Day 3 - New day, new quilling adventure

So today I said to myself that I need stuffy stuff like :

1.  a cutter ( yes I know it's weird that I didn't had one)
2.  a  light box. 

Looked at the prices of a light box, had a small hearth attach, and decided to make one from scratch so I needed:


Fast forward made my own light box:

Good to do :
  •  Get cute decoration lights with batteries to use them in the house when you are not using the light box  ( win-win )
  • I use the container for storing some of my quilling stuff when not used as the light box. I keep repeating my self today.



3. a pattern-notebook-template-thing - this is a math small notebook in which I doodle what I want to be my next project. I was inspired today so I have my next 5 projects doodled ( can't wait to do them!)


I bored you enough so let's start talking about today's try of a project :

Steps:
 - pick a project from notebook - checked (see on the left)

- start picking colors - I made some side notes on this project with what colors I wanted to used, I ended up using mostly other color so I will not do that anymore.
- after making 80% of the little pieces I use like:  teardrops, coils,.. time to kill my design with pins and the newly made pieses
- waited especially for the vase to dry  and then used my new made light box to put the pieces on the base paper

WARNING: Be very careful with pisses like my vase :( one teardrop uncoil and it was a mess

I try fixing and ended up with this:


I know it's not perfect but I like it and that's important. It goes on my panel with stuffy stuff made by me.

Hope tomorrow will be a better day with no unwanted uncoiling.


* My relationship with glue is still complicated I should by him chocolates.

Day1 - Drawing Challenge

Of course I am busy and of course I will start other stuff that maybe I should not, so I decided to start a old challenge that I did last year. Some of the drawings I will compare them with the old ones to se if I god better on drawing or worst. So... the challenge is here:  http://sketchbooknation.com/sketchbook-challenge/   (this is not mine - Free publicity :) ) It is fun because if you don't know hot to do the challenge you have a video that shows you step by step, or just images. Alexandra stop blabing!. .. Day one challenge was a bee: On the left you have the original and the first try last year and on the right the new and improve version  * the first challenge was draw on a smaller draw-book then this ears challenge I will not criticize me, that's your job!
