Coins? Due Date-September 25th

[goatgoddess]

ok I came up with something, I did change directions. Ended up using up old projects that did not quite come together as planned. I have a lot of papers from just playing around that needed to be used. some of these are more abstract hopefully that works - let me know if not I can do others. boy it is taking me a while to figure out how to upload and post things <G> think I finally have it - also posted to the gallery

I have decided that whatever players send will be okay. My ability to post pictures of anything is gone. And that left way before the grief came. I am almost 15 months into grief. Also I am living on my own for the first time. I think living alone might be way easier when you are young...and confident. I do have a room mate. She is a 6 yr old pit mix who still makes me laugh and comes to sit by me when the grief is so heavy.

 

[NancyL]

GG, would you like me to put you on the player list?

 

[NancyL]

I did add you. If you are sending cards, you might as well be on the list.

 

[goatgoddess]

yes please add me - that would have been helpful to add <G>

 

[An. M. Sudyka]

this was so much fun!! I loved using so many of the Coins that I have been accumulating and some of the many ATC backgrounds that are quietly taking over my craftroom.
My cards will be in the mail tomorrow

once I started I had too many ideas so ended up with 6:6, plus a Host card. The balloon sequin at the bottom right of my 6th card is actually gold, not the black that it scanned

I have company until Thursday. 18 yr olds, so much energy. Both off to different colleges next month.

Went to a Powells bookstore nearby. and out to eat. Diya, my grand is driving her car. It was one we used to own. My husband drove it and it lived in the garage. A Honda HRV. Now it lives in WA and is parked on a street.

I am in charge of a very small ATC group. there are 7 of us and each month we make 6 cards so every one gets one from each of the other players. I usually come up with the theme or technique for the month. But end of summer & into fall, I have each player pick a month and choosethe theme or technique. I still swap out all cards & provide postage & envelopes for everyone.

So blacked out poetry is for August. I've made 2. Only 4 more to go. It was sugested to use a book page but a magazine works, too. All of mine ave nature themes as I am using old National Geographics.

National Geographic magazines have beautiful colors too.
I had a collection of Nat Geog. and another one called Archeology, from the early 2010's. They were in a box in the garage.. At the beginning of the year, we had a leak from the water heater, but we hadn't noticed it because it started small, and I thought it was coming from the washing machine. By the time we realized it wasn't and that it got worse, the plumber came, made us move everything from the garage, and when I moved the box with the magazines, they had gotten wet, and with a musty smell already, I couldn't save them.
My son noticed how much it hurt me having to get rid of them, and thought maybe we could still dry them and save them, but not, they were beyond the recovery point already.
