Days 203 - 205 Working ahead for a change!

       I rarely have the luxury, even over the summer, to work ahead of the many challenges I participate in.  A few of them even post the ideas ahead.  Now the catch is I will have to remember to post them on the challenges that will come out the first of next week.  I have post-its all over my table telling me things not to forget.  I, afterall, know my limitations and memory is one of them.  The older I get, the more limiting it is.  And I never was very good.
     For day 203, I worked on Adele Bruno's challenge.  It is not a piece I am really excited about.  It is sort of bland in my opinion.
     I decided to work ahead and do the inchie for next week.  I know next week is going to get a bit hectic with school just around the corner.  the work was yellow.  I usually throw the word out to my brother and his first suggestion was "yellow submarine".  So that was that.  Day 204 is a yellow submarine!
      The next day, day 205, I jumped ahead again.  This is for Diane Clancy's challenge - use the tangles that begin with SPV.  I wanted something different.  Unique.  So I traced 3 ATCs into my journal and did the very same tangles on each. Then I colored each ATC.  One with cool, one neutral, one warm.  I like this piece very much.   It was also fun to do. 

      My project for the rest of today is to get ready to cut the clothes for my class room paperdolls.  I have a cut out for each child and I want them to be ready for decorating my class door.  I will show you when I get them cut - it takes awhile.  Have a great day and thanks for dropping by!

  4. Fun submarine. Looking forward to seeing your paperdolls. Also, I just recently found out that you can schedule posts to go live at a later date on blogspot. When you do a new post, look at the right and open up Schedule. Pick a date and time, hit done, and don't forget to hit publish. Not to worry, it won't be seen by anyone until the date and time you have selected. And, you can always go back in and edit. So, I have my cardmaking blog scheduled to automatically post every Thursday for three months ahead. It can be a real lifesaver.
