Any interest?

So I've been on a bit of a graphic novel kick lately and started thinking about how fun it would be to carve stamps from my favorites.

Would anyone else be interested in a graphic novel swap? I'm thinking a due date in July and keeping it small.

Ohhhh... I'm thinking Frank Miller. His art is practically screaming to be turned into a stamp.
Late July?
Pin-up or tame?

Let's say pin-up (because quite frankly, some of the best are a bit graphic).

Due in the mail to me by July 31?

Oh heavens, no. Pin-up is more like a warning that you may run into a little flesh when you get your cards. Some people out there are scared of boobs and such. The pin-up classification is there to protect their delicate sensibilities. Sometimes there are Adult swaps that are specifically for... erotic art. But Pin-ups... just a warning. No need to carve nekkid stuff, but don't be surprised if you get your package at the end of the swap with a few nudes.

nekkid stuff

I love that word, nekkid. AKA nekkidity.

I have lost my hair, only on my head and half of my legs (I was robbed on that one), but I hope to never lose my sense of humor. I do believe that with y'alls support and my sense of humor, it kept me sane and got me out of there in as a good a shape as I am in.

So, Pawpaw is laid off, you are probably off work. I think y'all need to come to Texas and stay with me while I am going through the whole next process. You only need to watch one 8 year old going on 20. I'll blow up the mattress and you let me know when you will be here, kay? I even crack myself up, I'm so funny. Hahahaha.

I don't think Texas would last thru both of us being on drugs, do you?? hahaha..

Oh, I no good any more with the lil ones... Hence, I'm good at being "Nanni".. Fill 'em full of chocolate, give them tons of hugs & kisses and send them home... haha.. Your 8 yr old might want references from my adult sons and I don't think, from their point of view, I was a good Mom... hehe.. They're constantly reminding me of them being whipped with a fly swatter, that handle end at that!! LOL

Of course, they've grown up to be two responsible young men, thanks to me, I might add!! And I remind them of it every chance I get... Oh and it's soooo much fun watching them having to deal with what I did back then... hehe... and knowing what else is on the Horizon for them... The dreaded "Teen Years"!! Awwwww, payback is sooooo sweet!!

Hugs!!
Nanni
ps: Mom ended up just shaving her head.. My sister bought her tons of scarves, hats and even a wig... Mom preferred alla natural :-)
Hang in there kiddo!!

No need for references, this did it. You're fired already. My mom used to think I was crazy when I would tell her not to give her sugar. She gave her cookies early in a visit once and realized it's true.

Don't water the gremlins. That's Cassie with sugar.

ps: Mom ended up just shaving her head..

I had to do that. Otherwise I'd look like the doll on Toy Story. Scary stuff.

I figured that would do it!! hahaha... That's what "Great Nanni's" do.. hehe.. Spoil 'em & give 'em everything they aren't allowed to have at home.... LOL

G'nite my friend... It's so good to have you back... I have missed you!

Take care and hibernate!! LOL
Your night-time buddy,

I went ahead and created the tracker. :) Pick your favorite graphic novel, any genre, any style and create a card.

It's a pin-up swap, which as LunaSea so perfectly explained, does not mean that you absolutely have to carve a pin-up image. It's more so that the participants know that there might be some nekkid people or other images that might not be appropriate for everyone.

The postmark date is July 31, 2009.

Tracker can be found here: http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gTrackerId=3316

he he

I love that word, nekkid

Another boxer once saw my trail name and in her head she read nekkid knitter--so, one day (maybe this summer) I will be doing a nekkid knitter carving and LTC. I think I can work out a spoof on my sig stamp.

I could see that being amazingly alluring! I hope I have time to carve the image in my head someday. I'm envisioning a woman, a chair, stiletto boots and a strategically placed ball of yarn.

Boy, that's a tracker waiting to happen. Someone said that Blooming Flowers could be a gassy thing. I can see it happening.
