Summer Olympics 2012

  This was a tough one.  I really wanted it to be special and "perfect", especially after the gorgeous one on the Diva's site by Rho Densmore - the guest challenger.  I am getting a bit braver and not looking at the other entries until I at least have my idea.  Now I can go look as much as I want.
     I chose a larger size, 8 x 10.  I also cut some sports figures with my Cricut to use as silhouettes to trace around.  Overall, I am very pleased with this.  Okay, not perfect, but special.

  I also want to add a link to my post about my calendar and organizer.  I know I mentioned this on my post on the Bright Owl's recent dare, but I wanted to make sure that I had shown this to whoever had asked me about them.  I am sorry to repeat myself.  
     Hope you have a great day and a wonderful week.  Thanks for any comments you care to share.

  5. This is so detailed and I really like the way the silhouettes stand out from the tangles. It's a great use of negative space.

  15. Boy! You outdid yourself. Your did some of the more difficult tangles we have had in the last month or so. It is neat how your diver is diving into "golven" I forget the name of the interlocking one you have done, but I found it very hard!
