ooooh dark fairy tales are SO cool... but I had better pass... I'm trying to wrap up all my current swaps and trades so that I don't have any to worry about once I start this mural that I'm doing for an acquaintance's daughter's bedroom :p

Some nice dark fairytale characters have arrived from Jo Shukar :)

[Amerasu]

Moondance's wonderful cards have arrived :)

[HeavenPhoenix]

Been thinking, and I'm not sure at all if my cards really fit the theme...

[Amerasu]

Are they the ones in the gallery, Heaven? They sure look like a fit to me! :)

I'll be away until Dec 26 - just in case you have any questions or need an address.

[acalla]

[Ms Art Lady]

Amerasu
My cards for this swap will go out in tomorrow's mail. I am also sending your Dec 1/1 card with them since I am your partner this month. Thanks for letting me play!

[Meran]

Sal, I just have too much still on my plate.. James wants HAM and all the fixin's AND open gaming day on the 1st.
and then there's last TWO years of taxes, not caught up (we don't owe, but we gotta get it done.)
So, I'm dropping. Again. I'm not happy. Except for SS, I got to do NO artwork in months!
grumble....

[Amerasu]

No worries, Meran! Stuff happens :)

[kcsnipes]

sorry Amerasu, but i have to drop out, i havent even started unfortunately i've been super busy with my chaotic life, sorry everyone =(

[Amerasu]

No problem! :)

[Amerasu]

Cards from HeavenPhoenix have arrived!

[acalla]

:(
I have run into a brick wall with swap and have to withdraw

Every time I pick a pen or paintbrush for it I fall flat on my face! :confused:

[themuppet]

I'm going to TRY to get these done this weekend and out the door... hopefully they'll make it in time. Some day I'll catch up!

[OuP:]

Oh man, I totally screwed up with this! :shocked: I remembered the theme was "Twisted Fairytales" so I made some kinky princesses. Hope you accept them, 'cause I sent them anyway. I really don't have the time to remake them. If not, just send them back and I'll pay the postal costs. Oh, darn... :(

P.S. Can I post these to the ATCgallery or are they too kinky and booby?

[themuppet]

LOL @ "kinky and booby"

I love 'em!!

[Amerasu]

I like kinky cards! So you're good to go, OuP:! :)

[Amerasu]

Yes, you can post to gallery no problem :)

[themuppet]

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh my life is kicking my ass.

I HAVE CARDS! I sent them in a priority envelope with a moley to you, sal, so hopefully they'll get there quick. Hopefully.

Cinderella, Rapunzel, and Snow White:

[Ms Art Lady]

Amerasu, Have my cards shown up yet? I sent them over two weeks ago and I am getting a little nervous. That envelope also has your Dec. 1/1 card in it.

Sally

[Amerasu]

Yep! It arrived on Thursday and from OuP: too :)

[Amerasu]

I have themuppet's super cool scary ladies :)

[Amerasu]

Ok, all on the way to you today, soon as I drop them off in the mail box :)

Thanks everyone!

[Amerasu]

Sorry, these did not go in the mail box! They're going out today though. I had them in my big shopping bag for a few days.

[Amerasu]

They're gone :)

[MoonDance]

Recieved my cards today and love them all! Thanks for the great trade :)

[Amerasu]

Has everyone received their cards? Just want to make sure. I'm going to archive this thread now but you can still post to it.

[themuppet]

I got mine! I've been terribly lax about posting and giving itraders and such, so I'll be sure to personally thank everyone when I get to the other computer. :D
