And by Joining BRAK it provided me with more people to send to ... I greatly enjoy crafting birthday cards to send out each month... I do the same thing you do too Barb, I write the date on the envie and then just drop them in the mailbox as the month goes along...
I will up the anti for anyone in this swap who joins BRAK , and posts here to tell us you joined, I will send you a little surprise in your return package...
Think of how you can make the world a better place, by just sending out a few beautiful birthday cards each month
It's baby card creating day here! There are six babies due within the next month or so here, so perfect excuse to sit down and stamp! What are you creating today?

Holy babies that's wonderful... I created cut out valentines cookies today... when my little one wakes from her nap we will frost them
Ahh - fantastic mother! I sent my boys to the basement to play, while I craft! ... feeling guilty...
Well Aliza is only 6 months old so she isn't old enough to be sent to play... but some day... Do not feel guilty... I bet they love getting to play in the basement and you get in some craft time yea!!!
What are you making? cards?

They were banging around and being Bob the Builder, so they were happy to play... I'm making cards, yes. lots of baby cards!
I spent yesterday making the Valentines for my kiddos and then little treats for them as well. I made these little zebra pretzel treats and then a little card that says "I'm wild about you!" The little treats are the cutest!

How did the cookies turn out?
Yeah for Bob the Builder... how old are your boys?
The cookies turned out great.. I made cut out hearts for Valentines day... and it was the best recipe I have used in a while... you start with the butter ice cold and they did not spread in the oven at all...

Ya, yeah for Bob the Builder! There is actual wood and hammers and nails throughout the basement - they are not satisfied with play hammers and nails anymore! Our boys are 5 and 3...
Sounds like perfect cookies - what a great way to shape them!
Oh yes! There is a little party and craft planned for Valentines Day...it is ALSO our 100th day of school, so it is like party central in Kindergarten on Thursday. AND we have an in-service on Friday, so Thursday we are going all out because there will be no kiddos on Friday.
P.S. I have inquired about BRAK...I have made splitcoast a daily stop and have rediscovered my "scrap cave"!

Yea for wooping it up all in one day... our 100 day was meant to be today, but there was a snow day on Friday so it is tomorrow, and then Valentines day party of Thursday...
BRAK is a great thing.. I love making the birthday cards every month... and I am glad you have rediscovered the craft room... and I hit up splitcoast like many times a day
I would like one spot in full sized if it is possible. This is all new to me but I am looking forward to the fun!
Well Welcome to the fun... Glad that you are getting into swapping it is so much fun...
All you have to do for this swap is make 6 birthday cards with something that sparkles on them and put them in a ziplock bag to send to me with another envelope for me to return you 5 different ones from everyone swapping
Please feel free to ask any questions that you might have, we want your first swap to be great!
Tomorrow is the 100th day combined with Valentine's Day. Super excited!
P.s. I'm a BRAK member!
Oh yes I forgot... It is going to be a jam packed day... I sent in all of my valentine's cards to school, and asked my sub to make sure everyone got theirs in their mail box... I am going to miss being at school this year for V day... I do love spreading the love!!!
and P.s I will have a sweet goodie in your return envelope

They are absolutely beautiful... I love doing swaps to see what everyone else creates... I love the design of the orange and red ones with the big rectangles as the background
