[OriginalYouth]

Shut up. :P

[Amerasu]

C'mon OY! You know you wanna!

[Amerasu]

Livia, you're all signed up :)

[dina54]

Oh I do love drawing Zetti cards :) Sign me up please. Don't know yet if I'll send 3 or 6. I'll see where the spirit moves me.

[Amerasu]

Ok Dina, you're in!

[artyiagirl]

I am soo weak - sign me up!

[al fresco gal]

Hi Sal, I love Zetti swaps! Please sign me up.
Cheers, Margaret

[Amerasu]

Ok guys, you're both signed up!

[adriayna]

Sign me up. I've been having fun in this style.

[Amerasu]

Will do! It's definitely the fun style. I have quite a few pages of this style and keep wanting more.

[kosmopooch]

I'd love to join in!

[Amerasu]

Yay :) I'll add you now!

[gallery318]

I'd love to join. Please sign me up too! I'll probably stick to 3/3. Thanks!

[Amerasu]

Super! I will add you now :)

[artyiagirl]

So, I'm really new to zetti. I think I have a pretty good idea about what the style encompasses. Here are three cards that I've made. I would love to know if the group thinks that these are good fits for the swap. Thanks all!

[Chronata]

Ok sign me up! I need the practice! :D

[Amerasu]

artyiagirl, those are definitely Zetti! And very much you too. What a great combo :)

Ok Chronata, you've been added!

[WhiteMoth]

You know I'm a goner when it comes to zetti :twitcy:

In fact I could do one or two every month!

Thanks for hosting it....add me to the list.
~please~

[princessgene]

Okay I keep looking at this and I finally can resist no longer. Sign me up.

[Amerasu]

Great! Harriet and PG, you're added :)

[potbellyarts]

I love this theme but I feel overextended right now. My kids are gone this long weekend, though, so I'm hoping to get caught up (to a reasonable number of cards owing) and then I'll be back...

Don't sign me up yet, but I'm watching and interested, just FYI.

[OriginalYouth]

Don't sign me up yet, but I'm watching and interested, just FYI.
I'm stalking the thread with you, from the bushes outside Amerasu's house. I brought enough corn nuts and starburst to share. ;)

[potbellyarts]

Oh, goodie, snacks! Want some of my orange soda?

[jart]

Have you finally gotten through your overload. It's been so nice not having to worry about mailing, part of me doesn't want to start...but if I limit myself to under 8-10 a month, not too bad.

I'd love to zetti again.

Joel

[dina54]

My cards will be in the mail first thing in the morning. I posted Pictures in my gallery. Sending 4, keep your choice as a gift.

[Amerasu]

Jart, great to have you! :)

Dina, thank you! :)

[kosmopooch]

Finished my 3rd card today. I'll post as soon as they're scanned! With so much time left, maybe I'll do another three!

[arteeztmom]

I just finished my first ever zetti cards...at least I think they are suitable for the category. I've decided to join the swap. Sign me up!

[Amerasu]

Yay arteezmom, you're added!

Zetti is lots of fun :)

[kosmopooch]

OK...I could have sworn that I already posted this, so if it shows up twice don't ask me why! :jiggy:

Here are the first three cards. If I have time I'll make more.

I don't know if I can let the wheel zetti go!!! :wideeyed:

[Amerasu]

Thoe are so cool, Kosmo! I especially love the peekaboo Zetti!

[studiomelange]

Hey there. Might as well jump in and join the zetti swap. I have never done any before and you're such a pro at it. Can you let the new kid give it a try?

[Amerasu]

You're in Studiolemange!

[adriayna]

Very cool, Kosmo!

I've got mine done, just need to photograph and mail them! :)

[Amerasu]

dina54's wonderful Zettis arrived safely! Thanks so much Dina :)

[Janet]

Could I please sign up for this? Only ever done one zetti but would love to do more. :)

[Amerasu]

You bet! I'll add you now :)

[adriayna]

Amerasu - mine are on their way to you. I'm still promising I'll post pictures soon, hehe.

[Amerasu]

Super cool cards arrived from artyiagirl today!

[Janet]

I have to withdraw from this swap, thanks :)

[Amerasu]

Sure, no problem though we will miss you :)

[adriayna]

Bye crafter412! Sorry you had to go :(

[Amerasu]

I received cards from adriayna and from gallery318 today :)

[arteeztmom]

Well, I did a few cards that may or may not be true "Zettis" but hopefully no recipients will protest. They will go out today or tomorrow and are in the gallery to peek at.

[Amerasu]

Arteezemom, your cards have arrived! They are all fantastic!!! Thanks so much for the extra :)

[katie]

I would like to join in on this one...

[Amerasu]

Hi Katie, Great! You've been added :)

Just send me a PM for my address when you're ready to mail your cards.

[livia]

My cards went postal today.

[Amerasu]

Great, Livia! Thanks for letting me know :)

[WhiteMoth]

Amerasu

Have my cards made it there yet?

:eek:

[Amerasu]

No, not yet! I just checked today's mail and there were no nice envelopes for me today, only the ugly ones that demand money.

[WhiteMoth]

O...I just hate those ugly ones!
:eek:

thx

[Amerasu]

I have cards from Whitemoth, Livia and Chronata here! Thanks you guys, for the extra cards! :)

[WhiteMoth]

Glad to hear they arrived...I checked the date, I sent it 1 week ago today.
I thought it was longer...but only a week..not bad
:)

[OriginalYouth]

I made 3 zetti cards today while working, can I jump in? I'll send with your Fave Artist PATs, Sal....

[Amerasu]

Yep, sounds great! This swap was missing you :)

[OriginalYouth]

Thanks sweety! I was missing it too. :)

Here are the 3 I started today...I reserve the right to add a bit more to them if I have time...

[katie]

ok... I posted my zetti cards to the gallery & will try to get them in the mail today/tommorrow. Some are more zetti than others... but hopefully they will do... I had fun making them.

[Amerasu]

They're gorgeous, Katie! I love them all :)

I had fantastic cards from Studiomelange today. I saw them in the gallery and thought they were amazing then but seeing them in person takes them to a whole new level. Incredible artwork!

[Amerasu]

I had cards from katie and al fresco gal today. Thank you both for the wonderful extra cards! :)

Jus a couple more to come in and then I can swap them out to you.

[princessgene]

Here are my contributions to the zetti swap.

[Amerasu]

Those are super PG!

[adriayna]

Wonderful work PG!

[artyiagirl]

Those really are great PG. They have both a lovely lightness and layers of interest.

[kosmopooch]

Did my cards arrive? I posted them on Nov. 2

Hope they didn't take a detour to Mexico or something...

[Amerasu]

They arrived today! Gorgeous artwork!

Just waiting on one more set and then I'll swap them out :)

[kosmopooch]

*jumping up & down* So glad they made it! I was getting worried!

[Amerasu]

The last set of cards arrived so I will sort tonight and send in the morning :)

[OriginalYouth]

Woohooo! I'm excited to see the returns...

[Amerasu]

They're really good OY! I've been impressed with all of them :)

[Amerasu]

And they're off! :)
