Thanks for the invite. I will definitely pop by and art along if I am able.

Checking in. Hope to join in the fun!

I've been going through old backgrounds of assorted types for possibilities to do something with this weekend. Some I've had for a very, very long time! I actually tossed/recycled a lot of them (why did I keep this???) but did find a few treasures I'll try to make something of this weekend.

Seriously, a 14 x 9.5 x 2 sized drawer was filled with these, plus I have a small shelf where I store my cut out decorative box backgrounds. Who needs that many backgrounds? lol!

Thanks for the invite, I will likely pop in if I can.

[jo.on.the.go]

I’ll be there

[Suzi]

I have a busy weekend ahead of me, but I am going to try to participate!

[StitchinWitch]

I will have to see if I have time. I have a junk journal due on the 30th and its only half done. Maybe I can use that as my art.

I used to sleep in the backyard in hot weather. Woke up one morning with a baby rat curled up next to me in the sleeping bag. Put her in a cage and had a pet for three years.

Cat person here too. All days are cat days.

StitchinWitch, work on your journal and share your progress. This is all about creating together, it doesn't have to be for trade.

I'll be working on a swap or two, and hope to create things to trade as well.

Thank you sooo much for the invite!
But not completely sure if I'm able to do something... So "lurking"...
Will have a really busy weekend, but will try anyway to create something, if I can! Late Summer and start of Fall is always moment full of inspirations!

Thanks for the invite, I think I'm ready for another A-Thon!

Thank you so much for the invite! I'll be here some. I'm also working on some things for other swaps, but would love to pop in and visit with everyone!

According to my computer, it is already August 25 in Australia, so I am offering up my first cards:

Lovely, Jo!

I have to finish reading Frankenstein for a book group tomorrow before I can do any art.

[HHC]

Okie dokie, we're started! Love your cards, Jo! We have goldenrod blooming in the backyard. I've not heard of hummingbird mint plant, but our hardy fuchias are blooming and our hummingbirds love them.

I'm working on a couple of things and will be back shortly to share.

[HHC]

Here are my first cards:

Strawberries (left over idea from Somnia's Berries swap.)
