PIZZA DELIVERY ON THE WAY - Round 14 Mystery Image Swap - Due January 18th!
It is time for new Mystery Image Challenge thread to start!
When we started this swap over two years ago, I knew it would be fun! I want to thank each of you who have swapped consistently every other month! You truly are the best!!! And now we’re ready to head into the future… with the second round of hostessing.
Here are the swap details:
WHO: Sorry, but this is a closed swap which means that we will not be adding any further participants. Those who are listed below have indicated that they wish to move forward with the next round of this ongoing swap. Please note, that if you do not convey that you wish to move forward with the next round, or do not send in your swap from the previous round, you will forfeit your opportunity to participate in the swap.
DUE DATE TO MOVE FORWARD IN THE SWAP: Please post your intent to move forward in the swap by December 18th, 2012. This will give the next hostess time to stamp all of the images needed for the next round.
DUE DATE OF THE SWAP CARDS: Our due date for this mystery round will be January 18th, 2013.
MAILING ADDRESS & INSTRUCTIONS: The address to send your completed swap is located in the package of your images for this round. Your finished cards can be sent to this address along with a self-addressed and stamped envelope for return. Please remember metered stamps will only be honored the day of print, and will not work for your return envelope.
IT'S A MYSTERY: Since it is a mystery swap, sssshhhhh we have to be very quiet! We have participants that live in Canada and they sadly do not receive their mail until much later, so if we could keep a secret on the images and such until everyone receives, that would help keep the element of surprise alive.
POSTING YOUR COMPLETED CARD TO YOUR BLOG: Since this is a mystery, please do not post your completed card to your blog until January 18th, 2013.
WHAT YOU RECEIVED: Each of you should have received a set of quite unique/unusual stamped images from me in the return envelope of the last round. I know these stamps are not the normal kind, forcing us to think outside the box. I hope you will have fun with them!
CARD DETAILS: This is a 3 + 1 swap, for a total of 4 cards. The plus one is for me, the hostess! Please use quality cardstock for the base (Stampin’ Up, PTI, GinaK), minimum of two layers, and at least one embellishment.
LET US KNOW WHO YOU ARE: Please sign the back of your cards. Everyone does such a great job creatively, that it is great to ask how to do a technique or to just give you kudos on a job well done!

ummmmmmmmm... no, Barb, you don't. You just are the lucky one who lives closest to Terry. Besides, you get the bonus of having LONGER to create your masterpieces than anyone else (besides Terry) gets. Oh, the pressure!

Good Morning Mysterious Friends!
I know, Tami... these two ARE confusing, especially since Terry hosted both and now I'm hosting both. EEK! How did that happen??? I had you down as continuing on (you told me in another thread yesterday), and now I'll mark you as checked in, too.
YAY! Darlene is here! I'm so glad you are... and that you want to continue on, too!

Good Morning--hope your Wednesday is starting out great!
I am starting the Christmas decorating today--after buying a new tree yesterday......... It is kind of a long story and quite an afternoon of visiting 5 stores looking for a new tree while transporting our current 10 foot tree (three sections with lights burned out in all of them) in the back of my SUV. End result--a new tree a bit smaller than the one we have had for 11 years, so I am sure I will need to decide on which ornaments are used this year and put others away for another year. We still might have the lights on the other tree repaired, depending on the cost and try to sell it next summer at a rummage sale. The main tree will get decorated today and maybe a few of the smaller ones too.

And, I think Carol is hosting both within a month or two of each other. This one is due in March and I am wondering if that is around the time of the other wedding in her family? I could switch with her and do March and she can do July?
Carol--oh Carol.......................... Where are you?

Carol--hope all is well--and that everyone is handling the canceled wedding. At least it seems everyone was not too far into the plans yet--I hope.....................
ummmmmmmmm... no, Barb, you don't. You just are the lucky one who lives closest to Terry. Besides, you get the bonus of having LONGER to create your masterpieces than anyone else (besides Terry) gets. Oh, the pressure!
tztztztz (to Barb!)
I SHOULD be the one to get a prize fo having the SHORTEST time to create a card!!
Right Forest??

OH my gosh!! FAST babies!!! Lucky YOU!!!
and CONGRATULATIONS on the BIG news too!
Wow!!!....another little boy!♥
Whew! I thought I was the only one who got these two swaps confused, LOL. It seems that I am in good company. I wonder which one of us will send in the cards made from images that belong to the other swap? Probably me!
Carol: Our DD has been there, done that. Hmmm, similarities in our lives just keep continuing don't they? Saying a prayer for all of you, hoping that the holidays aren't too stressful and that you are taking good care of yourself.

ummmmmmmmmmm.... Carol, you didn't say... do you want to continue on into the next round? I'm assuming you do, since you talked about hostessing in a bit, but I still need to hear for sure.
Actually, I'm not! Probably because when I checked in on post #9, I couldn't spell, hee hee!!! Which is ironic, since spell checked rechecked my spelling - ROFL!
I'm not really HETE ... I'm here I'm officially moving on and can't wait to see what this immie is!

Good Morning--Day 2 of the Christmas Transformation is here. Day 1 went well----the main tree is maybe 1/2 done and I have completed 5 smaller trees--Packers, Badgers, Boyd's Bears, Patriotic and a Vintage one. I got a couple of small 3-4 foot trees last year on clearance, so I am going to add a wine tree and a teacher tree. I want to finish the main tree, plus all of the additional trees--last year I had 18 total, so I think I will in the 20's this year. This weekend we wil do the roping on the deck rail and I might put some more lights in a couple more shrubs--I bought some LED ones last year and I sure like the way they look.
