Projects 276-304: More Randomness

Well, we're into the last week of this crazy project, and I still have an additional 60 projects to complete... in 4 days. So not going to happen - I refuse to substitute quantity for quality!

So, I'm going to keep going and see how long it takes me to finish these projects (hopefully only an additional week or so!) and then on to a new and exciting challenge! More on that later...

For now, here's the bunch I've completed in the last two weeks. There's some real gems here made with new stamp sets, some Christmas gifts and cards, random cards and more Gnomes and Gnome tags! It's kind of been a make-what-you-need quickly kind of month!

Projects 261-275: Christmas in July!

Okay, first off, if you are family STOP READING NOW! Aunts, Mom and Grandma that means you!

Ahem. And now for the rest of you - Christmas in July!

I've started seriously working on gifts for my family. The lovely ladies are getting card sets plus their own personalized card cases... aren't I sweet?

The cases are actually made out of DVD cases (way too much fun) which also hold 10 markers perfectly, so I've started using them to hold markers as well - try to keep your stamping markers lying flat - this way the ink doesn't dry up on one side.

I also threw a quick birthday card in the mix as I have a friend with a special day coming up soon!

Still have to make those gnome tags and start a few other gifts...

261 - Tidings of Comfort and Joy Card
262 - Mini Thank You Card
263 - Christmas Flower Ball (So cool! See picture above - time consuming but not that hard)
264 - Birthday Flag Card
265 - With Love Harlequin Card
266 - Thinking of You Mini Card
267 - Little Bliss Card
268 - K's Card Case
269 - C's Card Case
270 - L's Card Case
271 - B's Card Case
272 - J's Card Case
273 - Blank Card Case
274 - Brights Marker Case
275 - Plum & Pink Birthday Card

90 more projects to go...

Projects 228-260: Final Month!

Final month of my project...

My boyfriend just told me that I've completed my goal - if I decided to take the weekends off! So good that he can do the math in his head like that. The only math I can do is 260 is not yet 365!

So, I'm going to try and complete 105 more projects in the next 24 days. Yikes! Keep your fingers crossed for me...

This past couple of weeks has seen a gnome resurgence! I still have to make the gnome tags for the new batch, and I have a bunch of Christmas stuff to get cracking on, so hopefully we can make it!
