tiny pink bear and my next swap idea.

dum de dum de dum.....


do bee do bee do

deedle deedle dee....


Its just little ole me...
oh yeah, went to hobby lobby yesterday. my goodness thats a big place. Ok, so I was throughly impressed by the size, and there is sooo much stuff in there. but I have to admit, though I loved it and will definitely be going back before easter, I have to say that I still love Joann etcs, Michaels and buffalo stamps better. now, if we could combine those three stores into one... That would be heaven!!
this is post 199... ya'll know what that means right?? I need to make something for a giveaway soon!
oh and I thought Id let you know now what my easter swap will be.. its going to be an easter egg hunt. this is how it'll work. everyone will make two very special easter eggs out of what ever medium they want and mail them to me. I will draw 2 partners for each participant and mail them out. Everyone will get two eggs back, but each one from a different girl. Then everyone will post pictures of the eggs they made and recieved on a specified day and everyone will go easter egg blog hunting to see who made their eggs! now this is just a rough draft of my idea and it may need to be tweaked a bit. Everyone will have to send money for postage along with their eggs and everyone will have to have a blog and be on time for the deadline. For this swap, you wont need to do any little extra goodies to mail out with your eggs, just the eggs. This swap will require quite a bit of work from me, so I wont do the swap myself, besides I would know who my eggs came from!! I'll just host it and take care of getting everything mailed back out to you girls.
so thats my plan... I'll post more about it later when I figure out dates and stuff... then we'll start sign ups! I'm going to have to come up with a perfect cute little easter button for the swap too.
okeedokie.. I've got to goooooo....

Sweet lil' bear. I love the doodles too *winks* Where do you dinf your textile stuff that you use on your bears? I love the pink 'stuff'!
Now your Easter Egg sounds like a lot of fun and as I was reading it- I thought- wow that is a lot of postage and $ to cover the cost. Will you have a weight limit- might be a good idea! Whew! It sounds fun! I"ll have to let this idea marinate with me for a bit, but I'm not ready to hop out of Valentine's Day yet! But I'll keep this in mind! You host such sweet swaps! I enjoyed my last one :O)
I'll fly in again soon! Hugs & Faerie Dust!
