Two....
One Each. she is really good at these things. she is neat, has those stamps and papers for card making totally filed and in order and she is charming and sweet when she helps me too.

Tommi 02-19-2014 08:38 PM

EUREKA...I found them..
After whining to kaijira again..., she said ...did you check your backpacks, etc. Well, I had not checked my briefcase..since I retired ya know.:cigar2:..

There they are, and they will be in the mail tomorrow to each of you, along with a belated valentine package to you once known by another name.

They are missing. Somewhere between here and there (one house or another). They ARE absolutely adorable.
Our daily search has not found them YET, thus, your return address is also with them.

My hopes are to research the areas where we saw them, and then mail them individually.

Guilty look.....:mohawk:

PS.Update. I have not had a response from someone on the list, (still hoping to find the above cutest cards and includ if and when received) and one of the listee's dropped out.

Here it is!

For many of us, it’s been a long hard and very cold winter.

Take your favorite quote, song, or idea, and put it into an art form.

Size: 8 ½ by 5 ½ (this would be a half sheet of cardstock, or a half piece of copier paper)

Somewhere on this (can be the back) have the quote, song or idea written down.

Have fun!

These will need to be sent so I have them by March 21st. Please include $3-$5 for postage.

As many people may sign up as want to.

I would like everyone to make one extra, to send to Medusa and Jack for all the hard work they put into this space where we come together and form lasting friendships. <3

I will PM each participant my snail mail address on the sign up deadline which is Feb. 23rd.




(add the next number if you need to!)

May I be number 13? I would like to participate in this creative round.

Happy Belated Valentine's Day.
 
The Belated Bèsame* Lost and Found Valentine are in today's mail.
Bèsame*, accept my apology and your package is en route this AM.

The B.*extra's will go to the Military with another round of mail today too.

I just want to take a little moment to say a big thank-you to all the "wranglers" out there. It's one thing for me to get my project in on time and quite another to ride herd on everyone else's as well. Even when things don't go as smoothly as planned (no good deed goes unpunished and all that) I very much appreciate all the time y'all put into organizing things!

I thank you soooooo much Tommi!!! I'm feeling the love now :heartbeat:

P.s.....every one bee careful when you open them.


ahk 02-20-2014 03:32 PM

So I have a question/s about the swap -- Do we have to do 13+ half sheets or just 1 and it will just be swapped with another folk? I understand we need to make an extra for M/J (no clarity on that). And does it have to be that large?? Could we have something like 5x7 or 4x6??

Thanks.

nycfem 02-20-2014 04:49 PM

Bumping the original post. ahk, it looks like we send nanners one for each person on the list and one extra for M&J.

Here it is!

For many of us, it’s been a long hard and very cold winter. I’m trying to make myself happy by thinking about spring and renewal of life, new beginnings and getting inspired to grow in many ways. The theme of this project is about just that! What inspires you, brings you back to life after a low point, what renews you, makes you grow?

Take your favorite quote, song, or idea, and put it into an art form.

Size: 8 ½ by 5 ½ (this would be a half sheet of cardstock, or a half piece of copier paper)

Somewhere on this (can be the back) have the quote, song or idea written down.

ahk, Tommi is correct, we will be making one for each person participating plus an extra one for Medusa & Jack. I am going to say this about the size, because there is a chance someone has started this already, I will keep it the same. However, if anyone wants to make them 5 X 7 because it will work better for your art, I will accept it! This is all about having fun!

Tommi, so glad you found the missing Valentines! I look forward to getting mine!

Thanks for the clarification. and to NYCFEM too! But since, there is not a limit on how many folks are signing up, I'm just going to have to back out on this project. Maybe next time when its a smaller group or a smaller project.

Sorry--I'm out, too. I misunderstood the rules as well and just can't make 13+ pieces of that size.

Hopefully next time, and enjoy everyone.

ahk and CCB, I am so sorry you're out...but it is a lesson I'm learning on my first wrangling, and I agree with you that the size of the group might have been better off a limited number. Next time. I don't feel I can change that at this point since thre are 2 more days to sign up and I feel the need to stick to my word in case there was any other BFP artists thinking about participating. If no one else signs up and you choose to come back, it's OK. Thanks for the lesson!

