Thank you! 😊
 
So, I picked up my mail today from my neighborhood post office.... and the big envelope with everyone's Post Secret cards was in that bundle of mail! :)

Thanks so much to those of you who identified your post card with your member name. It carried deep meaning and I appreciated knowing who put their artistic efforts in their Post Secret post card!

Special mention: Thanks Tommi for your very thoughtful card! I know someone I can send it to and thought it was so incredibly thoughtful of You to include postage on the card.

Georgia, CCB, Nanners and clay, your cards were very nice!

And thank you to others in our exchange for your artistic thoughtfulness. It is much appreciated! :)

Thanks again for the opportunity to sit in on your holiday post card exchange..... May each of you have an memorable season of holidays and an wonderful new year ahead!

Kätzchen

Am I the only one (feel free to say I'm not even if I am :p ) who gets a wee bit too ambitious with these projects?! In my noggin' I hear...

Ohh... this thing is gonna be just awesome... it's gonna play music... and then laser beams are going to shoot out of it ... and it can be an alarm clock ... oh, and it can be a flotation device... and ... and... and...

Or... is that just me?? :blush:

Not just you. Attempting something too ambitious ended up getting me timed out because I panicked and got frozen. I'd give the word of advise to make sure what you're doing is feasible. No laser beams lol.

Well, the clock has already been done so don't worry about that and lasers could blind someone or cause seizures. No no to those.

I, too, get a wee bit ambitious. I just have to remind myself that's it is just art and art is subjective. Even if I think something's gorgeous, the recipient might not and vise versa. I just do what I can with the time, supplies and skills that I have.

Gemme 12-19-2017 07:20 PM

Glitter was already mentioned. Y'all are covered....or not, as the case may be.

Lyte 12-19-2017 08:54 PM

I think the original mention was to not send the Wrangler unconstrained glitter. There's been a request for no glitter, period. Unless I've misunderstood the request. I echoed the late request, however....

If you've aleady started your project and glitter has been used, please do not toss it out and/or start over! Meaning, continue on your merry way! ,) Special requests are welcome but... it just occurred to me... will need to be put forth during the project's planning stage.

If you've not started your twinchie thingies... please refrain from using glitter. My aplogies for any inconvenience. A learning curve can also make for a wicked slip-n-slide! :p

:cigar2:

candy_coated_bitch 12-19-2017 09:09 PM

I'm always confused about using glitter at ALL, or being able to use glitter that is very well sealed and isn't going to get everywhere. I like to use a little glitter but I have the proper sealant. I never use glitter on clay's because it seems to be deathly allergic no matter what lol.

Are we deciding no unsealed glitter, or no glitter at ALL? I just want to be clear. I guess maybe we should say no glitter period so it's no confusion, right? I promise I will not sneak in glitter if that's the consensus.

Lyte 12-19-2017 09:30 PM

The preferred route is no glitter IF someone hasn't started using it. If they have, I don't want anyone starting over. If they have, we ask only that they do what they can so that it will not ... get loose....fly free... escape... for lack of a better way of saying it. ;)

Got it. All's fair in war and glitter.

Lyte 12-21-2017 04:05 PM

Wrangler contact info provided via PM. :fastdraq:

I highly recommend packaging your twinchies well and/or is such a way that the package can not be folded or smooshed. One of our carriers likes to really shove as much as he/she can into the mailbox. When that's not an option he/she will walk the item up to my door step. Thanks! :)

candy_coated_bitch 12-22-2017 07:02 PM

All I have to say about the no glitter rule (I'm not at all bitter) is I am having a vision with lots of rhinestones. I'm gonna be a rhinestone cowgirl. Bang bang.

Lyte 12-23-2017 12:09 PM

This project has provin' a lil more challenging than I expected... conceptually. Yes, love ... but in what form or fashion? It's not called... "that many splendored thing" for nothin'. ;)

I say 'eenie meenie miney mo'.

Besides you have 8 ways to express it.

candy_coated_bitch 12-30-2017 12:55 AM

How's everyone doing with their twinchies? Mine are probably 3/4ths of the way done and I haven't even made a trip to Michael's yet!!! Emphasis on yet. I'm pleased so far though.

Gemme 12-30-2017 06:53 AM

Congrats on your restraint! I'm nowhere near that point but am having fun getting things together.

Of course I'm the one who can't stop at just one!

FireSignFemme 01-01-2018 04:32 AM

Plan in place, know direction this is headed, keeping things simple, most supplies on hand already. Now let's see what happens when throwing caution to the wind, assembly line fashion, I crank these twinchie things out.

candy_coated_bitch 01-02-2018 03:54 PM

I just wanted to say I used a glitter gel pen on each of my twinchies. It's not actually glitter, just a shimmery pen. Hope that's ok. If you notice a hint of shimmer don't panic, it's not glitter.

Lyte 01-02-2018 05:53 PM

We were ... and/or ... are .... polar opposites! No plan... no direction... nothing simple... nothing on hand! lol :|

I think I'm doing this whole thread wrong! :p

Lyte 01-02-2018 05:57 PM

Let me be the first to say ... as Wrangler ... naughty! :fastdraq: lol

I've got a couple sets of those shimmery "glitter" and/or metallic gel type pens ... they're very cool! No worries! :)
