Randomness Day

Hey everyone. It's Swap Update Day. I don't have a lot of swaps to share so I'm going to add some extra goodies at the end of this post. Onto the swaps!

I shared some of my drawings last week and this week I received drawings from one of those swaps.

These are the drawings I received for a 30 minute drawing swap. They are all really neat. I love the nature theme she chose.

Next I will show a sneak peak of something I am making for a huge Craftster swap I'm in.

I joined a swap on Craftster where you make your partner 13 things that they can open everyday for the 13 Days of Halloween. This is the first thing I've made for it. This is not completed yet. My partner for the swap loves candy corn so a lot of the things I've come up with for this swap will be candy corn themed. I'm not going to share everything I make for this swap until she gets them and opens them all. I may share some teasers though as I make everything.

That's all I have that's swap related for this week. I do have a couple more things I'd like to share though. First I'll start with something I got at Lily Dale this past Saturday.

When I was in Lily Dale, they were having a sale that had crafts and plants. I picked up this adorable lion amigurumi. I love amigurumis and have wanted one for a long time. This is his cute little face and his side.

Also, you should know by now that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge had a baby boy yesterday. Today, we all got our first glimpse at Baby Cambridge. From the little bit of him that I saw, he is adorable. Here is a picture of the new happy family:

They look so happy. I can't wait to see how this little guy grows up and maybe even one day see him become king. First I'd like to find out what his name is. My bets on George. It's a very traditional name and is the name of his great-great grandfather.

To close up for the day, I'm going to share a photo of my baby.
