does get in the way. However, I joined this project based on the date of commitment due to my being able to be in Canada to send and receive said project. I trust the Canadian and American postal system; I do not trust the Chinese postal system. Every package that is sent into China is inspected - anything on the ATCs that are deemed inappropriate will result in the entire package being destroyed. Is there a possibility that there could be some consideration given to the situation I am in? Thoughts?

On a side note, yes, I have participated in ONE project several years ago ..... I did received the Altoid tin and I did contact the sender directly to insure there would be nothing untoward on the tin. The tin arrived in China Post packaging as it had been inspected - some of the décor needed to be reattached due to the inspection.
