Hi there! I'm going to keep this post fairly short today as I've been battling a bad headache most of the day and I know that spending a lot of time in front of the computer screen isn't going to help in my fight. So I'll just quickly re-cap how I did with last week's goals - not especially well. In fact, I only met two of the six I set for myself. However, the two I did do were the most important - I got the markers I wanted and I made my banner! Yay! The banner was really the toughest part because I was really afraid I wouldn't be able to actually make what I had in mind (or if I was, it would look really crappy). Despite these fears, I'm happy with how it looks - it's not quite perfect, but it has the handmade look I wanted.
Now I just have to scan it and put the new blog design together. I also have to go the photoshoot with The Leopard for my avatar/profile pic; I decided to wait until I got my long overdue haircut, which happened on Saturday. So this week's creative goals will be:
- Scan banner
- Put blog design together
- Have photo taken for avatar/profile pic
- Make avatar
- Make cards for upcoming swap (one wedding and three birthdays)
I also have some ideas for new mini-projects (I've been coming up with a lot of these lately) so I'm going to try to work on at least one of those. And on Thursday, I'm going to a friend's place to help her silk-screen some cool t-shirts for The Leopard as part of his new merchandise line. Very excited about that one because the design is so,so cool! Maybe I'll be able to post some sneak peek photos later this week.
Okay, that's enough computer for now. Here's a pretty photo courtesy of The Leopard. It's of a beautiful peony from mother-in-law's garden - a little gift because The Leopard and I celebrated our one-year anniversary yesterday! We've been hitched for one fabulous year - I can hardly believe it, but I'm really, really happy about it! :)
