This is where I get to hang my head. I had good intentions, but alas, no work has been done yet. I do have ideas. Oh, the ideas! But little progress to show for those gosh darn gooder 'n you would expect ideas. :blink:

I suspect this is another one to come down to the wire for me.....I have the next Wednesday and Thursday and Sunday off. It's crunch time! :weightlifter:

nycfem 06-19-2010 06:54 PM

I'm in the same position, Gemme! I haven't settled on an idea or started doing any work :)

Your work is always awesome, so I wouldn't worry. I think I have a pretty neat idea too, but it involves using a technique that I've never done before so it might not be as successful as I would like.

I forget...how big can I make this sucker? :blink:

nycfem 06-20-2010 01:49 AM

There's no 4 x 6 type rule, but just don't make it very heavy and make it easy for me to mail in the flat priority mail envelopes- not too bulky to fit with others' stuff.

How is everyone's project going? I finally settled on an idea and have my supplies lined up. I'm looking forward to getting things rolling on the weekend hopefully!

I have my supplies in order as well but am having difficulties with a particular method I'd like to use. If I can't get it working by tomorrow, I'll have to regroup and do something else.

To the wire, down to the wire I go....agaaaaiiiin!

My Bad...I have not finished my project from Jake's wrangling. I started it but got carried away with unpacking, rescue and foster dogs, bad weather, and setting up surgeries. I will indeed get it done, and send it out. I am embarrassed by how late I am...

and I am behind of course, on the addictions one, but the idea I have is rather simply and easy to do...I see I only need to make 10 of them?

nycfem 06-23-2010 06:58 PM

Only nine :)
Please send by/close to end of June :)

Mine will be scooting in just under the wire. Okay, maybe *on* the wire. This weekend did not go according to plan. I *am* still working on them, though! :cheesy:

nycfem 06-24-2010 09:18 PM

Whether under the wire, on the wire, or over the wire, I'm sure it'll be Gemmeorific! :hangloose:

nycfem 06-29-2010 07:09 AM

Hey, everybody, thus far I've only received Ami's project, and with June 30th approaching tomorrow, I wonder if it would be helpful for the deadline to be extended to July 15th? :)
Let me know if this sounds good! Thanks, Jennifer

First...I'm so sorry I've been the pokey little puppy!!!!

I'm working on mine ~ pretty close to being finished....personally, I don't need THAT long...but maybe to the weekend?

Thanks so much!



nycfem 06-29-2010 08:47 AM

I love pokey little puppies :dog:

Like Diva said, that long is not necessary, I think.

I was going to finish up and send them out yesterday but I got called in for a 14 hour long day and didn't quite make it since I was at work before the PO opened up and left work waaaaaaay after they closed. :weightlifter:

The weekend sounds lovely although I hope to have mine out on the 30th, so technically not too late. :)

nycfem 06-29-2010 11:29 AM

Great, thanks Gemme!

I would love to have the weekend to finish up and get them in the mail on Monday!

Gemme 06-30-2010 12:31 AM

Apparently, my job is trying to kill me. :blink:

I'll get them in the mail sometime around when pure will.

Pixie's addictions' projects have been received, and they are beautiful paintings made special for each of us!!! Also a very creative idea! Thus far, I have Ami's projects and Pixie's, and I will continue to post as I receive them :)

I am very sorry, Jennifer. I tried to get to the PO before they closed on Friday, but I missed them. With the holiday, it looks like they won't go out until Tuesday. :(

nycfem 07-04-2010 10:31 AM

Hey, Gemme, that's no problem. I'll look forward to seeing them! Happy 4th! Jennifer

Oh my stars...


The trees are shedding their bark in BIG sheets..

I want to wet them down to make them flexable and then write things on them....

Oh.. that's a cool idea as well..

I like the thought of writing on them so when they get wet, the words all slid off..

Temporary art.. love it...

That would piss me off. Doing all that work, getting it just so and then...swish...all gone. Yeah. I'd only do it once.

femmebaker 07-06-2010 12:18 PM

If the 15th is really okay, then I can manage. I've been a crazed baker, a pathetic sicky, and a sufferer of mini existential crises, but this weekend I'm free! I'm glad I don't have to be a loser begging forgiveness!

nycfem 07-06-2010 12:20 PM

The 15th is totally alright! I've only received two so far, so no worries :)

Well, this is a big relief to me. I can't believe that I haven't managed to get these finished yet. I was off work for four days and thought I would have them done with time to spare; but I didn't work on them at all.

My little Dakota is deathly ill, so sick in fact that I took her into the vet on Friday night prepared to have her put to sleep, after having spent the day watching her condition decline. When we got to the vet though, she perked up and made it clear that she wasn't ready to go just yet. So, we went back home and she had permission from the doctor to eat as many Oreo cookies as she wanted (which turned out to be 22). We somehow made it though the weekend, but she took another turn for the worse yesterday (she wouldn't eat anything, including cookies) and we were back at the vet's. He gave her another shot to try and stimulate her appetite and said we should give it till Thursday to see if we can get her eating again.

So, I have been on an emotional roller coaster. I haven't been able to focus on anything but her.

But, I am going to work on these projects, I promise. I really do love the theme.
