A journal of my crazy desire to complete one craft or creative project every day for one year.

Projects 136-151: Gnome Invasion!
It's greater than the British invasion... it's just smaller...
Got to play with clay today, something I haven't done in a while, and I certainly upped my game! I created a bunch of 3- dimensional gnomes today- my first real 3D projects to date in this media. I also made a few cards this week... see details below!
136 - Bliss Anniversary Card
137 - Martha's Birthday Card (gorgeous new paper!)
Projects 138-141 were a personal challenge of mine - I wanted to see if I could make four different Easter Cards using the same stamp set, and limiting the number of punches, etc.... just to show new crafters that you don't need a lot of stuff to get going. I think they turned out rather well!
138 - Hoppy Easter Card - Green & Pink
139 - Hoppy Easter Card - Blue & Pink
140 - Hoppy Easter Card - Peek-a-Boo!
141 - Pink Easter Card
And then the Gnomes invaded! I'm making one of these each for my friends for their birthdays this year. I'll make them in batches 'cause its easier (and then you readers have to guess which one is yours! Ha!) They're so cute, that I had to name them all, and give them personalities! (I so need to have kids...)
142 - "Jacques" - He's a quite guy... but the room lights up when he smiles
143 - "Sunshine" - The only gnome to wear a yellow shirt - he never gets lost!
144 - "Whitey" - That's not his real name, but since he's the boss, you call him what he wants to hear!
145 - "Pierre" - Roly Poly and tons of fun!
146 - "Fred" - He makes up for his rather boring name by always having a joke on hand!
147 - "Doris" - She's a bit bossy, but you always want her on your team!
148 - "Edward" - The 'stache with attitude!
149 - "Celeste" - The sweet one of the group - she gets a lot of flowers!
150 - "George" - He's a little square, but he always knows what to do!
151 - "Mary" - She's quiet, but quick with a hug when you need it!
A few more projects are on the go - hopefully will be able to post more later this week.
Don't forget to check out my flickr account for all the pictures!
