I got my package today, too! Honestly, I'm a little overwhelmed. I will have to meditate on these objects and hope for some inspiration to come by.

"When I first received everything and laid it all out, I felt super nervous. I remember I had that same feeling when Amiyesiam did this project way back! It is scary not to be in control and easy to feel overwhelmed! There are new textures and objects that I am not used to working with, so I think, “Should I have signed up for this!” *** Rest assured: It gets better and ends up actually being a ton of fun!

Madness!!! You both have good ideas here. What I did with ami's project was to lay everything out in front of me and to group like things together, whatever my version of 'like' was....color, 'type' of supply, stuff I already use/am familiar with versus the non-familiar, etc. That brought it down from a smorgasbord buffet to plate sized portions, so to speak, and I was able to see more clearly what items I would be using versus what I would not. Remember, you don't have to use everything. Only 25% of each of your pieces need to be from these supplies. More is fine, of course, but not less. You can do any sized pieces as long as it's no larger than 5x7. If you choose to use one of the papers as the background, that's a big portion of the piece already. The important thing is not to overthink things and to try to look at things in new ways. You have some items that you only have one of and, if you make identical pieces, that would be hard to do so you have to think about how to replicate that piece. You could make copies of it with a printer/scanner or use the first item as a template for the other pieces and color it in the same. Some items I sent out were not designed to make it into the final pieces but to be used as tools to help you with techniques and to give you ideas. Some things will wind up on the cutting floor and that's okay. Not everything will work and that's okay. I want you to think but no so much that your brain hurts. Go with whatever attracts you and have fun. This is an awesome group of participants and I know this is going to be crazy creative in the end. |

Good to see you Purepisces!
Totally Halloween Jen! I am going to work soon. I have 7 zip lock bags and Gemmes bag of goodies. I am going to divide stuff up how I think/want them to go together and put stuff in the 7 bags. This is step one. Step two comes later. Maybe step two will be assign each bag a name!

It sounds like you all are having a great time with this, wishing I had had the bandwidth to participate in this because it sounds fun.

I just received my twinchies project.. and wow.. I think this is my favourite thus far.. so much colour and creativity from everyone!! I love it .. and think this is going to end up framed in my art room!! Thank you everyone!
Gemme, still havent receive the envelope, would you mind tracking it please, I can handle receiving it last minute but I would need to plan for it: ie actually take a much needed night off work. Just trying to balance with moving at the same time. So please let me know.. thanks!

I apologize for not seeing the message in time to send my address for the craft project. I was really looking forward to it but I came down with pneumonia and I was not in any condition to be online or even out of bed. Now that I have gone through a round of antibiotics I am finally starting to feel a little more like myself. I feel awful for missing out though and I have to admit my feelings are hurt that everyone thought the worst of me It was not intentional at all.

Per the rules posted, you will be able to participate in future projects, but not until November. I do hope that you'll sign up again. I'd love to see what you come up with. I'm glad you are feeling better now. |

3 down 4 to go
I spent the afternoon crafting and now have three of the seven projects complete. Yahoo! An added challenge was the fact I can't find any of my adhesive tape or glue except glue stick. When I'm next out and about, I'll stop at a craft store and pick some better adhesive stuff up.
