FANTASY CREATURES........OMG. What awesome ones I received yesterday.....(back note...I was out of state for a couple months, so I asked wrangler to hold mine that long for me.

I LOVED LOVED LOVED everyone of them, and you all outdid yourselves. I help each, smiled., read descriptions over & over.......such pure joy & beauty in these. I will cherish them a very long time.

This is one of the many reasons I LOVE this group so much!!

Thanks to all who participated.

No pressure here, just a gentle reminder that the "in Nanner's hands" date is Saturday, March 2nd, with a grace period of one week ending Saturday, March 9th.

How is everyone doing?

I'd like to mention that 3 people have gotten their projects to me, and you 3 absolutely nailed it....I am so impressed with the work that is coming in!!

NYCfem, I believe that this is the best work I have ever seen from you!
Clay, very nice work, I like the back sides too, they are very special.
Butchie's Mabel, you did a wonderful job on your first project with us, and i do hope you'll continue to participate!

I'm kind of in the same place CCB is in. I have a lot of pictures but no real plans for most of them. I have the day off Monday and I'm going to try to focus on it then.

lol@Lyte! Not really. This was such a fun, cool, and relatively easy project, we did ours in 2 sittings last weekend.

I am sure others' will be great pieces also!!

Pssstt...Lyte....want I do yours.....a buck 3 for each one...lol shhhhh...mums the word!

candy_coated_bitch · 02-17-2019, 09:10 PM

Ok, I'm officially getting into trouble with this. Those of you who completed the project easily, do you have any advice???

CCB...we got a huge stack of magazines, cut words, letters, etc & pics we liked that depicted others' visions, then made sorts of "collages"......Butchie's Mabel did a really great job on hers...she nailed them. We spent about 10 hours over 2 days, perusing pics, cutting, etc...then put them all together.

Good luck, CCB. YOU can do this!!!

Thanks, clay. That's basically what I'm doing but the words and images just aren't gelling or making it to the boards yet. I will keep at it.

FireSignFemme · 02-18-2019, 01:56 AM

For me it's been difficultcoming up with pictures. The words were easy, I have all kinds of bits of chopped up word pieces but pictures – what a stymie. Anyhow I think I've finally have enough of both to pull something together here. I'm separating the cut outs into piles now, one for each person, and starting assembly tomorrow.

It sounds like you're good now but if anything pops up that you need, go to Google and put whatever you're looking for in the seatch line followed by images and you'll have all kinds of pictures to print out and use.

Lyte · 02-18-2019, 06:24 PM

Mums is right! I took last Friday off to work on em … and then Saturday too... and then Sunday too... I'm still not done! lol

Lyte · 02-18-2019, 06:30 PM

I started to get overwhelmed with TOO MANY OPTIONS for representations of each person's vision … narrow... narrow... narrow... down the photo options. And def start marrying pics to persons and/or to whatever they're being attached.

That's exactly where I am in this project. I didn't get as far as I wanted today, but I do have separate piles now, and I think I have enough pieces.
