Busy, Busy, Busy

I have hooked up with Swap-bot for something different in the way of swaps. Of course the first swaps I joined are dragon themed….ATC’s (artist trading cards). I hadn’t made any ATC’s before but hey, dragons! Dragons always works for me so I jumped in feet first. I am in two different swaps. Dragon love is one. In this one I have two swap partners and will make each of them two ATC’s. The second one is a fantasy creature swap…anything to do with dragons, gnomes, elves, fairy and so on. Of course these will be dragons also. I will make one dragon card and one transfer/embellished card for my two partners in this one. The transfer cards are in the process right now but I thought I would share the Dragon Eye cards I have completed.

I am also in a geometric cane swap through Polymer Clay Central and have my five groups finished. I am going to make a few more to send in case the swapmeister has some drop outs. She can fill the spots with mine.

I also have a …well either a necklace or bracelet (depends on how many cane slices I have) using a chain maille weave and taking cane slices from the swap canes (from my leftover sections) attaching them using the rings I am using for the weave. I am already to start, I just need to sit down with the optivisor and my tools. The cane slices are all drilled awaiting their rings.

Nothing like having five or more projects going at once. Thats what makes life so fun.

You are making me tired! I am bogged down in accounting that I didn’t keep up with last year. (My yearly resolution -do better) But am taking time to go play with Kathy Davis and another artistic friend and finish a ‘long time no complete’ project.

accounting as in dealing with numbers?? ewwwwwwwwww!!

I wish I had someone close here that wants to play with clay with me. I got my first set of cards off in the mail today and have completed the transfer cards. Heck I even started the cane slice bracelet…at least got the rings split so I can start weaving.
