Some things I've been doing....

I thought I'd be back sooner, but I guess I haven't been up to par lately. Working lots, a little depression (hormones) and kid tug of wars...there wasn't much fun to post. I have forced myself to do some swaps, not as many as last year, just to keep myself going....so now I have to post something or whoever reads my post will think I had dropped off the face of the earth!!

I wanted to change my blog up a bit, but I am still working on how - ya, that's the main point right?!

So I thought I'd start off with some Red Lead swaps I've completed lately...

These ATC's were for the Antique Ancestors Swap in June.

These were for the Choski Swap in July. These were something other than a paper craft - actually making jewlery (another craft I like now!*wink*)

This was the packaging for the 2 I sent. (one for the hostess)

These ATC's were made for the Artful Holiday ATC swap in August... For September it's "Which Red Lead Image are you" swap. I wasn't sure I'd sign up but was able to start the 9 ATCs so I'm gonna put my name on the list. They are due on Sept. 30th. I've completed the Altered Treasure Tin Swap with a little goodie to go along with it. (My first altered tin too!) I also have Sweet & Sinister Tag Swap due on Oct 10th. These will be the next thing I work on. I actually started them by spraying them with Glimmer Mist and have images picked out to use. I just have to schedule some time to finish.

Thanks to the G20 Summit I've decided to take off next week....our office is closing down on Thurs/Fri so I figured why not take the extra 3 days. I've got lots of cleaning to do and crafting too!

Until tomorrow friends.....

I really like those pins-they look like fun to make and wear, too! I got my tin finished and mailed before vacation-whew! I'm away now but checking in from time to time. Check out the Say It With Letters blog if you get a chance!
