Diva..I have always wanted to learn how to do pottery. Once I buy my house, I plan on putting together a work area in the garage to do clay work. Can you share with us how you got started and what kind of training it took for you to be a clay artist? In fact, I would really love to hear how some of you got started in and mastered your crafts...

I don't throw pots.....I paint the greenware, then it's fired. So basically, I just paint designs on the pottery.....I've not been doing it very long.....Fall of 2003.....and I wouldn't consider myself a Master at all...it's just a hobby.....it's relaxing. Thanks for asking....<smile>

Rain...you can use the color green...or how about a green-theme as in environmentally conscious?...or how about your favorite green comic book hero or villain?...umm...you could relate green to spring and do something about blooms and blossoms...or how about st. paddy's day?...or a tribute to the band Green Day! :D

Just a few suggestions to maybe help kick-start something.

I got my package yesterday ... I had to walk through 12.5 inches of snow to my mailbox at the end of the block to get it, but it was totally worth it!

I love it!!! I couldn't post yesterday because my power is out at home. I came into the office this afternoon to recharge my phone and camping lantern because we have no idea when the power will be back up and running.

It was 58 degrees inside my house when I left today!

Anyway, back to what's really important, thank you all so much!!! It was wonderful to open and "oh & ah" over.

Love it all. :seeingstars:

Then I also thought maybe some one told her but she didn't start the thread so maybe she doesn't want to do it. (but that can not be cause she is too nice to be that way) and oh fuck, what if there was some behind the scenes falling out I don't know about. And I am also a highly sensitive person and so I didn't know what to do, so I stayed out of it. And now I am so sorry, and I am so glad you are here!!!!!!!!!!!:trampoline:

Beautiful Gemme, I appreciate your caring response. Of course, you are forgiven but it's really more about my insecurity than anything that requires an apology from you or anyone. I knew I could put my feelings out there whether valid or not simply because this is such a great group. Nothing like asking for love and getting it. Thanks, dear Gemme!

Then, she picks me up at Orlando airport Sunday AM at 5:30and takes me to her parents.:tango:

Okay penpals,
As Fate would l have it, :) I jetted to Orlando a day late after connections to Atlanta were canceled. At 5:30 Am I arrvived at baggage claim and watched the suitcases caravan around the metal conveyor until it stopped, the buzzer rang! My new Chaps Suitcase was not in site.

I went to Delta Baggage Counter and stood in line with chatting with 8 others. I was pleased to hear my suitcase had been found. It was safe but, at LAX, Los Angeles, CA. They promised to get it on the 10:30 AM flight and would deliver it to sherrie's parents and hour from Orlando.

I checked on line and noted it did not leave LAX until 3PM..

At 11PM, the driver with my suitcase arrived,.....the Muffifn, the sleeping doggie announcing his arrival and waking "The Parents" that go to bed like clockwork at 7PM.......


I have arrived into their lives,:balloon: baggage and all..:D:rrose:

So far, so good.:hangloose:

Diva, I sent out my green projects. I included 2 extra (12 in total) in case anyone else signs up, as I believe sign up isn't over until the 24th (unless I remembered that wrong). If you have space to include the extras in my package when you send to me, that'd be nifty. Oh, and lemme know when they arrive at your home! Green money included :fan:

I had mine all sealed up..Then remembered the $$$ not being included.. I was going to send it in a separate envelope when sherrie's Mom said let's just cut it open and we can tape it...

Dear Diva :cheerleader:
a wish for a happy birthday:birthday: and a story
so we went grocery shopping and we need to get 5 back for package
we forgot:|:|
so Corkey went back in to get some wings and, ya, forgot the 5:wtf:
I believe at that point we might have been overheard saying fuck it:angel:
so the package didn't go out:shocking:
then the next day I went to work and went to the store for the group home and got the 5. but then thought it is not going anywhere till monday (so my butt was not going to the post office on sat, I had to pass said post office to get back to group home)
so on monday it went in the mail box:happyjump:
now the next part is Arewns fault:|
I listened to her pod cast:cheesy:
and she said that taurus have to listen to their gut feelings (and more) etc in Feb
so last week when I was getting the package done I thought I should make Diva a card
then me being me I thought no (we won't go into my issues here)
then I remembered what Arwen said in her pod cast
so I made the card and put it in the package
and lo and behold, cause Corkey forgot to get the 5 the second time and Arwen's pod cast
you got a card on your birthday that isn't a birthday card
but is a card you got on your birthday
so it is a birthday card after all

I have an admission...In order to not hold up the project, I store bought my " Green "items...Nothing original, except "seeing Green"..and they can be reused..;)

I saw Ami's note above..I missed Arwen's podcast, but, I am Capricorn and I have NO idea what that means.

So, here goes...I was on vacation near Orlando with my girl, I was meeting a mother and father in law for the first time. She is extremely creative, as is my girl.

