I’m so sorry for your loss Nancy. I know it’s very difficult for you.

 

[MACE]

I’m waiting for some people to post stuff lol but I will start working on these. It has my imagination going crazy.

 

[NancyL]

Better to sign up on swap thread.

Packed and ready for the next mail bag! I spent a lot of time diguring out my concepts for these, but not sure the execution lived up to it

 

[CTDeezyne]

[NancyL]

Swap Due Date -Friday March 20th
Signup/withdraw date -Sign up by March 6 but allowed to withdraw at any time
Number of Cards - 3 for 3
Number of participants - unlimited
Medium: open

This is what I call a story or situation swap. Someone puts 3 bags near or in your house. I don't know where or who. Remember this is your house. One bag is oh so very heavy, another is so so lightweight and the third is wiggling. Your task is to illustrate what is in each bag. You can include the bag or not. Background has to at least have color. You could think realistically---maybe the heavy one has bricks, maybe the light one has written letters, maybe the wiggly one is a puppy? Or you can approach another way. Stretch your imagination. Maybe one bag is full of elephants. Maybe little elephants. Maybe the light one is full of lightbulbs. Maybe the wiggly bag as some sort of machine. It could be a made up machine or some kind of beast what really cannot fit into a bag but you make it fit. Surrealism could happen.

Necessary but less interesting info:
* ATCs should be in sleeves
* ATCs should be either put in some sort of holder or spread across& taped with painters tape or washi tape. Do not stack the cards.
* Loose cards may escape & tear your envelope.
* Everyone send in your mailing address on a piece of paper or a sticky label. Larger is better than small.
* Please do not send an envelope, I will provide envelopes for everyone.
* US players, send along postage, one forever stamp should be enough.
* International players, I will provide postage.
* Mailing instructions vary by host. Not all mailing information is the same.

So what kind of phone did you get, Nancy?
I need to get a new phone. Have decided I would like another Google pixel but I may have to go with the Samsung. Decisions, decisions!
As always YouTube has a wealth of information on just about anything.
And Google.
I recently found out that you can get printable Shrinky Dink "paper". Because I googled how to put photographs on shrinky dinks. What is hard to find out is the ratio of shrink. Although I think I read on one of them that it decreases by 2/3? Anyone with knowledge of that wants to give me a holler, feel free!
I sent an email to the people that make the Shrinky Dinks - still have not heard back. That was several weeks ago.

Could you tell me what a shrinky dink is? Lol sounds like such a cute name.Lol @ceejay I really don’t know!

 

[NancyL]

No new phone. We closed my husband's phone account. Xfinity/Comcast is difficult to work with. Maybe some day I will change to a dirfferent company.

I am mostly done Nancy, I am still working on a host card for you. I know it’s not required, but I want to do one. I know what I’m making for you. I’m just too tired after making these three tonight. so we have wiggly, jiggly marshmallows, heavyweight, chocolate, and light crackers. I didn’t originally plan on relating them all together, but it just got that way in my head and so I went with it. Finished the last card. I thought it would be appropriate to have the Olympics rings coming out out of a heavy bag. I’ll get these in the mail tomorrow.
