ALPHA 2...ATC SWAP

MAYBE, just maybe, Nona has sent me all four!!!! less people having them means theres more chance Ive got one coming... oooh arent I naughty, everyone elses are lovely too, but i havent had one of yours for ages...

our postie isnt coming this weekend cos of the fete, so it will be Tuesday before we have any post

mine arrived this morning and they are lovely
i got kims art one karelyns attention and stephs artist
thanks very much I can't wait for next months!

thriftycrafter, sorry I missed your description off but I typed it 3 times before it went up, every time was slighly different as I couldn't remember what I'd wrote. Dodo me.
I did put Army Cadets for one of the A's though and I think you did good getting Apples Amethys and 'Army' cadets all on one ATC.

Steph, Time will tell, but I kept one of yours. Smashing it is too. I love the way one of the tubes is squeezing the paint out.

Goaty, you will have to join in if you want some although I don't know when you could make time a syou have my permanent to make first.

Maria, poor old you having to wait.

Girls, I think the Post Office has done good getting them delivered so quick.

Indeed they have Nona!

Steph, I had one of your Wales ones in the Fullers swap. Your decoupaged lady very cute.

Crumbs Nona, you put so much into these swaps it's not surprising something goes a little awry, not a big deal anyway, but I must say that it's not army cadets, it's the real thing, that's DS1 on his pass out parade, although my other 2 are in Air Cadets, so that's probably where that idea comes from.

I received my lovely swaps from Sue D ace high, Di Aquiligia and Barbara annoyed.

aww, now I know its your DS1 on it Karelyn, I am hoping I get one of those too (i am nosy like that).

Steph, I think Nona's reply abotu shame ive got to wait offers hope... I mean she didnt say 'dont get your hopes up' did she??
ooohh I shall be proling for the postie..

Maria - if you do get one, I hope it lives up to expectations.

Steph.... you jest. I have never had anythign from you that DIDNT live up to its expectations, and I havent forgotten about that fimo you sent me either, am going to have a go (just not today - sore head, see post in incidental).

Mine have arrived and I got Dawn's arrows, Nona's accordian and the arty aardvark. A great selection I cant wait to see what you all come up with for the B's

maria I was lucky and got one of stephs artist ones and it is fantastic so much work put into it!

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you all know what Im going to say dont you?

Yippee, postman just brought my pinky and I got one of stepsh artists!!!! Its fabby Steph, and I am afraid it wins hands down for the 'a' place in my wallhanging. I also got Helens Africa one, which is super too and a fuller ardvark whcih i also love. Maybe I will make a couple of books up too, if this standards keeps up.

Nona, please tell Rachel I love her ardvark and thankyou for sending me one of Stephs masterpieces.

Oh I'm glad you got one and even more glad that you like it.
Obviously all the paint/brush etc is made from Fimo - the pallette itself I cut out several
layers of card and put a wood effect one on the top.

I just do not know how you have the patience! It is gorgeous and I feel very lucky to have one.

Don't forget, I don't work any more. I spent a whole day yesterday doing Halloween
and Alpha B. Need to start the Ireland one now.

Cor, Steph, I don't work either but you are well ahead of me.

thriftycrafter, well Air cadets is still another A, so good for you.

Maria, (quote = Nona, please tell Rachel I love her ardvark and thankyou for sending me one of Stephs masterpieces)
I will tell Rachael next Tuesday. Rachael is very good with designing and has some super ideas. And what you receive is really the 'luck of the draw'. I think we are all after Steph Fantastic Fimos.

I consider myself very lucky too be hosting this ALPHA-2 swap and I am glad you are all pleased with what you got.
