AngelJoy, would love to trade for your card with the food on it.

Sure! I'd love your "Blessings" if it's still available.

[Collagaint Ashley]

AngelJoy, it's yours!

Everybody, please post messages and swap requests here on the forum so we all know what's going on.

I'd love to see more of your lovely cards!!!

I havent made it to my craft room today. I did dishes, 2 loads of laundry and binged watched the last dvd of Season 3 Heroes. and I ate too many brownies. UGH!

I did get a lot done around the house though.

[jo.on.the.go]

One can never eat too many brownies! That’s like saying one ate too many Magnum ice cream bars.

I made three cards today...the first two are beeswax and napkin collages.

[sniisk]

I was able to make some cards.

I'm thankful: My daughter and her favorite cartoon. Frinds who bring (or brought) something new to my life.

This week started quite well but then things happened. Our virus situation has been relatively good but it's getting worse now. I'm teaching some practical subject in two universities. We have a lab week this week and next week. That means I cannot work from home. We had to divide group sizes into half and it means I had to double my working hours.

I guess I'll spend my free time to prepare backgrounds for the Pre-Holiday-Season-a-thon.

Ashley, thank you for the invite! I hadn't checked in here since last month, but was happy to find out about the athon now. I might have a chance of some art time today or tomorrow, but am not sure yet. Husband is working all weekend so it depends on how the kids will cooperate. The 6yo is very into starting Christmas preparations and I might be able to combine it with some card making.

Sniisk, sorry to hear that you're having pain! And extra work hours in the lab - I don't know if that is a good or bad thing. I hope you get paid extra at least. I had an art journaling workshop (that I was teaching) split in two groups in June but I had to teach them at the same time, so no extra hours - just more busy running between the two classrooms. Of course the students and I were glad it could happen at all, though.

Hi Linda, I am thankful for your sharing the Audubon Birds link and also for your pm! I'll reply in a minute,

I want to share a free resource, too: www.thegraphicsfairy.com - a huge collection of free-to-use vintage images that the owner Karen has scanned from different resources. The search function works pretty well so it's easy to look for particular themes, too.

I am afraid I have to say goodbye until at least until the next athon. Thank you Ashley. Sorry I only got to put the one card on, but I am with you in spirit. Thank you for the trade, jo. You gals have fun. Seascape131

Wow, you've all been busy while I've been doing life today. And CQ5, laundry is important. LOL

Wonderful cards, Jo and mrubyjean! And I totally agree about Magnum bars. Yum! I'd love to swap for your "humor" card.

Great sniisk! Hope you're feeling better.
