Riiiight?!?!

You could layer different images and make a really cool visual as the final effect.

Guess what came in my mail today?!!! The Vision Boards!!!

They are just awesome. Everyone obviously put so much effort into them. Thank you so much, everybody!

clay 03-15-2019 10:11 AM

Just got my dreamy package of Vision Boards! I love them all!!!

Thank you to everyone...I am just smiling...ear to ear! Great visions made for me!!

candy_coated_bitch 03-15-2019 01:20 PM

I can't wait to get my vision boards!!! I have to wait for Jedi to come home with the mail though.

If the list remains how it stands now, I have finished my zentangles. I'm determined not to be late again. :|

WOW! Good job, CCB!

Sometimes, when we have a longer timeline, it's a challenge for me to NOT procrastinate, thinking oh I have time, then time slips up on me. I will have mine done & ready to go out next week, also!

Excited to see what yours came out like....I know they will be awesome!!

Thank you!!!

I seem to either run to one extreme or the other--I either have my projects done way early or I am scrambling at the last minute. If I let myself procrastinate I will.

I just got my vision boards!!!! Wow, everyone!!! I can tell the work each and every one of you put into them and I love them all! Thank you.

Got my vision boards!!! Thank you all so much. They are awesome!!!

Haven't opened my boards package yet. I'm sure they're all wonderful. I'm just a lil a lil too pissed right now to appreciate them.

DO NOT BEND.... does not mean shit to USPS here in Texas. They are too lazy to get out if their Jeep to put anything on the porch unless it's impossible .... physically impossible... and they've tried repeatedly.... to shove or bend or fold the item into the mailbox.

Vision board reactions:

1) Lyte- omg, you took things to the Next Level! Wow, gonna hang this in our bathroom! The pirate quote is outta this world! One note if you do this style again (which I love!!!)- don't wrap in tissue paper- some of it dried/glued itself onto it, though I've been able to scrape the majority of it off with the end of a scissors, thankfully! Thanks again, I will treasure it! It is truly exceptional. And how did you know I like quirky quotes? That pirate- can't say enough :pirate-steer:. Your work looks very professional!

2) Nanners- loved that it had my name on it! Love all the laughing faces! Love the pastel color scheme. Very uplifting!

3) CCB - Thank goodness you chose "explore my dark side"- I was dearly hoping that would be the case! Loved "no more basic" and "how she turned" - very nice work!

4) Gemme- Love the fat woman standing on her head- yaaaasss! Very inspiring and meaningful quotes. Great collaging. Thank you! I will be reading the quotes a lot this year! There are some real gems!

5) Georgiama'am- the beehive <3 !!! Loved the bath scene! Thanks so much!

6) Clay- Wow, that background is gorgeous! The colors are just stunning. Please post how you achieved that! I love a rainbow of colors! Love that you chose the fat body theme- meant a lot to me! Loved the main woman you chose too- super cool. Also, I always appreciate your writing to me on the back. Lovbe you more!

So, yeah, there was not one that I didn't love! I feel very inspired for 2019 and thank you all!

Lyte 03-15-2019 07:13 PM

Well hell.... :( So thought it was FULLY fully dry. Maybe a very slightly damp cloth? Hope no one's irrevocably spoiled. :(

I was able to get it all 100% off though I was nervous at first. I think doing the nudging at it with the scissors and then doing a damp cloth worked well because... now it's like new!

nycfem 03-15-2019 07:19 PM

Lyte, can you post your process? Cuz I want to do it too- it looks so perfect!

nycfem 03-15-2019 07:24 PM

My fave quotes from Gemme's that she made me:

"You were born with everything you need. You're not missing anything."

"You are not your thoughts. You are the calm awareness behind the noise in your mind."

"Your beliefs can be modified to lift you up. You are fully in control of your happiness."

"The past and the future don't exist anywhere except in your mind. Now is the only real moment."

"Your calling in life is to express who you already are. Unapologetically shine your light."

Where did you find that strip of quotes?

Lyte 03-15-2019 07:25 PM

Oh and... thank you for letting me know! I am in fact making two more of the same style.



And... I asked a mutual friend if they thought you'd find the quote amusing. I sure did. :p



And... I'm a big believer in the benefits of a good soak! <-- that's what Butches call is ... a soak... not a bath! :fastdraq: lol



And... lemme tell ya... it was a BITCH finding the right image to put behind it... I think that one worked. :pirate-steer: lol



Thanks again for letting me know re the tissue.

nyc.....that is the cold pressed water color paper....I sprayed the sheet with water, let it dry.

Then I mixed watercolors with water, painted the colors onto the watercolor paper.

I let that dry. then I spray with a mist of water again...and let it "run" a bit. While still damp I occasionally use salt crystals to sprinkle on it, let it dry & "melt" then hand rub the residue off...:).

I am so happy you love it! Enjoy. And I lovbe you more...:)

Bless Google, because I surely did not get those from a magazine. I loved it too and kept one for myself!

Lyte 03-17-2019 01:25 PM

Just opened my vision board envelope today and as I imagined, they're all wonderful! Thank you! :koolaid: Curious thing though... seven of eight chose ... be more social! The universe sometimes lacks subtlety! :p lol


Thanks again y'all. :)
