It's so close to the end of the month, but honestly, I'm not ready to give up yet. I've only had one day when I was too tired to give any creative attention to making a card. Some other days have been hard to fit in the time as I set myself the goal of taking a photo of a finished little work by 5pm each day.
What have I found difficult?
- choosing a postage stamp.
- coming up with 'different' ideas and bringing the ideas to life quickly
- including both stamp and stitch into the design ( occasionally) .
- compromising by using some previously stitching samples.
- no time for revision.
What have I enjoyed?
- knowing I will have 30 Christmas cards made , ready for posting by 1 December.
- sorting through my stash of beautiful Christmas stamps.
- combining media ( although that is also what I found difficult!) .
- deciding who will be the recipient of each card.
- the focus of creating something every day.
- the spontaneous nature of the project.
-using up scraps of fabric, abandoned samples of work and multiple used stamps.
