So I know that the spring project is still going on but I am about to do a live in assignment for a week and don't know how long it will be till I can get back on.

Sooooo....This round is entitled Words. Inspired by this quote:

"Words! Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, and vivid, and cruel! One could not escape from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them! They seemed to be able to give a plastic form to formless things, and to have a music of their own as sweet as that of viol or of lute. Mere words! Was there anything so real as words?" -The picture of Dorian Gray(Oscar Wilde)

What do words mean to you? What words define you? What words do you wish never existed? Let your words run amok!

Pixie made you an awesome list below, but that's not ALL of the topics we've done. We started this at the dash a looooooong time ago, so I wouldn't worry too much about replicating a theme. Try to keep all of us in mind when deciding on your parameters. Some of us have more limited incomes and if there are too many restrictions or requirements, it can be tedious and no longer fun. The whole purpose of doing the craft rounds is for fun, so have fun coming up with a theme and help us to have fun doing them. :)

It seems I have failed miserably in managing my time as of late. School and life have interrupted my craft project time, time and time again. I will get them sent to Tommi as soon as I have them completed. Sorry for once again causing a delay in the process, Tommi, I will send enough postage to have them sent out separately if need be, please let me know. I honestly am not this bad at managing my time...

Diva 03-22-2011 06:06 AM

I've decided I can do this because Pixie lives here in Austin!!!! What was I thinking? Her close proximity will help me tons! And I have a hard time not participating! Love these projects! (And besides....I'm 2/3 finished with the 3 commissioned pieces! Weeee!!)

This is to be creative fun, so don't be so hard on yourself.
It's just part of being alive. Welcome to the real world, S'all I can say.

Life happens on more than one page at a time for some, more than others. I PM'd you my address, and , not to worry. We extended the time anyway. Just include the usual $5.oo. Unless it's going to be like in mid April or so

Gemme 03-25-2011 08:09 PM

Tommi, my package is on its way to you, sans money. I had your correct address, so it's not that. I tried to fit it all into one of those small box 'if it fits, it ships' boxes last night, but it. was. just. not. fitting.

So, I left it all tucked sideways in the box and left it to deal with today on my lunch break. Well, between leaving the house and arriving at work, I managed to lose the envelope that had a note for you and the $$ in it too.

Soooo....another one will be on its way to you tomorrow to cover the shipping.

Bah.

:rant:

For the rest of you, I got a spectacular idea while driving home from work tonight for pure's Words theme. Yes, it's true. I've actually known what it is that I wanted to do with these projects for THREE projects now. In a ROW.

Things tend to happen in threes, you know.

:eyebat:

I'm considering doing the Pecan Street Fall Festival (Sept. 24-25). I'm a little nervous....it'd be my first show. And it's juried. I've sent in 4 shots of my work (Spring, TOO!, Deal, Split and MIA), so we'll see!!!

Wish me luck!

Wonderful, absolutely wonderful; Wait till you all get a chance to see them.

. (f)

Corkey and amiyesiam "Spring's" also arrived and are decorating my dining table. What a wonderful collection.. All of them beautiful, and unique.


Expecting the other's Soon, so I can mail them out next Saturday.

Yes Corkey, having Dyscalculia is really interesting. .

It affects between 3 to 6% of the population, and I have licked it most of the time. My return address mistake being one of the common ones. I see the correct numbers, but they are actually incorrect. Earning two Master's Degrees was really interesting. One of them being an M.S. in Medical Radiation Physics, and one, MPH, Public Health Adminstration was a real challenge. Using math at work is done by computer's, and has sum checks,and all data is reviewed by a para-legal program analyst. Thank God. Most of what I write is narrative and legal, not involving numbers. Phew.

So, the little things in life are easy to screw up.

Hope you and ami have an amazing and great weekend and make more fun things together.
