GIRRRRLLLL, that thing went to the Goodwill like 16 years ago. I think it was the single thing that set off my Christmas-sweater aversion. To this day, I get hives and anxiety when exposed to Christmas sweaters. THIS IS THE EXACT TEDDY BEAR APPLIQUE THAT WAS ON THE FRONT OF THE SWEATSHIRT!!!!!!!! NOT KIDDING!!!

My stepsister only gets me gifts because my stepmother guilts her into it. Two years ago she found a wine glass at the dollar store that was painted to look like a round santa claus. I don't mind gifts from the dollar store, i'm just saying that so there is a frame of reference as to the quality of painting skills. She put a piece of tissue paper in it, strung some pony beads on a piece of waxed cord, called it a bracelet and put that in there, then put the whole shebang in a box she took from work.
I re-gifted it at a white elephant at work last year. (SO NAUGHTY)

OMG! One year an ex-friend went on and on about how she got me something for my birthday. Our birthdays were only like a week apart and I felt like she was doing it so that I would feel obligated to get her something even though I was broke as shit at the time. I ended up getting her a set of hand-made bath bombs and lotions. When I opened the gift she had been yammering on about, it was a wok. When I took the wok out of the box, out flew a little slip of paper that said "Thank you for ordering from xyz company, here is the free wok we promised you". Don't get me wrong, LOVED the wok but I was definitely .gif "Say What?")

I posted a pic of what I have been working on today. It was mind-numbing but pretty addictive and I have plans to do many more.

Is the base styrofoam?
I love thumbtacks and actually collect interesting ones. Thanks for showing the possibilities of what can be done with them! That is jaw dropping craft magic! Quote:

greetings crafters

update for the crafting record
photo prints adhered to card stock seems to work - time will tell the durability but all signs are good 5x7 prints are better because there is less scrap when cutting down 8x11 sheets of paper to fit |

Does anyone here embroider? I used to about 20 years ago and have forgotten some of the fancier stitches. I found some gorgeous patterns on UrbanThreads and am dying to try them out!!

Going to work on some crafty projects later tonight while I'm on an overseas conference call for work.
I found a great little scan that shows a bunch of easy embroidery stitches: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-82XL6vE3CS...y+Stitches.jpg
