Woohooohoooohoooo!!!!! I got my box of crafty goodness from Barbara today. She made me a painting on a tray, so it could be used as a tray, but it won't!!! My painting is titled "Cosmic Love" and I love it. It is everything I like, funky, eclectic, and colorful. Thank you Thank you again Barbara!!! Barbara will post a pic when she gets my pm.

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Sat, July 1, 2006 - 2:22 PMWhen people post pictures of their trade item, could they also post the words that inspired it? That'd be cool. Mine is SOOO almost ready to ship. I'm shipping Monday fo' sho'! -

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Wed, July 5, 2006 - 8:47 AMMy problem is something of a cautionary tale to all Crafty Traders: Be sure you have a box that will fit your craft! I may have to have UPS make me one! It will go out today, though, come heck or high water! Mojave, it's on its way! -
-
Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Wed, July 5, 2006 - 12:25 PMIt's off! UPS made a box specially for it! I have pictures, but want to wait to post them until Mojave has it safe and sound. UPS said Thursday. -

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Sun, July 9, 2006 - 9:31 AMMojave, are you there? Your package was delivered, but noone was home. Twice. I hope you can sign and have them leave it. Let me know if you're out there! -

Sun, July 9, 2006 - 2:57 PMI have received the fantastic cards from Anne!!!! How she knew I still love to write handwritten cards escapes me. They are so COOL!!!
Anne, you are awesome... -

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Sun, July 9, 2006 - 3:04 PMYay! I'm so glad you liked them.
Is there anyone still waiting for their goodies? I want to make sure everyone has received their items before I get things rolling on the next trade. -
-
Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Sun, July 9, 2006 - 3:39 PMI haven't recieved mine, yet. I mailed mine to Mojave last week and UPS tried to deliver it twice, but she wasn't home. I PM'd her to see what's up. I'm ready for the next one, though. Crank her up! -

Kathleen, I got it today. It's INCREDIBLE.
She made me a gorgeous statue of Bast, the Egyptian Cat goddess. She's amazing, lithe, proud... I can't describe her well enough. I'm literally in tears.
Thank you SO much.

N i k i just emailed me this weekend to let me know mine is on the way - her 4 month old is a valid excuse!
But she did receive what I sent to her - I popped a pic up on my blog... -

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Mon, July 17, 2006 - 9:27 AMTracey, could you PM me Spanker's address? I have her as a partner for the CV Doll/Tou trade and I don't have her address. Duh! I messaged her, but no response so far. I wanted to get it out today. If you don't feel comfortable doing this, I'll understand.

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Tue, July 25, 2006 - 11:15 AMHey Tracey,
It is in the mail, has been for a few days, so should be there soon. My camera is on the fritz, so hopefully you can take a pic of it when it gets there to post here. Thanks so much for my little box, I really like the silver trim. If you have a pic, it is safe to post it now that I have my lump of crafty goodness! -

The sari fabric sides are a rich red with gold embroidered paislies and vines and other henna-like design. Just perfect! -

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Tue, July 18, 2006 - 2:05 PMI got my stuff! Thank you, Mouse, for the beautiful little wooden box. I love it! I love how everyone can read a quote and get something totally different out of it. The travel theme is inspirational, I need to do more travelling abroad. I will use the box to remind and encourage me. The sticky notes are way cool, too. Never seen them like that before. Thanks again! -

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Tue, July 18, 2006 - 2:13 PMglad you like it. originally i was going to use some antique maps i got when my grandmother died but i cut em wrong and scramble around for a replacement.
i've decided to give the bowl lady a necklace to cover the glue mark around her neck, i hope you don't mind. -

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Tue, July 18, 2006 - 2:19 PMThat's perfect! I love to add a little something to everything I receive in these trades. It's sharing art. -

Re: Inspiration Trade, update
Wed, July 19, 2006 - 11:09 PMoh i am sooo thrilled with what kim made for me!! my inspiration was from my friend karen's poem -- " look in your tears; you will see your soul"
she started with a journal called "a woman's path" then embellished the cover with three dimensional, textural additions like fibre and coloured stones, beautiful words and images, then complimented it with a macramed bookmark that is cleverly attached to the spiral spine. i'll post pics tomorrow. kim, thank you so much. it is truly lovely and so well crafted.
