Oh, I’m so relieved it got there! I was starting to worry about that one.

It would be nice to try out Sketchbox. I started by “trying out” ArtSnacks and I haven’t stopped. The stuff I get duplicates of (I only need so many HB pencils) or they don’t work for what I do I send to my niece who is in school for Graphic Design among other degrees.

I received cards from both @thanate and @Reinikka ! :slight_smile:

The first is from @thanate, she made me a fabulous chicken with fabulous ‘hair’! I love it! :smiley: And she also sent me some stamps! :slight_smile: Thank you very much!

And @Reinikka sent me one using multiple themes (crystals, glittery/metallic goodness)! It’s beautiful, thank you so much! :slight_smile:


I had to take two pics so you could see the details because the flash made a glare. Unfortunately my camera wouldn’t focus well without the flash, but hopefully you can see the elements better. :slight_smile:

I’ve been spoiled with jellyfish and coffee :smile:

From @thanate some super cool watercolor jellies on black paper

And bonus stamps :grin:

Some coffee from @bluebird (I love the hearts!)

And I’m thinking the coffee came from this jellyfish cafe from @Lynx :grin:

Thank you all! I’m exhausted from work but had to jump on here to post them :slight_smile:

That is a wonderful enchanted forest. Love the forest spirit in the bottom left, but of course I would since I collect stamps :slight_smile:

Hi all-- I just told @jemimah this, but since we’ve had a bunch of late sign-ups I’m not going to close claiming until the morning of the 1st (EST), so feel free to get a bunch of last-minute claims in!

Assuming we make it in the next swaps poll, we’ll be back in October. :grin:

I received two more cards! :blush:

The first is from @irid3sc3nt. She made me a pretty sparkly red pebble themed card that also used the papercut style theme I had as a themed. :slight_smile: It’s the magic red pebble from the story “Sylvester and the Magic Pebble”! I hadn’t heard of this story before so I looked it up and it looks like a really sweet children’s story. :blush: It’s great, thank you so much! :blush:

The second is from @pioneer9. She made me a beautiful corvid themed card. :blush: I love the the texture on the feathers and beak! It’s great, thank you so much! :blush:

These are both great cards! love the dimension in the pebble one and the expression in the crow’s face!

I got a jellyfish from @irid3sc3nt :grin: “Pelagia noctiluca”

And a quote framed in masterboards from @megwell :grin: She said the masterboard was made by @Smmarrt :star: “This Hour”

Quote from Walt Whitman reads “Happiness, knowledge, not in another place but this place, not for another hour but this hour”

Thank you both! I really love them and I’m sorry it took me a while to post them…
