I will admit, some of the cards are pretty lame. But the fact that I've kept it up is more important to me.
Here are my latest creations:
Day 144 - Drawing with your feet is SOOO hard! I totally admire people who have no hands/use of their hands and use their legs and feet for everything.
Day 145 - Hot glue gun flowers
Day 146 - "Skein". I love yarn.
Day 147 - Beauty and the Beast has always been one of my favorites.
Day 148 - Purple is one of those colors that has SO many different shades.
Day 149 - All my utensils were packed up so I had to draw some instead. This was suppose to be a sort of mandala.
Day 150 - Definitely not my best pencil drawing. Oh well.
Day 151 - Working with basic materials like crayons is super liberating.
Day 152 - I actually REALLY wanted to make a Rube Goldberg machine for this project, but it was our move day AND my baby shower day so...I had to just imagine one.
Day 153 - I was feeling super frustrated this day because I couldn't find my book to tell me what the "challenge" was! So I had to scour the web to figure it out. Then by the time I figured it out, I was too tired to make anything cool. So paper dumb bells is what you get!
Day 154 - It's so hard to do this project when your house is a disaster! But I found some cardboard and some crayons, so I was at least able to complete today's card. I actually totally love my game. How it works is there are 4 different paths and you choose one to start on. Some paths are shorter, but have more "risks" like more wild cards or back-2-spots. Other paths are longer but have less risks and more "fun" things like activity cards. So it's up to you which path you think is smartest to take!
Day 155 - Finally found all my craft supplies and can make a cute card!
Day 156 - Busted out my acrylics
Day 157 - "Make something that's strong enough to support your own weight and stand on it". I was SO stumped for this one, so I totally cheated and just stood on a painting I did back in high school. haha.
Day 158 - Work with homonyms today (bear/bare, night/knight, sail, sale). **Wrong Mr. Scalin! These are homophones, not homonyms...but whatever...I know what you mean.
Presenting: my FLOUR FLOWER!
Day 159 - I hate this card.
Day 160 - Jordan said this one is gross. haha. You're not actually suppose to use it. It's just for fun.
Day 161 - I've got babies on my mind, so I had to make a baby card!
Day 162 - This is a fairy trap...haha
Day 163 - "Work with only the items you find in your refrigerator or freezer"
My advice for creating things while in the middle of a life transition - KEEP AT IT! It's nice to take a few minutes for a mental break.
I hope this was good practice for when baby comes. I've been really worried I won't be able to keep it up when the baby gets here, but I'm sure I can fit it in. (Less than 3 weeks until she is here!!)
