Contests and Challenges..

I've been meaning to post a few things I've done in the last few weeks,

 but with all the stuff I've signed up for..it's been a little busy.

The good news is I'm done! 

Done volunteering that is.At least for a few months.I will be back again for the fair next year but with the closure of our school that means I don't have anything on the go.

So here are a few things I've been working on in between..

I recently volunteered to do a cake and 100 cupcakes for a friend..thats right 100 cupcakes.At first I thought..no problem but it took over 6 hours to decorate them!That was with help!

The effort was worth it though eveyone was impressed.

Let me know what you think..

Hopefully she has some better pictures and I can post them when she does.

Painting has always been a passion of mine.I love it and I finally  bought some new canvases to do some painting.

I have a bunch more but need to do some photos....I love them and have a hard time giving them away...

AS you all know I was lucky to beome part of Cropchocolates DT this term.I'll show you those projects as they are released but for now I can show you a few of the Focus Group challenges and the weekly challenges on CC..

This is my favourite one so far.

The challenge for this one was

Pop Color

 A home decor project or altered item using neutrals and one main focal color.

I just didn't have the heart to destroy a real book so I made one. 

 

 

 

Last but not least,my last project of the day.

I still need to take a picture to put in it but I have an idea in mind.

Patterns Galore!

 Its summer, a time of freedom and less restriction. For this week's challenge, use 3 patterned papers any way you want to. Let your creativity shine like that summer sun and layer up those patterned papers on a card, layout, an altered project --whatever your creative heart desires.

Well that's just a little bit of what I've been up to..I'll try to update a bit more often...

have a great day!
