Response: Thanks! I had fun putting it all together. I decided to use a print of some of my artwork to make envelopes for this swap since there were so many. The local PO initially said one stamp would work but when I went to another PO they said I needed 3! Good thing I double checked! Anyway...glad it got there intact. Enjoy!
Response: Thanks! The envelope was from some artwork I printed out and folded to make the envelopes. Of course, I stuffed it a little too much and had to put on the extra postage but it was fun gathering everything. Enjoy!

LOL, when my husband had a work conference in Boston I tagged along and while he was busy I hopped the T to 1325 commonwealth to check out Aerosmith's apartment!

You can take a look at my book on my blog at www.betweenassignments.blogspot.com :) I've quit watching Idol when Quentin got booted for Rayvon...I'm not that fond of him and it seems he's only there because of the twitter saves!!! I still think Clark has the best voice but who knows. I will watch the finale because I hear STEVEN TYLER will be on to debut his new single with Jax (I do like her voice)!!!!! Anywho. Thanks for the heart. Take care and happy zining;)

Response: Thank you so much:) so glad you enjoyed it. I've been having fun doing these "day-by-day" style zines. I'm hoping to do them all year..will be interesting to go back and look at them later on. Kinda like a portable diary or journal. Take care:)
Response: Thank you so much. So glad it was entertaining:) Thanks for the heart and take care:)
Response: your are so very welcome. Glad you liked them:)
Response: Great! So glad you can use them. What kind of artwork do you make with them. I bought them to make paper fabric or paper cloth. These are a few tutorials I found. Using napkins peeled apart as tissue paper. -- http://www.joggles.com/fabricpaper.htm -- http://www.ihanna.nu/blog/2010/02/how-to-make-paper-cloth-a-tutorial/ -- have fun!!!
Response: YAY!!!! so glad you can use my stuff:) Feels good to purge but even better to know someone else can have so fun with it:) Take care!
Response: YAY!!! Thanks for rating and I'm so glad you liked it. I tried to find where I bought the tape and give you an exact link but this is the best I can do: http://stores.ebay.com/qlychee/ THERE ARE SO MANY to choose from and it's super cheap...comes right from China!!! I think I'm going to go back in and look again:) Been having a good time put this style of zine together. Although my color inkjet finally went kaput and I got a B&W laser printer so the zines might not be in color:( I could run up to Kinko and make copies...it's only four people I need to send to. Anyway...sorry for rambling, I get so excited about washi and just want to share. Take care;) B

Response: You are welcome:) Glad you liked it:) Take care.
Response: HA! So glad to hear I gave vibes:) and good ones at that. What's even more funny is all the cards in this series of color themed ATC were done at one time last november and I had no idea who my partner was. I read the profiles but had no idea about the Portland connections:) BTW, my husband and I had a fabulous time when we visited last year. I'm a Seattle kinda girl but Portland gave it a run for it's money:) Some of my favorite artists, Theo Ellsworth and I think Jesse Reno hail from Portland. Take care and thanks for rating. Brenda (beenebag)

