back in the craft room...

ahhh...a new year, new swaps! i just signed up to host 5 new atcs swaps over at the shack. i must be crazy. not only am i hosting about a dozen, not counting my 6 month summer circle journal swap, i'm also in about a dozen more. geeze. what was i thinking? i got a jump on the a few that are coming up soon today. both are being hosted by chris. the first one is a cute critter theme. i have this cute set of stamps from my favorite things and i was looking at them the other day and thought it would be cute for this theme.

the other swap theme was feathered friends. i went through all my stamps that could fit this theme and nothing was really jumping out at me. then i found this cute stamp by maryse carrier (oh how i wish she was still making new stamps!) and i just wanted to use it.
