Right,
there I was minding my own business, cruising the forums on Etsy (as every self-respecting Etsian would!) and I came across a post.
As you do.
Which led me to follow up the link this lady provided in aforementioned post.
Which brought me there:
http://thursdaysweettreat.blogspot.com/
Which in turn led to the 'snap' decision to actively participate in this challenge.
Now, I have never ever taken part in any art challenge yet here I was with just 5 days of producing something.
Of course I went through the whole range of emotions like:
-I can do that
-not sure if I have time
-I'm pretty sure I don't have time
-I don't have to force myself to do the challenge
-I'm so not having the time right now
-to hell with it, I can do that!!!!
and I did it...
Here's the link to my first piece (I am happy to say it sold 2 days later)
so for todays challenge I created this piece:
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20364750&ref=vt_other_2
it's a proper A4 size and as soon as it was finished I put it in a frame and on the wall and there it will stay for the moment.
I decided to go with the theme 'song' as I still have some vintage music sheets and maybe I can create a series like I have with my strange flowers:

and now I can't wait what challenge Natasha will be giving us tomorrow...
See what happens when you make a snap decision...
