Hey, can you believe it? I just finished mine for August! I mean, a record for me to do anything for the month right outta the box! Ok, I may do a bit of a touch of something more, but I doubt I have more than 5 more minutes, maybe 10, on them, then package and send! Hee hee!
And I even like what I did this time!

whohoo ~ wings! i hope to get started on this..quick like! | ||||
| aunt e |
Ok, I'm a nerd. Mine were sent yesterday so start watching!  !
|
||||
| mykidsmom4ever |
Got yours today erin whoot whoot Love it!! | ||||
| ~ melodyz ~ |
WOW...you ladies are fast..ACK! now i really gotta get moving!
i've been stuck on digis today |
||||
| vellumx |
wow Erin!!!!..you didn't waste any time.....Can't wait to see what you did!! I'm still working on ideas....
Marlene, I almost missed your posting!!..Wow, you guys are fast.. ..
Ladies...Until further notice, we will not be sending Mari an ACT. Not sure what is happening, but I think it only fair we move on without her. If we hear from her and she decides to continue, we will start back with her that month. It may be next month or maybe not at all. So, you will only need to make 6 cards. Remember, one of them is for you. |
||||
| aunt e |
I hope Mari is ok. I shouldn't have jumped this one so soon in mailing because of the amount of supplies I had to use for this ATC, I could only make 6 to begin with and didn't keep one for me. Oh well. I have the pic. Serves me right. 
|
||||
| vellumx |
sorry, Erin... :sad
guess something was telling me I should have thought about this sooner, but who would have though there'd be some in the mail already... ..
|
||||
| aunt e |
I should have stopped and thought about it myself. I got a jump start on them in June because I was having fun and I knew I had the time then. I'm stuck on September's theme though. Got some little ideas... |
||||
| mykidsmom4ever |
Girls, when I first posted that i received erin's card, I was in a hurry and didn't tell you how wonderful it is.
Wonderful card erin and if I don't have another stamp, I'll be using the same one that you used :thumbup:
|
||||
| ~ melodyz ~ |
can't wait to see that card IRL..sounds so yummy!
and roe..thankx for letting us know about mari |
||||
| aunt e |
Thanks, Rita! I won't mind at all if you use the same stamp.:) |

I started on mine, but not sure which way to got with it...hmmmm...I aint gonna say.... 
|
||||
| vellumx |
Erin, I received you awesome card today...I love the way you did the saying!!..Is that your eye??......cool if it were.....
|
||||
| aunt e |
Thanks! It's not my eye. I would have to be too, too creative for that. That would be a cool idea though!
|
||||
| ~ melodyz ~ |
i'm glad i'm not the only one...talk about slow...whoa! i started a couple..and just didn't like them...ok..back to the drawing board
|
||||
| vellumx |
Mel, that's what happened with me too...I made one to see how it would come out, but....then I made another one with little changes...ok, I'm going in a whole different direction.....
|
||||
| aunt e |
Marlene - I meant to post yesterday that I got your card! It's absolutely goregeous! Love the 3D and detail on the wings! | ||||

Oh, Roe, I am so darn sure that it was YOU who sent me a holder just like it - and I've been using that as a pattern!
And for the pos comments, all. I happen to be particularly pleased with this one! (unlike most of my others)
|

| scrapmami |
Hello! I posted on the July thread, so I won't go into it again here. I'm going to start working on the August cards, but don't worry if you already finished them and didn't count me (I wouldn't have counted me either). I received Erin's--gorgeous! And everyone should be receiving their July cards in the next couple days. I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do for this one, though... | ||||
| vellumx |
...oh Marlene..that is too funny, but very clever!!!.....
Mari, I haven't started August yet, but I will have a card for you!!!..I am just so glad you are back with us and you were gone because of a vacation!!!..We do get concerned when we don't hear from our girls!!!! Ladies...mari is back!!!! I want to make sure everyone sees this.. ..
|
||||
| ~ melodyz ~ |

||||
| vellumx |
Mel, that surprises me because so many of your cards have wings !!!....so, guess when you have to do wings, your brain freezes.....I'm sure you cards are going to be awesome..they always are!!
|

||||
| vellumx |
Sorry Rita, I'm not home so I can't help with the address... | ||||
| mykidsmom4ever |
i wrote it down the last time you gave it to me and now I can't find it. I don't think she's listed on the directory but that may have changed. I'll PM erin and see if she has it. |
||||
| mykidsmom4ever |
Mailed mine today, sorry so late in the month
Mel and Roe...I mailed my Christmas card along with the ATC. |
||||
| vellumx |
Thanks, Rita!!..I'll be looking forward to getting it!!
I mailed my ATCs Saturday from Sarasota...All except Mel's...Sorry Mel. I need to get to the post office for yours and I haven't made it there yet. |
||||
| serene scrapper |
Can't remember what I've said already but getting Roe's today reminded me:
I have Roe's, Jamie's, and Mel's for August. Roe, just got yours and I LOVELY!!!! |
||||
| vellumx |
Glad you got it, Marlene!!!
I got Mel's and Jamie;s!!!!..Love them, ladies!!! Mel, I got your card to the post office today, so it should take about 2 weeks for you to get it...
|
||||
| ~ melodyz ~ |
thankx for letting me know ladies (don't forget to fold
and bend those wings out of your cards..makes it look totally different) and roe..i'll be on the lookout! 
|
||||
| vellumx |
Mel, I saw that on your previous post and I love how you made that butterfly fly!!..
Marlene, I lifted your wing too and it's awesome...Just too bad when I put them in the folder then go back down again.. |
||||
| jamiereyes626 |
I have Erin, Mel, Rita, Marlene and Roe's cards. I must say this all of you did a fabulous job with the wings!!!! The artwork on these cards is amazing. For those of you who missed this swap I can only say you really missed a good one. 
|
||||
| serene scrapper |
I also see that I have Erin's, too! Missed that one ....was the first one I got! | ||||
| vellumx |
Erin, your card was returned to me. I explained on a post I started what happened...I'll get it out tomorrow with my return address on the FRONT!! | ||||
| aunt e |
I got Rita's today - absolutely gorgeous!!!!! | ||||
| vellumx |
must be all the rain...but it was Rita's card that was returned..I think
Ok, Erin, let me know if you get my card...or Rita let me know if you got my card One of you aren't getting it because I still have it...
|
||||
| vellumx |
Rita, I received you awesome card!!..Ok, I can see it's on vellum, but did you print that, stamp..what?? Love it!!
you are really good at this ATC stuff... whoot whoot |
||||
| aunt e |
I got Roe's today! Soooo pretty!!!! | ||||
| vellumx |
Glad you got it, Erin...(thank you) Now, I know it must be Rita's that I didn't get out....
|
||||
| mykidsmom4ever |
I printed it on vellum and added some stickles. Thank you for the sweet compliment : 
|
||||
| vellumx |
Rita, honest, that is gorgeous..Where did you find the print? Just think how pretty that would look with a Christmas theme and popped on the front of a Christmas card!!.. | ||||
| mykidsmom4ever |
I can't remember, I think I googled fairy images, maybe wings? Went through them till i found one I liked. |
||||
| vellumx |
, really a cool idea you gave me!!
|
||||
| serene scrapper |
I got Rita's yesterday - very very nice! | ||||
| vellumx |
Attention ATC ladies....
For the rest of our swap, we only need to make 6 cards. I think it only fair that we excuss Mari from the rest of the scheduled months. Thanks for your understanding... :
