Yikes, how come it’s already mid-March??

This year is already doing my head in.

Question for.all of you (but Cosplayers in particular: My twins want Sonic Screwdrivers. The ones they want are 10th (and possibly 11th) Doctor… The problem is that they are going quite expensive on eBay, and only the 13th Doctor’s sonic screwdriver is readily available.

I’m not sure if that’s actually possible to craft (obviously they want the noise and the light!).

Any suggestions much appreciated! :wink::hugs:

FYI - In case anyone missed it, the next round of swap ideas are up!

Just a friendly reminder that today is the last day of April. You have about 5.5 hours to get in your battle if you’re trying to craft as much as possible for more raffle tickets. Monkey says to put on your zoomie face and get crafting! :joy:

This may just be a problem on my computer, but when I tried to check my tracking sheet, I got an error message from Google Sheets about not having permission to view it. Not a big deal – I was just confirming my official Zap count – but I wanted to flag it.

Thanks. I hit something weird and I knew it messed something up, but couldn’t figure out what. I will try to fix it in the morning. Thank you for the heads up!

June prompts are posted! Can you believe it’s June already?!

@storerboughtcreation - I wasn’t able to open the Google docs to check what I have posted this season. It said I needed permission…?

PS. Loving the cat pipcs!
