I'm a lil freaked out... lil nervous... this turned out to be more complicated than I expected... my own doing … as always! :seeingstars: lol

I'm also a little bit at a freaking out stage but I have faith my mess will somehow come together!

That very thought has made its way into a couple of my boards! lol :p

Technically … that's the plan. :sunglass:

Ohh... and... I'm taking this Friday off to work on them! It's as good an excuse as any for a day off! :koolaid:

I'm trying, I'm trying! I know each of the words phrases and pictures belongs to one of you they just haven't totally organized themselves out of the pile yet.

No pressure here, just a gentle reminder that the "in Nanner's hands" date is Saturday, March 2nd, with a grace period of one week ending Saturday, March 9th.

How is everyone doing?

I'd like to mention that 3 people have gotten their projects to me, and you 3 absolutely nailed it....I am so impressed with the work that is coming in!!

NYCfem, I believe that this is the best work I have ever seen from you!
Clay, very nice work, I like the back sides too, they are very special.
Butchie's Mabel, you did a wonderful job on your first project with us, and i do hope you'll continue to participate!

I'm kind of in the same place CCB is in. I have a lot of pictures but no real plans for most of them. I have the day off Monday and I'm going to try to focus on it then.

Yeah, I'm struggling a little bit but plan on taking some time this weekend to try and get something going.

Damn you people are fast! :koolaid: Iol

Ok, I'm officially getting into trouble with this. Those of you who completed the project easily, do you have any advice???

Thanks, clay. That's basically what I'm doing but the words and images just aren't gelling or making it to the boards yet. I will keep at it.

For me it's been difficultcoming up with pictures. The words were easy, I have all kinds of bits of chopped up word pieces but pictures – what a stymie. Anyhow I think I've finally have enough of both to pull something together here. I'm separating the cut outs into piles now, one for each person, and starting assembly tomorrow.

Mums is right! I took last Friday off to work on em … and then Saturday too... and then Sunday too... I'm still not done! lol :blink:

I started to get overwhelmed with TOO MANY OPTIONS for representations of each person's vision … narrow... narrow... narrow... down the photo options. And def start marrying pics to persons and/or to whatever they're being attached. :)

What?! I didn't know there was a tag-team option! :p

That's exactly where I am in this project. I didn't get as far as I wanted today, but I do have separate piles now, and I think I have enough pieces.

I'm still having a hard time with images. I don't have a printer so I can't print them up. It's like the luck of the draw if I find an appropriate image. My pieces might be more like word art even though it's a "vision" board.

My printer is fine for black and white but not the best for color. I could have went to the library, used one of their computers, copiers, printers but that could get kind of spendy. We got a bit of a break in the weather so I was able to make it to a secondhand store where they sell magazines for 10 cents a piece. Our libraries sell books and magazines pulled from circulation but the one closest was closed due to poor weather. The main library was open but it's a bit hilly to get there, J's car is a 4 cylinder without a lot of oomph. Most people probably have most of their cut outs by now, but for next time if this project or a similar one comes up it's something to think about. Anyhow I have my images cut, sorted, mapped out, and I'm in the sticking them to the background stage part of the process. I'm having a lot of fun with this project. :)

I think it helps to think outside the box. There were some people where I had the same interests as them and found a plethora of items for their vision board, and then there were a few who I struggled with. I had this "aha" moment for one where I realized I didn't need to be so concrete about finding an exact image and instead could think more abstractly while combining images and words.

FYI
 

Who? I'm still working on them and I might not have finished their's yet.

Yes, I haven't glued any of my boards yet so I'd rather not make an extra I don't need to.

Me either. No hard feelings, but ... I'd rather not make one if I'm just going to get it sent back to me.

Yes. So if you haven’t made hers you can refrain if you wish. Those that have can decide how to handle it how they wish.

Nanners, please send the one I made for her to Clay because they had very similar themes. I wish to gift it to Clay. Thank you.

nanners I tried to send you a private message but system won't let me it says your mailbox is too full.

Yes, my PM box is full. My apologies, I need to pay my membership but am having a hard time coming up with the $100...so please email me at nanners45@msn.com.

I'm finishing mine up today and should have them in the mail tomorrow. Now that most of mine are done, stepping back and taking a look, I see they've turned out more like busy collage work than the examples of vision boards I'm seeing online. But I will meet deadline so there's that.