Brenda
Response: YAY! glad you liked it:) Can't wait to finish FEB:)
Take care:)
Response: Your welcome:) Glad you liked it. Take care
Brenda
Response: Well, thank you:) Glad you liked it. It's fun doing bits and pieces in such a tiny space. I've started the FEB one and I see they've posted the MAR, APR, MAY mini zines (I'm watching those swaps but will probably sign up) Phillip Phillips was wonderful. He's SOOOOO laid back, I remarked to my hubby that it looked like he had just rolled out of bed:) It was a small venue and it was so weird between songs people were so quiet until he talked to us:) It was a low-key crowd (we saw him in Canada) and he kept trying to get us up to dance. Eventually he won out and toward the end the "youngins" made thier way to the stage and stood there to watch. He liked that:) Sang my favorites "Unpack Your Heart" and "Fly":) And that man can play the guitar. Did a lot of jamming with the band. All in all it was fun and my husband (who did a lot of eye-rolling at my enthusiasm) actually said it was pretty good:) YAY! I miss Tyler on Idol but Keith, Jennifer and Harry are hysterically entertaining. Especially Harry:) Anyway, I'll quit jibber jabbering:) Take care:)
Response: YAY!!! So glad you liked it.
Take care:)
Brenda
Response: So glad you liked it:) It's fun doing little bits and pieces for the day. Take care:)
Brenda
Response: YAY! Gladd you liked them. HA, I just went to one of your resources and bought 16 rolls!!!! OMG. And there was some drool worthy ones no longer in stock:( so sad!!!
Anyway, glad you're enjoying the washi:)
Brenda
Response: Your welcome...I've really gotta curb my procurement of this stuff. It's so addictive:)
Take care.
Brenda
Response: WOW!! That was crazy fast!!! Thanks for the heart and glad you liked it:) Take care.
Brenda
Response: YAY! So glad you finally got it!! :)
Take care.
Brenda
Response: YAY! Glad you liked it. The pill box was sooooo boring looking so I was compelled to spruce it up. This was such a fun swap. Take care.
Brenda
Response: You are welcome. I had so much fun making this series of ATCs:) It was great to use stuff from my ephemera boxes. Glad you liked it. Take care.
Brenda (beenebag)
Response: Thank you so much:) Your words and prayers are much appreciated. Participating in the swaps help me to keep my mind from closing off from everything. (which would be really easy to do right now) I am fortunate to have another close friend (the three of us met in college) who's going through the grieving process as well and we're helping support each other.
I am so glad you liked both zines. The camping zine was originally just for family, completely forgot to add author information to it:) And I'm not sure where I got the 2-sided idea but I thought it was such a waste of space not to put something there:) Copy away:)
Take care and thanks for the heart:)
Response: YAY! so glad:) Take care!
Brenda
Response: Thank you so much:) so glad you like it:) Take care.
Brenda
Response: YAY! glad you got it:) Yes, Aruba was our end of year vacation, although it's so cold here all the warm has been frozen out of me! Thanks for the heart and the hug. Really appreciate it. And yes, I think I will continue with the zines for the rest of the year, I hope!! Take care.
Response: Glad to hear you enjoyed it. Thanks for the heart:) Take care.
Brenda

Response: WOW that was speedy delivery. Hope some of them fit your collection:) Take care. Thanks for rating.
Brenda
Response: I'll email the recipe later;) You are welcome. I can never be jealous of snow! I'm a sunshine, warm skin kinda gal. I'll only enjoy it if it wasn't like last winter...that was too brutal to even go outside unless necessary. and shoveling is great exercise but I'd rather be running on a beach:) you have a great holiday as well. Thanks for rating:)
Brenda
Response: Your welcome....thanks for the heart:) happy holidays:)
Response: Your welcome:) I couldn't let the other side go blank...sometimes I copy a larger picture on the backside so unfolded it's like a mini poster:) I just recently started making ATCs again as well. It is fun. Now if there's just a way to make a living doing them that would be heaven:) Take care.
Response: So glad it got to you. I always get a little nervous when I decorate the envelopes:) And I'm glad I got the buttons right...I had no idea what Studio Chibli was, thank goodness for Google images;) Take care and you are SO WELCOME!
Response: So glad you like it:) I loved Moonrise Kingdom:) This style of zine is really appealing to me. I love collecting bits and pieces of the day. Are you doing the December Day by Day?
Response: Thanks for rating! We got the power back on Wed afternoon, so I had time to get my cooking done:) YAY! so nice to sleep in a warm house again. Take care.
Response: YAY!!! So glad you liked it. I had fun putting it together for you:) I used to love Third Rock. I can't believe he's a grown man now!
Response: It is...I wish I could find a way to make the end result matte. It's the shininess that throws me off when I collage with it. I found stencils that had bolder patterns, more open areas to let the magazine image through worked best. Anyway glad you like the card. Take care!
Response: Thank you! The background was from another larger piece of artwork that I didn't like that much...you know sometimes you work on things and they just don't gel. But, when it's cut up into smaller bits, it gets interesting again:) So glad you liked it:)
Response: Your welcome. So glad you liked everything:) Take care.
Response: Well, I'm happy I did:) Thanks so much for rating:) Take care and enjoy;)
Response: Thank you...so glad you liked them. As soon as I saw the theme I thought it would be fun to use my security envelope patterns for the grapes:) Take Care.
Response: Thanks for the heart. So glad you like it all:) Take care.
Response: YAY! Hope you can use some of it. Thanks for rating. Take care.
Response: You are too kind. Thank you so much for the validation:) I love making little bits of art for people and I know how you feel about some of the less than thoughtful things that come. And I too get some gems from time to time. I always want to make stuff that's special. So glad you liked the art:) Thanks for the heart:) Take care and keep making good stuff:)
Response: YAY! so glad you liked them. I based their shapes on a Blythe doll:) I knew you'd know about Hi Fructose:) Take care and thanks for the rating;)
Response: It was a rubberstamp. I got it here:
http://www.silvercrowcreations.com/
but when I looked for it I couldn't fine it:( The code on the side of the stamp was H2005. I sent an email to see if they even sell it anymore:( And HA...I wish I drew it. Even when I was in the practice of drawing regularly don't think I would have been able. Hmmm. Does give me pause to consider that I should start drawing again:) Glad you liked the card:) I had fun making it. Take care.
Response: LOL!!! You have just given me the most entertaining comment I have EVER received on SwapB. I can't take all of the credit...I just read your profile:) So glad my stash has made you happy. And I just may try that chicken strut:) Take care, Brenda