So, I deferred to a party store..Found something fun, something green, and a green crayon..Okay..it is lame, but, I made the DIVA DEADLINE., and would not be held accountable by the One
cuz, I know not mess with the Diva or she'll send the possee:pacman::cowboihorse::cowboihorse:

Ok...so I started my project right after I signed up. Did three pieces. Put it away and worked on the other site's craft (remind me not to do two at a time again..k?) then I did what I always do..procrastinated...which then translated into a problem when my back went out and the snow storm hit. I finished up the other site's...its ready to go out technically one business day late, on Monday(tomorrow) BUT... that gave me time to finish up this site's craft....

so I did what I always do..procrastinated...waited ...and then got busy..did two more of what I had planned for this session...

and then did the impossible...

I changed my mind...

I started an ENTIRELY different idea...!!!

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?????????


Because I am a glutten for punishment...

but..they are done and are so damned cute...

but I warn you..the card they are stuffed in are handwritten by me and are NOT pretty. My handwriting is awful and I am tired and my finger were cramping from the detailed work I had to do...so forgive the card and focus on the craft...

and I need to include this little story..

how many of you are fans of Tori Amos? Do you know her one song where her daddy is asking her "when are you going to love you as much as I do you?"

the idea came from that song....

all because I think everyone needs to hear that from someone...

and everyone needs to work on it...

this craft will help you to remember it, and keep it...

I only have a couple more to do! They're not as detailed as they would be if I hadn't also been traveling and doing other projects, etc and so forth, but I think they are cute.

I opted to take green to mean not only the color (lots of green paper, ya'll!) but as in organic...natural. You'll find some handmade paper in most of the pieces. All in all, I give myself a :clap:

Time for the next round of fun.

I will be wrangling this one (my first)

We will be doing something different this round.

There is no theme

People will sign up. There is an absolute limit of 10 plus me, due to cost to me. (sorry) sign up will close March 7. You will also have to send me your address if I do not have it. (please assume I don’t have it) Please do not sign up if you don’t think you will be able to finish, usually these projects are just about one’s own time and $. This round involves my $, so I have a opinion!

After sign ups I will be sending those 1o people a package containing the exact same materials! I will mail them out March 9th.

Everyone will have 3 weeks to complete their project (more info below)
Everyone will then mail the completed project back to me with the $5.00. It should be post marked by March 31st.

I will then sort and mail the packages out within 3 days.


The project
I thought it would be cool to send everyone the exact same materials and see what everyone does with them. I think that when it is all done, a lot of us are gonna look at what others did, and damn why didn’t I think of that LOL.

Here are the peramiders of the project:

everyone starts with their base card. It is black. You must use it. It is a triptyck card. (google it!) You CAN alter this card, but it must be your base. I gave you extra cards in case of mistakes and a template if needed.

you must use the materials included. You DO NOT have to use all of them. The materials are varied and can lend themselves to multiple directions.

You DO NOT have to make all your cards the same. You can, if you want, make them all different. If you want to make them for specific people, put their name on it.

The only materials you can use that are not included:
adhesives, glue, tape etc

pens, pencils, markers, pastels, charcoals, paints, watercolors, stenciling, and stamping

Here are the peramiders of the project:

everyone starts with their base card. It is black. You must use it. It is a triptyck card. (google it!) You CAN alter this card, but it must be your base. I gave you extra cards in case of mistakes and a template if needed.

you must use the materials included. You DO NOT have to use all of them. The materials are varied and can lend themselves to multiple directions.

You DO NOT have to make all your cards the same. You can, if you want, make them all different. If you want to make them for specific people, put their name on it.

The only materials you can use that are not included:
adhesives, glue, tape etc

pens, pencils, markers, pastels, charcoals, paints, watercolors, stenciling, and stamping



I have a question.....

If we can only use the cards You send us....and they're black....stamping won't show up....will it? And we can't use stuff we have in our own personal arsonals either?

Can You tell I'm stressing already? lol

Gemme
03-01-2010, 05:09 PM
So I googled.

Are you sending us each, 10 triptyck cards? Can we help defray the cost of that for you? I mean, I would have had to pay for supplies anyway...

No. Each of us gets ONE triptyck card. Ten participants allowed.

Don't stress. I see where Ami is going with this. The base card is black. We are free to use our own adhesives, glue, tape, pens, pencils, markers, pastels, charcoals, paints, watercolors, stenciling, and stamping stuff. I think she will include some other goodies for us to use, such as papers or cool things that we can use the stenciling or stamping on.

Also, gold and silver embossing looks FAB on a black surface. :thumbsup:

No worries! :)

Guess we'll have to stand~by and wait for Ami to come in here an' 'splain further..... :D

I'm sure you are NOT dumb, softness. From the sound of it, we get one card but I'm not sure what kind of goodies Ami is going to be sending out to us either. Perhaps the card is to be divided/cut/etc by us...perhaps she'll give us segments...anything is possible! I don't know the entire plan, and I may be wrong in how I interpreted what she posted, but I'm sure Ami will be in here either late tonight after work or tomorrow morning to give us more details.

I suggest we all RELAX and take a few breaths. This is going to be a very unique round and I'm very excited about it! :cheesy:

Time for the next round of fun.

I will be wrangling this one (my first)

We will be doing something different this round.

