Try Michael's for the future if you can because Hobby Lobby is anti-LGBT. That's awesome going to a craft store for ideas- that always gets me kinda excited! I also tried things for this project that I haven't before. It's good to challenge ourselves and gain a wider repertoire in the process!

Thanks for the insight. I knew Hobby was anti-abortion but didn't know bout the LGBT. Is Michael's pro or neutral? Sadly, damn near everything in TX is anti-everything.
YouTube is a good idea. Next time! Thanks! Quote:

I didn't think the worst of you, stuff happens. So when you speak of everyone thinking the worst of you, that's an incorrect assumption/statement on your part, because I didn't and I'm someone too. |

You are so good to me, J!
And y'all, I got the first package in from Lyte this morning. Holy cronuts, people! These are fantastic! Lyte, you are right; they are bigger than the size requirement but I love the concept!!! You did a great job and I really appreciate taking the size/weight into consideration when sending your postage. You all are going to be so psyched when you get these!!!! They are beautiful and very creative. You did a great job. I'm super excited about seeing everyone's else's ideas as well. |

I'm first?! Woo hoo!!
I screwed the pooch and picked the wrong size?! Yeah... I did... sorry 'bout that. They're not half bad??? *mic drop* lol Thanks Gem! Since you're the mighty Wrangler, you get to choose whichever one you want. Since I don't know everyone I figured I'd let you assign the rest as you think best or let it be random! Quote:

They are great! I'll have to repackage them because I did peek at them all and love the diversity. |

Finished!
This project was definitely a challenge for me. I really wanted to use everything in some way, but ended up not being able to fit two of the items in. I had a couple ideas I wasn't able to execute because I'm not completely unpacked yet and couldn't find what I needed. So, I had to get a little creative. I tried some new things and went out of my comfort zone a bit and ended up with a few I really like and most that are sorta so-so. I will get these in the mail hopefully tomorrow, Gemme.
❤️ & 🎨

Participants
1. Gemme 2. Breathless 3. Soft*Silver 4. nycfem / Jennifer 5. Cara 6. Lyte------received 7. amiyesiam--------received 8. GeorgiaMa'am *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! *insert Eye of the Tiger here |

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!

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. Quote:
