I’ve been making a set of birthday cards for a librarian friend over the weekend. I love doing these but they are quite time consuming. For six cards I stamped, coloured & cut around 70 elements, then pieced them together with glue and foam tape, finally accenting with Glossy Accents. Obviously I don’t include my time in the cost per card!
A friend said it was nice I’m getting orders for cards, but won’t doing more take the fun out of it for me? No! I love spending hours at my desk fiddling around with paper, scissors and glue 🙂
This week we’ve been doing a small art card and a page about a word that means something to us. Of course mine had to be “intention”. I’m finding my planner has two distinct styles of art and colourways in it, and that’s okay with me. I am enjoying the process and using the planner, so it’ a good thing.
This week’s challenge is about being brave, the quote was supplied. The writing in the white silhouette talks about some challenges this year, professional and personal, that I will need to be brave about. By being brave I move from the darkness into the light.
I am doing two online challanges this year; #colourmepositive which I have already shown a layout for, and DLP2016 (Documented Life Project) which I did a bit of last year. I will be showing work from DLP but not really talking about the process as such. It’s a class you pay for so the content is not mine to share. Here’s what I have done so far towards building my planner.
