..:: Oh! Crafty Me ::..

Happy 4th of July ^_^

I hope the weather Isn't too hot were you live so you can enjoy a nice BBQ :), this is just a quick post to show you the goodies I mentioned in my previous post.

My hands are sore :(, I was making buttons for some promos I need to ship and my fingers started hurting a lot, I have copper allergy (among other metal allergies)and it sucks because the brooches of the pins are made with this material so I always have to suffer when I make them lol, It's ok because I love making buttons, but this time my hands got all red and it hurt a lot :( don't know why this time was much worse than the others, Anyway

Here are the goodies I got in the mail


This is a closed up of the KMS - Animal Kingdom - Swap, I really liked all the extras I got,lots of loose memos, stickers,candy and this cute HK, Thanks a Bunch!!


Ohh and this bag is functioning as my provisional camera case lol it's the perfect size made of soft canvas fabric:) I got it in the - Bag of Treats Swap-


My partner for the CRAFT Matchbox Swap send me the coolest materials, I really liked the cherry and polka dot fabric, she made the card herself :), Thanks a Bunch for all the goodies.



And finally this are the FQ's I sent to Erin, we are trading Fabrics, I hope she gets them soon.

Well that's all, I'm making stuffed rice ball today ^_^ so I have to be going, Have lots of fun! and how me all your pictures ♥

Have a nice day!

Happy Monday ^_^

I hope you all enjoyed your weekend, over here it was Hot- Hot but we manage to cool us down with lots of ice cream, the pool and water balloons :) so it was fun.

I'm happy because I got the most wonderful snail mail on Friday, I Received my Kawaii Matchbox Swap and my Craft Matchbox Swap, love those two a lot and the lovely Mug I ordered arrived! Can't wait to show you the lovely pics.

In other news, I ordered more fabric form the distributor again ^_^ I couldn't resist I got this wonderful catalog with the new fabrics and they were all so beautiful that I had to get some, can't wait to them to arrive.

And speaking of nice fabrics here are some pictures of the bolts I got, I had to cut pieces for myself before they're all gone. :) I'm using the small polka dot blue one to make some pincushion surprises for the - Lucky Parcels Swap-


Ohh and I love this one, they had it on blue but It all sold out, I placed a pre-order so I hope they re-stock on the blue one soon, I was so luck to grab the red bolt :).


I love fruity fabric , this one reminds me of a nice spring- summer picnic :) so Yummy! I would love to make an apron or some place mats with it.


I got these FQ at Joann's, I saw this same fabric at Flickr but in Pink, I searched for it but I only found this blue one, too bad they only had 2 FQ :( and they don't sell it by the yard, and I wanted a whole yard, I love the Leafy Plant Print.


And Finally some Kawaii eye candy :) I received this from Xandra all they way form The Netherlands she sold them to me, Thanks a bunch this sticker sack is really hard to find it's from Q-lia form their Smile Pocket line a super special addition to my Kawaii Collection. More pictures of this sticker sack at my Flickr here


Have a nice day!

Today seems to be cooler than Yesterday and that's great news for me, because I hate sewing when It's hot I always get all sweetie eww, I was sewing late at night and I'm almost done with the motorcycle bag, and let me say it's coming along great, Now I'm sewing the inner pockets and the straps and then star cutting the other bag, they're cute big and heavy and my arms hurt a bit for lifting it. I also made a precious pin cushion for the ::: Bag of Treats :: Swap I'm preparing, photos of that one soon ;).

Anyway here is what I'm sending to the :CRAFT Matchbox Swap: the theme for this month is - Fruity Craft Supplies-, as soon as I read the theme title i knew I had to join in because I love fruits.



I love apples and I couldn't pass out the opportunity to decorate the matchbox with juicy colorful apples :), this time I didn't paint the box just cover it with a pattern I printed.



Fabrics, ribbon, trims,beads,buttons,embroidery floss, a strawberry pincushion and other embellishments are in this little pack , I hope my partner likes it. I had lots of fun putting all these items together.


This is another pack I sent to moofin from flickr, this is just a peak because I added more things to the swap.

Today I'm gonna try and finish the motorcycle bag and another small bag I'm doing for a the Bag of treats swap :), I already cut the pieces form one of my favorite Japanese fabrics :), it's going to look so pretty. Well take Care and Enjoy the weather!