There is no theme

People will sign up. There is an absolute limit of 10 plus me, due to cost to me. (sorry) sign up will close March 7. You will also have to send me your address if I do not have it. (please assume I don’t have it) Please do not sign up if you don’t think you will be able to finish, usually these projects are just about one’s own time and $. This round involves my $, so I have a opinion!

After sign ups I will be sending those 1o people a package containing the exact same materials! I will mail them out March 9th.

Everyone will have 3 weeks to complete their project (more info below)
Everyone will then mail the completed project back to me with the $5.00. It should be post marked by March 31st.

I will then sort and mail the packages out within 3 days.


The project
I thought it would be cool to send everyone the exact same materials and see what everyone does with them. I think that when it is all done, a lot of us are gonna look at what others did, and damn why didn’t I think of that LOL.

Here are the peramiders of the project:

everyone starts with their base card. It is black. You must use it. It is a triptyck card. (google it!) You CAN alter this card, but it must be your base. I gave you extra cards in case of mistakes and a template if needed.

The only materials you can use that are not included:
adhesives, glue, tape etc

pens, pencils, markers, pastels, charcoals, paints, watercolors, stenciling, and stamping


To remind us of the fun we have ahead of us (with our multiple cards....I reread it)!

Evening everyone

We should each be making 10 cards to send out, 11 if you want one for yourself.

each person will be getting about 14 black cards. That way if there is a boo boo one has extras. I have 80 cut out so far!!!!!!! The girl in me loves to cut things out! I am also sending a template in case you have a total melt down and need to make more, just make them on black paper please.

You will be getting a selection of other papers, do dads, embelishments etc. dearest Diva, everything is not black. LOL
PLAN WELL LOL

the triptyck card is a tri fold card, you can alter this card, it just has to be your base. I am leaving them flat (not putting the two folds in) so that you can use it as you wish. The template included will show where the folds should go if you want to use them.

As per the beginning instructions and the list of what you can use, they are the type of things most of us would have some of. (markers, paints etc) You do not have to use every material in the package. You can use a few items or many. You can make them all different!

The idea here is what will we each create when we are all given the same materials?

The mail has come and there was no package from Rain. Sorry, folks.....

I am going to make the executive decision here: if I don't get it by Friday, I'm going to go ahead and mail out the ones I have, ok?





Sounds okay.

In the future, I do hope that those who sign up to participate for these rounds understands that it's not just their time, energy, effort and money that goes into these projects. It's everyone's and everyone else that got their stuff finished and sent on time are waiting to see the fruits of our labor! And that deadlines are just that....deadlines. If this were a job, what would they do if the presentation they were working on wasn't finished on time?

Yeah, I take this seriously. :police:

Okay, hopefully, everyone got their packages already. Miss Diva and I were talking about our soon-to-be-lovely projects and we had a question. I know we don't have to use each and every thing sent to us but in addition to the embellishments that we can add on our own, can we add paper as well? The way I read the instructions, it seemed as if we could use other papers, as long as a good portion of our materials came from Ami's package.

but now the both of you want to take advantage of my loving, caring, generous , faultless, ever suffering nature.
so I guess I will have to be nice
just to maintain my reputation

if you really must
listen to the call of the paper
or you are going to go over the edge of something
you can use 10% paper

of course you must say

Time for the next round of fun.

I will be wrangling this one (my first)

We will be doing something different this round.

There is no theme

People will sign up. There is an absolute limit of 10 plus me, due to cost to me. (sorry) sign up will close March 7. You will also have to send me your address if I do not have it. (please assume I don’t have it) Please do not sign up if you don’t think you will be able to finish, usually these projects are just about one’s own time and $. This round involves my $, so I have a opinion!

After sign ups I will be sending those 1o people a package containing the exact same materials! I will mail them out March 9th.

Everyone will have 3 weeks to complete their project (more info below)
Everyone will then mail the completed project back to me with the $5.00. It should be post marked by March 31st.

I will then sort and mail the packages out within 3 days.


The project
I thought it would be cool to send everyone the exact same materials and see what everyone does with them. I think that when it is all done, a lot of us are gonna look at what others did, and damn why didn’t I think of that LOL.

Here are the peramiders of the project:

everyone starts with their base card. It is black. You must use it. It is a triptyck card. (google it!) You CAN alter this card, but it must be your base. I gave you extra cards in case of mistakes and a template if needed.

you must use the materials included. You DO NOT have to use all of them. The materials are varied and can lend themselves to multiple directions.

You DO NOT have to make all your cards the same. You can, if you want, make them all different. If you want to make them for specific people, put their name on it.

The only materials you can use that are not included:
adhesives, glue, tape etc

pens, pencils, markers, pastels, charcoals, paints, watercolors, stenciling, and stamping


A gentle reminder of our rules from our sponsor, Ami! :thumbsup:

Now, improved, to include up to 10% new paper!

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

The top of the lid says "Suzie says ...."
the manager has more than a few names for me.
As Donna and I discussed this
I told her I am going to wear the button
and every time someone says something
I am going to say: "suzie says (fill in the blank)
