Creepy Cute Swap

I recently have been finding it hard to get inspired to do "crafty" things, so I have decided that it was time to get back into craft swaps on craftster.

I am just in the process on completing a "creepy cute" swap - I've received from my partner and here are the goodies I got below.


First up is these cute zombie and vampire cross-stitch magnets - too cute!
I received this wee hand painted coffin - it looks much better in real life - I didn't really capture it terribly well with this photo.
What's inside? A whole bunch of creepy cute dolls to add to my extensive collection.






My partner also made me this cross-stitch - I couldn't get a decent photo of the buttons but they are extremely cool with little brains and zombie ponies!
Finally, I received this cute little day of the dead style card.
My partner is yet to receive her package from me, I sent it in two parts with the second part just being sent today. I will hold off posting the picture of what I made until my partner receives her whole package.


For those of you that asked when I'll be macaroons - well I found that they are having a one evening course at Wellington High School on 16 May so I think I'll sign up for that and see how things go.


My 35 before 35 list now has a total of 27 tasks - so if anyone else has any ideas I can include just let me know.


I also have just sorted out some exciting travel plans for June, I'll tell you all more about them very soon.


Hope you're all having a super weekend xoxox

They're all gorgeous! But I'm in love with the vampire - he's very cool.

Great parcel , what a cool idea. I love those little fridge magnets.

I wish I'd done a 35 before 35 - I'm 35 now, but don't have a full year to do 36 before 36. How long are you allowing yourself? I guess I could do 40 before 40 (Sob, cry etc)
