Pyrate Sketchbooks

[Red-Handed Jill]

Just sent Matusalem's book and box off to Sophia.

[Kate Souris]

So we were at Ashville Viking Festival this weekend with some friends and their teenager got bored....so I handed him one of the sketchbooks and let him loose....and its just about finished. Will mail this week.

[Lady Cassandra Seahawke]

ok so the books are back in rotation?

[Pew]

They should be mailed out by tomorrow, or the weekend at the latest....

[withoutaname]

well about 24 hours after my last post, i got really sick with the flu. basically, for 2 weeks (and catch up this week) I have been on automatic, work, home, sleep, repeat. It was one of the worst flu's I ever had. In fact, I still am coughing up my left lung every morning.

I am sorry I have totally dropped the ball.

I am finishing Ransom's book this weekend will send on Monday to Callenish.

[Kate Souris]

Michael put a sketchbook in the mail to pyrateleather today. He was expecting it to be late, as I pm'ed him about it early in the week.

[Red-Handed Jill]

I just received Pew's book from Patt.

And isn't PEW's sketchbook fulla all kinds of good stuff.?....

I forgot to take some pictures ..... well I tried to start a sketchbook project in the Steampunk Forum.... and I figured maybe some pictures would enthuse them..... Show them what we can do, and what could be done.....

When Ransom talks about "cat wrangling" here..... Dang.... all of the books except two of them are lost in the Steampunk sketchbook experiment...... (I shouldda known better... they tried a journal project, and it got lost within the second post (three ) times....)

Maybe I'm just being cranky.... (and this may be better posted in the Steampunk thread...) BUT.... for whatever reason....

BUT.... well I've been slightly screwed over by some SCAdians.... not badly by Civil War Reenactors.... Steampunks are way too childish (not alla them... but way too many are just teenagers) But Pyrates..... it ain't happened yet.....

Why are a buncha cutthroat's, scallywags nere-do-wells .... more trustworthy than anyone else.....

Ain't rum nice..... ?

I was about to just not post this.... way to disjointed.... (that happens when I've been drinking... go figure... )

I'm not going to bother editing it... sure, it won't get me an A in English 1-A.... and it's not fully figured out.... so read between the lines.... or whatever..... There is a chunka something there....but being happily drunk... I ain't going back to look for it.....

[Ransom]

"Cause we keep to the code!

And them as don't, we throw overboard.......

[Lady Cassandra Seahawke]

So have I been skipped? sharpening m'cutlass wait'n for an answer....

I sent Matusalem's book off to Sophia at the end of last month. I just have Pew's.

[pyrateleather]

I received Captain Sophia's book from Kate last week.

[Lady Cassandra Seahawke]

Callenish... Patrick's Book received

[Ransom]

Score!...and artist's tip of the month.

A local stamp/scrapbook store is going out of business here, and I got a bunch of pyrate themed papers and stickers for 35% off. Which brings me to the reason for this post...

I mentioned to a friend that I scan some of the papers I buy, so if I need more than one sheet to do a project, or it's a design I really like and would use over and over again, I can just print me out another one. Her reaction was a wide-eyed "Duh!" moment, then she said, "OMG, why didn't I think of that?"

Now, before I get sued for copyright infringement, I don't print them out to resell!

But it sure is nice when you need just one more little square of that particular pattern, and you can print it off to finish a project. Very handy!

I figured this was a common practice, but after getting the same reaction two more times, I decided to pass the tip on to all of you working on the journals/PTC cards, who may be using special papers. Don't have a scanner? Take it to a copy place and run off a few.

Not exactly the same.... And . I'm not sure if I have the file...

Rum is good stuff.... happily drunk one afternoon, I looked up..... well I had nailed a chunk of cloth over the back door so I wouldn't get rained upon.... but... a buncha leaves fell upon it... and the way the light shinned through it.... so I took a digi-cam photo if it........then made a Mothers Day Card outta it....

But

AWh heck... if I ain't deleted the file.. (and can find it..) I'll send it to you..... it does make a pretty background......

or something like that....

[Guest]

Yeah... most of wot I just typed don't make any sense....

but I kinda think you can figgure it out.....

[Red-Handed Jill]

I'm sending Pew's book out today.

[withoutaname]

I currently have no books, and I am about to leave town for Utah until July 3, and will not have access to my mail. I am worried about falling behind in the exchange.

BTW, any pirates in the great salt lake out there?
