Re: Your Lack of
********************************************************************
So far, I am very disappointed in all of you this season. Yes, I'm fully aware it's only the first challenge. However, if that plastic tablecloth debacle is any indication of things to come we are all going to be in big trouble. I suggest you put more effort into coming up with an idea for your clothing designs, rather than being the next quirky, memorable personality of the show. And, yes Blayne, I am talking to you. And, you too, rocker chick. And, you too...."Suede". But, not you, boring girl with the glasses. Anyway, don't make me come down there.
Also, the company picnic scheduled for this Saturday has been cancelled.
So, I made this for a friend's daughter's 1st Birthday. The little frame is for a picture of her on her birthday. I'm really thrilled with how this turned out considering I had absolutely no idea where I was going with it when I sat down to begin working on it. It's funny how things evolve and grow when you give it time. I'm learning to be much more patient with my art and I'm finding that it's paying off. I'm thinking of making some of these for my Etsy Shop and then personalize for the customer.......What do you think?
I made this little patchwork can out of vintage wallpaper scraps and then wrapped some tulle around it. This poor little can had been sitting on my desk all primed and ready for embellishmet for the longest time. Fun project that can't go wrong. Now it holds my scissors. It's a happy little can these days.
I got these cute little German die cuts from Paper Tales. See.....I'm already looking ahead to Valentine's Day........
And, last but not least, another picture of work in progress on my desk. Just wanted to show that the desk has gotten a bit messier, yet it is nowhere near the disaster area it could be. I think that my new little organization system is working. That, and the fact that I am really trying to be good about throwing things and putting things away.
That's it for now. It was a busy day today and I need to get all the beauty sleep I can manage......Talk to you soon! Karin
