Watch me show off my adorable pet rat mood theme images a third time!

Under Details/Summary tags just in case not-really-anthropomorphic cartoon rats hit any phobias (etc); also "Awake" has a rat sitting in a coffee mug, as a warning for sanitation-related squicks.

Angry, Awake, ConfusedAn angry gray ratA Himalayan rat in a coffee mugA confused brown hooded rat

Determined, Devious, EnergeticA gray hooded rat is determinedA cream-colored Berkshire rat is deviousA hairless rat bouncing off the walls

Enthralled, Happy, IndescribableA red-eyed white rat is enthralled and looks like a heartA happy gray dumbo rat with a blazeA black hooded dumbo rat curled up

Nerdy, Okay, SadAn agouti rat with glassesRed-eyed-white Dumbo rat is okayA sad black rat with a white chest spot

Scared, Thoughtful, WorkingA scared apricot-colored ratA thoughtful charcoal gray ratA brown rat chewing a strip off of some paper


Plus two bonus moods:

I also made some chocolate dipped strawberries for the neighbors who plowed our sidewalk and most of our driveway, and I'm gearing up to work on some laundry next.

Sticker Mule

https://www.stickermule.com

Their prices may give you sticker shock at first but everywhere else I looked had a minimum that was 10x larger and cost 15 times as much. They provide clear guidelines, help if your first draft won't quite work, fast turnaround on proofs and printing, and free bottles of tasty hot sauce if your order is big enough. I love them a lot. If you want you can PM me your email address and I'll send a referral from my account to get us both discounts.

they also offer individual stickers with various treatments (glitter, holograph, transparetn), flat magnets, keychains, and T shirts among other things.

Thank you so much! I will almost certainly take you up on your referral offer, though it'll likely take a while; I'm a bit ahead of schedule for [community profile] moodthemeinayear, but I still expect it to be some months before I finish all 132 moods. And honestly, glancing at the sticker sheet minimum, it doesn't seem terrible at the moment. Especially if they let me put two sheets worth of stickers on a single 8.5"x11" sheet...

Hello! It's been about half a year (which is honestly six months less than I was planning for on the outside), but I think I'm ready to get some stickers printed if your offer is still good?

Saaaaame 😍🐭 I had pet rats for a while, which is what originally inspired me to want to make a pet rat mood theme. I'm having so much fun now that I'm finally be doing it!

After my planned writing time got taken over by illness I thought I might have to default on a ficathon, but I managed to get the story done! I wanted to expand it much more than I managed to, but it is done. Hopefully my recipient will enjoy it.

I'm glad you were able to finish! I've done some exchange events before and I know sometimes they can be a lot of pressure. Fun but also pressure.

I totally went overboard (the requirements were 100x100 pixels, I went for a full scale ink and watercolour painting), but the prompt was su much fun! It did take a while though.

I have been keeping up to a daily word count so far.And I'm juggling a few different wips art wise. The studio I'm a part of is having a show with a tarot card theme and I'm doing one based off "the lovers". I'm thinking a bit of a inspiration from the painting "the Kiss" by Gustav Klimnt. (( at least in some color scheme and some repeating shapes.)) First time I've tried to emulate a artists style somewhat so we'll see how this goes.

I'm also going to a art lecture this week. Looking forward to that.

Yay for art lecture! I am also envious of your daily word count. I am very far off a habit like that - me trying writing is very new.

It's not always easy to get the daily word count I'll be honest. Though using 4 the words to make writing a game at least has helped me write more. And it still feels like some sort of process that way even if I don't get as many words written.

After some discussion I now have three (3) readers who want to read the novel after I'm done so that means that I need to actually finish it. Eeek.

It also means that I will need to actually type up what I've written long-hand, and that's not really something I've been looking forward to. I mean I've been working on it, but I also don't want to work more on it...

On the plus side, typing up from longhand is a great way to do some editing.

Good luck with novel stuff! I believe in you!

I did more quilting practice! I finished the 2 wonky 9-patch blocks into fully quilted and bound... cat beds. I'm about to start the binding on the teddy bear quilt. Then, on to cutting squares for the memory quilt!

Oh and I also created a resume. I need to start job-hunting earlier than I had expected. I know it's gonna be okay, but yikes anyway.
