Smudgy Antics–Anything Goes

Hello!  I don’t have a ton of time to play with challenges, so I love it when there’s an anything goes challenge!  That’s the theme right now at Smudgy Antics, so I decided to link up the ATCs I made for the November ATC swap on the Smeared and Smudged forum.

I used one of my favorite grumpies from Smeared Ink to make these.  All of the grumpies are mounted on wobbles.

Thanks for looking!

So Very Far Behind

If you hadn’t noticed, I haven’t been blogging much lately.  I haven’t been doing a lot of crafting lately.  I realized recently that I didn’t share pictures of the ATCs I received from the August Blissfull swap, so I thought I’d do that now, before I forget again.

Here are the ones I sent…

And here are the ones I received…

I especially love the Red Riding Hood one.

Thanks for looking!  I’ll be back soon with my belated blog anniversary giveaway.

July Blissfull ATC Swap

Hi!  Today I’m here to show you the ATCs I received and sent for the July Blissfull ATC Swap. 

I was partnered with the lovely Kamali.  Here’s what I received…

Isn’t that completely awesome?  The three ATCs fit together to make one picture!  I love it!

Here are the ATCs I sent…

my images were from Smeared Ink and The Graphics Fairy

If you hadn’t guessed yet, the theme for our swap was mermaids, lol.

Thank you, Kamali!  It was a lot of fun swapping with you!

SBS Tumblin’ Buddy Blog Hop!

Hi!  Today you should have arrived here from Tina’s blog.  If not, you may want to go back to the beginning at the Simply Betty Blog to start this fabulous hop! 

So, here a little while back a bunch of us from the SBS Facebook group did a tumbler swap.  We bought a tumbler and then we filled it with crafty goodies, candy, or whatever else we felt like, and then we sent it to our assigned swap partner.  It was a lot of fun!  I was partnered up with the super awesome Christina!  And she sent me the most amazing stuff!  Wanna see?

This is the whole lot, and then I’ll show you some close ups…

Wonder Woman was my hero when I was a little girl.  I wanted to be her.  So you can imagine how thrilled I was when I saw my tumbler!

Check out all these awesome goodies!

Here’s a close up of the tiny brads.  They are so cute!

And she knew that I’m a huge Doctor Who fan, so she included these, too!  Don’t Blink.

And here is the gorgeous card she included in the box…

I just loved all of the awesome stuff she sent me!  Thank you so much Christina!!

Thanks for looking at all of my goodies!  Your next stop on the hop is my sweet friend Kelli!

Here’s the full hop list, in case you need it.

April Blissfull ATC Swap

Hello.  Just popping in to show you the ATC I sent and the one I received for the month of April from the Blissfull ATC Swap.  The theme was Springtime in Paris.

Thanks for looking!

Some Sent Swaps

Here are some things I sent out for swaps in March.

This ATC was for the March Blissfull ATC Swap.  The frame stamp and the background dress form stamp are from The Girls’ Paperie.

And this one was for the March Blissfull WTA winner.  Owl image was one I found on wikimedia commons.

And these were for the March Smeared and Smudged ATC swap.  The tree stamp is from Taylored Expressions, and the bird stamp is from Character Constructions.

February Blissfull Swap

Just wanted to take a moment to share pictures of the ATC’s from this month’s Blissfull ATC Swap.  The theme was “It’s a mad, mad, Alice in Wonderland World”.  My swap partner was Debbie Reed, and she was such a sweet swap partner to have.:)  Thank you for everything, Debbie!

Here’s the awesome ATC that Debbie sent to me.

And here is the ATC that I sent to her.

Some Swap Pictures

Hello.  I just wanted to share a couple of pictures from the ATC swap I participated in this month over at Blissfull ATC Swap.  The theme was The World of Jane Austen.  So up my alley! 

Here is the ATC I created for my partner…

I used an image from Pride and Prejudice, since that’s my favorite Austen book.:)

And I couldn’t just send one little lonely ATC in the mail, so I made a few pins to send to my partner, too.

My partner was the lovely Karen, from Karen’s Monday Musings.  She made the most gorgeous ATC for me!!

Isn’t it amazing?  She also sent me a few extra goodies.

Thank you so much, Karen!:) 

Thanks for looking!
