I'm still having a hard time with images. I don't have a printer so I can't print them up. It's like the luck of the draw if I find an appropriate image. My pieces might be more like word art even though it's a "vision" board.

FireSignFemme · 02-20-2019, 01:09 PM

My printer is fine for black and white but not the best for color. I could have went to the library, used one of their computers, copiers, printers but that could get kind of spendy. We got a bit of a break in the weather so I was able to make it to a secondhand store where they sell magazines for 10 cents a piece. Our libraries sell books and magazines pulled from circulation but the one closest was closed due to poor weather. The main library was open but it's a bit hilly to get there, J's car is a 4 cylinder without a lot of oomph. Most people probably have most of their cut outs by now, but for next time if this project or a similar one comes up it's something to think about. Anyhow I have my images cut, sorted, mapped out, and I'm in the sticking them to the background stage part of the process. I'm having a lot of fun with this project.

I think it helps to think outside the box. There were some people where I had the same interests as them and found a plethora of items for their vision board, and then there were a few who I struggled with. I had this "aha" moment for one where I realized I didn't need to be so concrete about finding an exact image and instead could think more abstractly while combining images and words.

For those of us who are still plugging away, here are some images of vision boards for inspiration. There are a ton of interpretations for a lot of the same categories so there's plenty of options to go 'round.

One of our participants will not be able to receive her visions.....do you each want your piece made for her, back?

PM nan privately if so, please! Thanks

FireSignFemme · 02-22-2019, 06:16 AM

Who? I'm still working on them and I might not have finished their's yet.

candy_coated_bitch · 02-22-2019, 08:22 AM

Yes, I haven't glued any of my boards yet so I'd rather not make an extra I don't need to.

Me either. No hard feelings, but ... I'd rather not make one if I'm just going to get it sent back to me.

Gemme · 02-22-2019, 08:51 PM

Ditto.

Plus she'll need to note her time out for 6 months.

Just some FYI....she got her projects for all of you in on time, same as mine. So, why would she need to be on 6 months time out?

She just is no longer here, no way to contact her, so no need to make her one, if haven't already

Okay. I misunderstood what you were saying. At the risk of being wrong again, is it Butchie's Mabel that we're talking about? I think everyone else is accounted for.

Yes. So if you haven’t made hers you can refrain if you wish. Those that have can decide how to handle it how they wish.

nycfem · 02-23-2019, 10:25 AM

Nanners, please send the one I made for her to Clay because they had very similar themes. I wish to gift it to Clay. Thank you.

FireSignFemme · 02-23-2019, 12:31 PM

nanners I tried to send you a private message but system won't let me it says your mailbox is too full.

nanners · 02-23-2019, 04:17 PM

Yes, my PM box is full. My apologies, I need to pay my membership but am having a hard time coming up with the $100...so please email me at nanners45@msn.com.

FireSignFemme · 02-24-2019, 10:58 AM

I'm finishing mine up today and should have them in the mail tomorrow. Now that most of mine are done, stepping back and taking a look, I see they've turned out more like busy collage work than the examples of vision boards I'm seeing online. But I will meet deadline so there's that.

GeorgiaMa'am · 02-24-2019, 06:04 PM

I finally have 2 completely done! It's taking longer than I originally thought. But the end is in sight! And thank goodness I didn't leave this one to the last minute.

Lyte · 02-24-2019, 09:21 PM

Bummer! I'm reading this now. Mostly I'm sorry she's not able to receive them, I'm sure they'd all be lovely. Gotta say, I'm pretty pleased with how hers turned out.

My style is kinda busy collage anyways, so you're in good company.
