Pam, do you shake your jar before using it? I think he mentioned that once, so now I shake it before using it - just in case there was any settling.

I shake the heck out of it. I just can't tell when it's done. Think I'm going to just burn the darned mess and have done with it.

In order to make sure it's done I do a two-step heat. I heat it up till I think it's done and let it cool, don't touch it then heat it again for just as long as the first time, then cool and then touch; if it feels like sand paper it's done; if it feels like beach sand heat it again.

I am finally finished. Waited for Stickles to dry, waited for paint to dry, waited for glue to dry. Good grief.
Going in tomorrow's mail.

Try doing 18 and going brain dead right around the middle of them.

If it makes you feel any better, I've had about a dozen ideas that haven't actually panned out into ATCs and I need to get my 18 done! I will be swapping on the 5th after we get back from the in-laws' house, and mailing on the 6th... make sure they are here by then and we're good.

Got them done and the box went out yesterday, but my brain is fried. (Yes, I do have one!)

I make no comments regarding anyone's brain for fear people will comment on mine! (or lack thereof)
