      My cards came while I was gone to Colorado over the weekend. I got one of Koishii’s (the griffin), and the phoenix print from daydreamer. So pretty! I must find or make some sort of book to keep ACEOs in now. You guys already know what the ones I got look like, but when I find a card-keeper, I’ll take a pic of them in it. πŸ˜€

      In other news, it’s been so bloody cold here, I’m having no trouble thinking ‘midwintery’ thoughts. >__>; I don’t think this theme will be any trouble for me, with all this delightful inspiration. D:

          This is a clever idea – http://www.etsy.com/listing/47842032/aceo-album-holds-200 …using adhesive dots to hold the sleeves to a page. I think I might try to find me some of those dots and a spiral-bound notebook with one of those covers you can draw on so I can make it more personal. Ribbon binding and a cardstock cover don’t really appeal to me, or I’d just buy one from her. >.>; Probably some of the pages would need to be taken out of a regular notebook, since the sleeves would make it too fat to close properly…hmm. *rubs chin* I will roll over to Hobby Lobby and investigate the matter tomorrow after work. Now that I’m home, it’s next to impossible for me to convince myself it’s a good idea to go back out in the cold. >.>;;

                Koishii, where’d you get those card envelopes with the sticky fold-over bit to keep them shut? All I could find at Hobby Lobby were the kind with the open end. o.o;

                actually, she didn’t have hers in a sleeve, so i put them in one. anyone who sent one without a sleeve i put them in one, just to protect them. i got them from http://www.clearbags.com

                    Sorry folks but I’m not going to make this trade. πŸ™ Between the stress of hubby not having a job and other family crap, I’m jut not up to doing anything creative. It’s all I can do to get up in the morning. πŸ™„

                    #826513

                    Off to mail my two cards. The third one just refused to cooperate and, well, time is up. πŸ™‚ Can’t wait to see what everybody created.

                    Hugs to Jasmine. Hope things look up soon.

                      Argh, I wrote “Midwinter’s Eve” on the backs instead of “Midwinter’s Night”!! *pulls out hair* :spank:

                      I knew I should have re-read the first post before I did something dumb (again).

                      I sent three. >.> They aren’t on cardstock, but it *is* my favorite kind of paper (Pentalic’s “Paper for Pens”)! Also, they make one large picture if placed next to each other…but can also be enjoyed separately (I hope, anyhow..hurrr).
