31 day August challenge

A new month.........time to renew/change/evaluate...

I have decided not to continue with the weekly goals on this blog and not post every Tuesday to the linky party.  I have done 69 weeks of posting goals....and before that I used to try to finish by Friday for the linky party.  It was a great motivator for me for a lot of years.....but now I want to do something different.  

Note for those who read my last post.....Yesterday I did an update on my last blog post and added a photo of the two fabrics I used for the crazy mini quilt.  I am sure most everyone was wondering how did I come up with that quilt!!.  

I really enjoyed posting on IG every day in August for the challenge by Joanne Sharpe  in her online class to make some kind of creative play artwork every day.  I usually made the decision each day what creative project I would do and many days I did several projects and decided which one to take a photo and post to IG.

Yesterday for the last day of August I worked on three projects that I had started earlier in the month.  Two of them were doodle painting and using pens....one using twinkling H2Os. The other project was using the sheet of faux oil cloth and cut it into different size pieces and sew then on painted papers.  These were ideas from Joanne Sharpe classes over the past few years.  Here is the photo from yesterday.  My IG is carylquilts if you want to see all 31 days of projects.

projects, roses and a finish

 Here is a springy tablerunner with Eden charm squares I finished today...
 I blogged about it before in October....
 I changed the quilting with each square and some I followed the fabric design..
 I took a photo of my roses today..the name of the rose is Paradise Found...
 here is my batik rail fence quilt with center quilting started....
here is the same March FMQ Challenge sample with the paintstix I blogged about this week...
but now I used Smooch taffy on the heart...
and on the flower to the right of the heart I used twinkling H2Os fuzzy peach...
I was checking to see what I liked the best....
Actually I like to work with all three of these items!!
Smiles and hugs....Caryl

butterfly compare


Last week Outside the Box blog had a blog hop....
They featured twinkling H2Os....
the above photo shows what I did with my twinks....
I now keep the lids off in the container...
and spritz with water when ready to paint...
I have had these many years and always put the lids back on...
I like the change...easier to see the colors and..
quicker to get to the fun!!

the top of the photo is with Smooch....
and the bottom is with twinkling H2Os...
there is such a difference between white and black cardstock...
the colors turn out looking totally different...
but all four have lots of sparkle...

here is what I used:
Hero Arts artists butterfly stamp
Versamark Dazzle champagne
gold embossing powder
Smooch pearlized accent ink sassy pink and ocean soul
Twinkling H2Os fuzzy pink and Carribean mist
waterbrush
flat brush

for lots of tips and inspiration...

to see what the Memory Box team did last week...
and what they are still doing!!!!
