[nycfem]

I am mailing my project out today. I was initially intimidated by it but wow I got so into it. I really enjoyed speaking with soft silver to hear more about her visions, and to really try and focus in on that. Very meaningful project!

I got your nycfem!
Great job! I, too was intimidated but once I got rolling I really got into it too! I hope you like the one I made for you!

I'm excited to see SoftSilvers!

Final due date is coming up fast. Feb 7th!

[nanners]

Is anyone brewing up ideas for our next project?
Who would like to wrangle?
If no one has anything I have an idea, but I want to give others a chance to wrangle!

[Soft*Silver]

I am sending mine out tomorrow!!!

[Soft*Silver]

final due date isn’t the 7th. It’s the 26th

“ rojects are due to me by Febuary 26th. You have a week grace period but after that, (March 4th) your project is crumpled up and batted around by my cats and you don't get your package of projects that others made you. You also won't be able to participate again for 4 months.”

Now, I’m really confused because there’s also this information…
Truthfully, I thought the final date was the 14th

OOPS! You are correct! This is the correct one. Final due date is 2/14.
I’m sorry for the confusion!

My package is out and Nanners should get it on Thursday. I really enjoyed this project so thank you everybody and thank you, especially manners for wrangling this

[Soft*Silver]

Well, what is it??? I’m itching to do a new one!

Thanks SoftSilver! I'm looking forward to seeing your work.
If yours comes on Thursday I can get them all sent out next Monday.

OK, so I love looking at new postage stamps when I go to the post office and I always think I could create one that would be awesome. My creative mind gets flowing and..... the new project (if everyone wants to try this) could be to make our own postage stamps.

1. Does anyone want to try this?
2. What would you like the paramters to be? (I'm thinking much larger than a normal postage stamp, because some of us would have a very difficult time doing something that tiny. My eyes aren't what they used to be!)
3. Should do 1 or a series of 4 on same page?
4. Feel free to make any suggestions, comments, or tell me I'm crazy...LOL!

And by the way, has anyone heard from Gemme? She hasn't been on here since 1-11-24 and I'm worried about her.

Hey nan! I love this idea, too! I am thinking maybe something like 6 x 8 OR 5x7.....maybe 3 stamps on either size? I THINK that might be big enough for me to do...LOL.

My .02 cents...

Can't wait to get the vision board back!

[nycfem]

What a great idea! I would also like the option for participants to be able to create inch sized stamps, or twinchie size stamps in case we want them to be a bit more akin to real stamps. Just as an option for those who choose.

[nanners]

First, I have everyone's vision boards, and I'll be mailing them out tomorrow.

Second, I'm getting together my thoughts on the postage stamp project and I hope everyone is excited about it. I hope to post a sign up by Tuesday.

nycfem, yes, I'm going to allow everyone to make their own decision about what size to make them. Inchie or twinchie size up to 5X7...Clay is that big enough for you to deal with?? I can increase the size if you need me to.