Brenda

Response: YAY! Yes, the truth is out there:) I miss that show.
Take care.
Brenda
Response: YAY!!! I really am glad you love it:) Was a little worried I went too far;P But I just hate to throw out perfectly good things ! It's a weakness. Of course, sticker shock for mailing things these days has knocked me back to reality and you are probably the last to receive the outcome of my obsessiveness of purging;) ENJOY!!! Take care.
Response: HA! I was just looking at this swap to see if you got it yet! Thank you so much for rating and so glad you liked everything. I hope I didn't repeat anything that I sent before:) I need to take pictures of my swaps before I send them out:) Take care.
Response: YAY!!! YAY!! I am so glad you can use it. I know I went a bit overboard but I couldn't just throw it out!! YAY!
And I almost had the whole set of those quarter toys (xoddo) collected. I only needed 3 more out of the 12. When I went back to the restaurant that had the bubble gum machines the vendor had just taken those toys OUT!!!...So frustrating!! I'm so bummed. You can't just buy them from the manufacturer. They are so cute! *SIGH*
Anyway Enjoy!
Response: YAY! Thank goodness. So glad everything can be used:) Thanks for the heart and enjoy:)
Response: NOOOOOOOO! really. Well that sucks! I will put together some more samples and keep it very flat and send in a regular business envelope. I won't mark it as a swap on the outside of the envelope. Do you think someone opened it? There's no way for me to track the package since it's going outside the country. I feel so bad and disappointed. I'll try sending again. But THANK YOU for rating me anyway. I'll send you a message when I send the second letter out. Take care ***UPDATE*** I resent 11/14/13 - keeping my fingers crossed that it makes it to you intact this time:)
Response: YAY! I am so glad you liked everything. I really have so much fun putting these packages together. Lately, I've been trying to simplify my space so being able to pass things on so someone else can have fun with them is a great treat:) Thanks so much for the kind words and happy holidays to you too:)
Response: Your very welcome. Glad you liked everthing:)
Take care
Brenda

The background is actually from a larger piece of artwork that I didn't like how it turned out :) Instead of trashing it I cut it up and reuse for backgrounds. Seems to work. I love to recycle things. Lots of times cropping art or even bad photographs actually create a better image than the original. Take care and thanks for the heart:)
Response: YAY! So glad you are pleased:) Thanks so much for the heart! My husband turned me on to the lemon powder. It's great for hot lemon tea or lemonade and best thing it's real lemon.