Thanks Gemme! I think that was my fault when I redid the list when I took my name off. Sorry Ts_kaijira. :)

nycfem 02-23-2014 05:14 PM

"stephfordfemme" should be "stepfordfemme

I got my valentine's! All I can say is, we got talent here!

Thank you Tommi for your efforts. My Valentine's day has turned into a week plus!

Onto the spring project. I'm ending up making 14 to include some friends. Can I just say, there will be Inchies involved...like 126 of them. I'm busy ! But nothing else I'd rather do :) ( well...you know ;). )

Tommi 02-26-2014 09:45 AM

Happy Belated Valentine's Day.
 
Yeah. Glad to know you got the smiles and hearts from across the miles. :bunchflowers:

Mee too . looking forward to this next one wrangled by the nanners.
:pile: 126 inchies....WOW....

Good idea about making extras. Once you are into it, it becomes more fun, and each one seems to get better. I have the quote I want to share, now about creating it on something that will support my it.:mohawk:

:thinking:

It's a piece of art made on a 1 X 1 inch square. Similar to the idea of an Artist Trading Card, but scaled down.

I wrangled an inchie swap a little while ago and you would be surprised what you can do within an inch!!! Everyone's ideas were amazing.

But 126 of them? Holy shit. I don't know how you guys do it sometimes! Everything takes me forever, which sometimes makes it difficult to sign up for projects.

nanners 03-09-2014 12:36 PM

A Spring like Day!
 
It is 40 degrees (yes, above zero!) in Minnesota and the sun has been peeking out from under the clouds!

How are the projects coming along? You have about a week and a few days to get them in the mail to me along with $3-$5 dollars to defray postage costs...I need them by the 21st!

I hope you're all having fun doing them, I am starting mine now that I have all the supplies I needed!

amiyesiam 03-09-2014 05:02 PM

I am almost done!

Bèsame* 03-09-2014 06:22 PM

mine are finished and in the envelope, ready to go to the mailbox:)

nycfem 03-09-2014 06:24 PM

Hey there, Nanners, I mailed mine yesterday. I had so much fun with this project. Funny enough, it was really cool to try a very specific different size than I am used to! Thanks again. If you don't mind, please leave me a note on my visitor messages when you receive my package. xoxo, Jennifer

Tommi 03-09-2014 10:35 PM

1/2Way there
 
I am sitting idly by watching kaijira''s creative process as she creates beautiful " quotes". Craft table all organized and supplies at her ready.

I am playing on my iPad, doing my daily Lumosity challenges (brain games) and playing Scrabble . Cuz, I forgot my quote :)

deb0670 03-10-2014 12:34 AM

Payday is coming soon so i can get the supplies needed. Will have them to you asap!

Gemme 03-10-2014 05:21 AM

I had a slow start and change of direction, but things are going well now. I look forward to seeing what everyone does!

Soft*Silver 03-10-2014 04:19 PM

half way done with half of them...working on them has been relaxing and joyful..

nanners 03-10-2014 06:28 PM

Wheeee!
 
nycfem, I got yours today! They are beautiful! (f)

I can't wait to see everyone else's! I guess I better get hustling now that I have my idea, quote and all the supplies! :hangloose:

Tommi 03-16-2014 05:47 PM

Almost there
 
Creative spurts. :byebye:


Almost there. :artist:


In the mail by Tuesday at the latest. :mohawk:

deb0670 03-16-2014 05:58 PM

Not even started yet, however.. i get to get the supplies in the next couple days and get really super busy and get them sent!
So Sorry for the delay!!!!

Bèsame* 03-16-2014 08:10 PM

Mine are on the way:)

nanners 03-17-2014 05:54 AM

Good to hear people checking in here and letting me know where they are...I'm allowing a few extra days for people, but definitely will be mailing out the packages for everyone to see other's artwork by the 29th, so everyone should be able to see everyone else's by the next weekend. :cheesy: :cheer:
