*Deadline for finished projects to be in my grubby little hands: 6/19/17
*Officially late, and on the naughty list, if not received on/by 6/26/17.
*Completed projects will be mailed out no later than 6/29/17

I received ami's yesterday and they. are. gorgeous. I love your work, ami, and you totally went out of the box on so many of these pieces. What I might do, if you don't mind, is repackage them in larger Ziplocks, as a couple of the bags ripped and don't fit well inside. I also love that you sent back the list of items sent you to as you used them. That's an easy way to let others know what you used and how you used it.

Lyte, I missed that part in your projects. I could be blind. I do need a new prescription and my optometrist said I could be a candidate for eye surgery so I might just be missing it, but I didn't see this part of the project. Let me know where the break down is, please.

Parameters: Total size of each piece is not to exceed 5x7. Smaller is fine. You must use at least 25% of the pieces/items/goodies mailed to you. You may use your own theme or choose the suggested theme of Windows if you are in the mood for a challenge. You MUST show what you used. You can do this by writing it on the back of the piece in addition to your screen name or write it on a separate piece of paper/cardstock/cardboard/etc. Each recipient should have a list of what you used in your piece to them. You are welcome to choose specific pieces for individuals (mark them accordingly, please) otherwise I will choose who gets what.

Excellent work, so far! I am soooo stoked to see what everyone else comes up with. The work in the two packages I've received so far has been so different and creative. Way to go, penpallers!

my projects are all done! I am by no means good at crafting but I enjoy doing things so just treat mine like you would a kid's...just tell me "oh how pretty!" and smile..lol

I did do the best I could.

I ran out of items to use so I had to incorporate some of my own things. I couldnt use everything Gemme sent...just two small things didnt get used. But I was amazed I got so many of the items used! Including the chalk..which I made into a very special "thing"

I have to wait until tuesday (have to wait for hubbie's payday) to mail but I am sending by priority so it will get to gemme just in the nick of time!

this was fun!

No, none of the bags ripped. They were ripped by me on purpose. I didn't have any other bags in the house. Sorry about that. At 54 I just don't worry about this kind of thing anymore. I just don't have the energy to pretend to be normal anymore. And I was not writing what I used when you provided a perfectly lovely list for me to copy! That was a great help.
And thank you for doing this. Total fun.

Lyte 06-15-2017 08:33 PM
Doh! Sorry.. I just noticed your paragraph to me below!

I didn't include a list.of what I used. I didn't think it was required unless one was looking to get credit for using everything. I didn't use everything. ;)

That's how I work too, Soft. No worries on that. I like mixed media because it allows me to be messy and I can always say "I meant for it to look like that" when something doesn't turn out right. ;)

However you get it to me is fine. Just make sure that it's absolutely no later than the 26th. That's the final hard limit can't miss deadline.

I look forward to seeing what you did!

You're welcome. I used the list to make sure each package out to you all got the same materials, so I'm glad you found it useful too. No worries on the bags. Nothing was damaged except one little star fell off but I can adhere that back for you.

It was a requirement of everyone. No one is exempt! That's why I used bold letting and capitalized the MUST. That means I'm serious! You still have time to get it to me. Send me a list of what you can remember using and I can make copies to put in with your packages. Make sure I get it before the 26th.

Soft*Silver 06-16-2017 08:54 AM
is there a next project waiting in the shadows?

nycfem 06-16-2017 09:28 AM
I mailed mine out today just now priority mail. Let the good times roll!

Lyte 06-16-2017 10:42 AM
Well I was just naughty wasn't I?! lol :cigar2:

I'll get you a that list. :)

Not yet. We usually wait until the current project is, at the very least, being ready to send back out to the participants. I've only received 2 of the packages so we're a bit off from that point.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

That is all.

candy_coated_bitch 06-17-2017 02:27 AM
Gemme, would you be willing to post the items sent to everyone? I'm dead curious.

I have no problems with that as everyone has received the package so, sure.

I had 3 mini bags of embellishments (tiny beads, charms and a brad and gold stars), 1 piece of craft tissue paper, 2 embossed tags, 3 mini cupcake liners, 3 butterfly strip stencils, 2 doilies, 2 paper birds, 1 heart sticker, 1 beige cord, 2 rubber bands, 1 length of yarn, 6 stamped images, 1 cotton ball, lengths of tulle, 1 length of gold medallions, 2 wood stencils, 2 pieces of decorative tape, 1/2 of a small washi tape roll, 2 pieces of chalk, 1 ribbon, strips of rhinestones, 9 napkins of varying themes and a lot of miscellaneous papers and cardstock.

Oh, and a partridge in a pear tree.

:cheesy:

Thank you!!! That's quite a creative and eclectic list. I'm sure the finished products will be awesome!

Well, you are just going to have to hold your horses, missy miss.

That's what happens when you stay away. Now, stick around and play more often...that's an order! lol

For the rest of you....

It's looking rough, y'all. I only have 3 in hand and am still waiting on 4. Thanks for the update, Cara! I'll keep an eye out for it. Everyone else's should also already be in the mail in order to mail the final deadline.

Is everyone good? Check in, please.

I will have to overnight mine to you. I'm almost done, but I have been dealing with this tooth. I'll make it, though.

Gemme, I sent mine out today by overnight. You should have it tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks for wrangling this one - it was so much fun!

I MUST have your projects in hand on or before that date or you will not be able to participate in any projects for 6 full months. I look forward to seeing what you've come up with!!!! Everyone's so far has been quite lovely.

Hi Gemme, FedEx says mine was delivered today at 12:13pm. Please let me know when it's in your hands! Thanks!
