What was I thinking?

Look at this mess. Just look at it. What was I thinking?


Ha, actually that doesn't look so bad. That's AFTER we stamped and big shotted all 400 pieces. 400.
FOUR HUNDRED.

Did you catch the 'we' in that sentence? I stamped. The Hub actually did most of the big shotting.

That's right, I said big shotting. What else should I call it?

I'm VERY grateful for the big shotting help. I'd still be there doing it, and instead I got to do this...


And then that turned into this...


Just look! Aren't they beautiful? I'm so happy with how they turned out. They are just so golly gee pretty!
