WOYWW #92

Here it is....just as I started working on the final challenge for the Compendium of Curiosites over at Studio L3. I thought I better snap this now (7:30 pm Wed. night) before I really got involved in the piece--mostly since I really didn't know where it was going, or if I was even going to get it finished in one night (in involves stitching..the only worse technique would involve an iron..oh, yea, that was Tim's book too!LOL)

I even bought Tim's design ruler for this challenge; I wanted it to be a totally Tim project for the last one...even though I have 3 really great rulers...see the one on the left side? My Fav! From C-thru; hard to find so I have 3 brand new ones ready to go if something should happen to this one! LOL!

You'll have to wait for my next post later today to see the finished piece...I will say; I did get it done in one night...and I did end up using that piece of grunge paper that I colored with the copper dabber paint. And it even sorta came out like I planned..well, that piece; I just have to learn which side is "up" on those texture fades! LOL! So hop over to Julia's Stamping Ground to see everyone else's creative space! Have a great weekend everyone!

  3. I know how you feel about the stitching. Love that caddy, I have one myself, and the Tim ruler and something like your favorite as well. They're both handy to have for different projects. Look forward to your challenge piece,

  5. I bought the Tim ruler a while ago, thinking I'd need it for the challenge eventually, took it out of the pack for the first time when I made my piece - thanks for stopping by! I love your desk and will be back to see what you created.
