this month at pink pineapple the theme for the atc swap box is vintage. itll be rad ~ i know it. i hosted a atc swap online that was of the same theme and it turned out so perfect, that i thought all the locals {or even not locals for that matter} could rock out another vintage theme atc swap. plus i love the box. :-) spots are still open,,, 76-~598~2222

well, im still waiting on one or two for the atc and halloween swaps,,,, but i thought id share mine in the mean time :-) here are my kawaii atcs ~ in honor of the lovely missy nely

love, ally

i wanna start, first of all with an apology. im really, really sorry that i havent been very social as of late on the internet. i miss you. yes, you. im sorry i havent visited your blog, its got all ive got left in me {as far as time goes} to even post these quick post i try to squeeze into my daily life. im sorry. and im trying my very hardest to catch up,,, ill be by very soon {i hope}, but please dont lose faith in me. i do, love you!!! promise. and i miss telling you how rad you are. i really do.

with that being said, here is my second glitter atc swap. kinda, sorta, outta what i would call my *norm*, but i likey non the less. maybe because it does feel like i branched out a tad bit. by the way, all the glitter atcs have been shipped out. and those of you that will be picking your up at the store, ill be there tonight with the, for the alice swap. if you dont come by tonight, ill leave them in my box in the back. just ask one of the chickys for your package. :-)

love you, love ally*son

love, ally

so here are my atcs from the vintage atc swap. i used true vintage parts. really. the rummy cards are vintage as well as the milk caps. the rest just looks vintage, or kinda just goes with the flow,,, right?? while im on the subject ~ if you live close by and can think fast, or if you can create really fast and ship even faster, i need two last minute additions to the vintage atc swap. kinda a bummer, the first swap started with twelve and ended up with ten, the second looks as though its gonna be the same. there must be something to prevent this from happening, but i havent found it out yet. thank you to those that wanted to play along and that did. and thank you to those that got the atcs to me in a timely matter. i really appreciate it. again, if youd like to jump in this swap like right now,,, please email me at xoxoallyserrato@aol.com .have a great weekend!!!
love, ally

sign ups have begun for the *alice in wonderland* swap at pink. im pretty sure there are spots left,,, but i also know that the spots are filling up!!! so if youd like to play along,,,, 760*598*2222
love, ally*son

just for the heck of it ~ i made a few extra of these atcs and threw them up in my etsy shop. yeah. i have an etsy shop. i know, its been a while, but i dusted her off and threw these babies in there just for kicks. i plan on adding {dont we all}, but not gonna give any promise as to when. lets just say i hope its sooooooon!!! :-) anyway, here they are,,, *dream*, *create* and *rock!*. cant wait for tonight!!! its on ladies!!! like donkey kong!!!
love you, love, ally*son
