Xander ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2004? Don't think we've forgotten about you.
Well, you might not have known until you turned it over and saw that it was originally 3.99 for a "HANDMADE CARD". Damn them.
I do like that kind of stuff, though, and have been thinking of doing something like that under glass to hang on the wall, something three-dimensional. If that makes any sense. (I took an extra muscle relaxer today. I feel as funny as if I were stoned. Tomorrow I will be sorry I recorded all this funny for posterity.)
msbelle! Got your goodies just fine.
Thank you!!! And have seriously happy holidays!!!

Makes a lot of sense. As much as I like a good painting, I actually prefer multi-material art. Things that incorporate fabric, wood, paper, metal, whatever. Something you feel you could reach out and touch. Or walk around a little to get a different perspective. Let me know if you do do something like that, I'll pick your brains for my own projects.
1) I got cards from Sail and Bev, and I totally forgot to mention it! I suck. Thank you!

I used to know a woman who made this kind of art -- she used things like buttons, differently-textured papers, etc. It was very cool. I think the trick to those "multimedia" artworks is just having a good eye for shape and color and texture, etc., and if anyone has that kind of good eye, it's you, Deena.

Am I the only person to not be gifted with one of Sail's cards?

Yes! You made sense out of me. I'm happy. I will let you know. I've been mulling all kinds of things over. My eye doctor's office has a table with a raised lip. all over the top are all these cool miniatures, and buttons, all kinds of neat things, and the whole thing is covered with a polyurethane up to the lip of the outside edges. It's seriously cool and I want to do something like that, too. I just have to find or make the table. I'm a little stumped at that part.
Thank you, Steph. That's a lovely compliment.
Yes! You made sense out of me.
I did? Or Sail?
Um, actually, both of you did. I think I need to stop while I'm ahead (or behind).
Um, actually, both of you did.
Hee! I was just checking -- no need to worry.

No. At least, so far.
