I feel better about this set...now that I've had "a little" experience.....and I do hope that they "measure up" as I'm not all that confident in my abilities.....Hopefully, I'll get better at it

I would love to see all of your borders& extra's. It may give me some ideas. This was my first ever swap. It was a learning experince(sp). Have Maggie send all to me. I'm sure they are good.

I sent my set out yesterday. Hopefully they will arrive on time! I sure do hope everybody likes my submission. I sent along a picture in each bag so everyone would know what different designs I had in mind with the pieces I sent. This is my first swap, too and I'm finding it funny that we all feel very insecure about what we've created. I'm sure glad to know I'm not alone in that way!

Oh rella!! You don't have to go to all that trouble! Your set that you already sent were perfectly fine!!!!

No one should be insecure!! This is just supposed to be fun!!!

I'm just glad I will be able to get my EPCOT album done quickly!! My biggest problem is coming up with ideas. So now I don't have to come up with ideas. You guys already did it for me.

Thank you Maggie, you are SO KIND......I just got back and the package was sent. Since this is my 1st swap and I do just basic work in scrapbooking, I am somewhat insecure with my offerings. This was so much fun.....I don't want to stop, as a matter of fact, I keep looking at things regarding the other countries and say to myself "I should have chosen that one". Maybe we should make this a "yearly" project.....a different park or even resort each year......with MK , a different "land" could be done......See.......I don't want it to end, although, I am excited to see all the work/offerings in this swap....and THANK YOU again for hosting this swap. It's been a real pleasure.

Sorry, I know you are waiting on me. I got busy with my etsy store and ran out of time in Feb (Busy is good, crazy busy isn't). I've started them this weekend and should finish tomorrow. As I'm in IL too, so they shouldn't take long in the mail.

DracoMalloy and I were out scrapbooking at Archivers today! I didn't realize you were in Chicago. You could have come and worked on them with us!


I received the Japan set today!
