So my apologies if my posts are slightly less frequent. It's been ugly around here.
On the good side, I've been laid-out enough to get to a lot of menial tasks I NEVER want to do. Like cleaning the lids on my various salt shakers, organizing and labeling my spices, throwing out long expired food... yeah, I'm a wild party. My cupboards look fantastic though :-)
Back in April I made this for my gorgeous friend Brittany. My plan was to have it complete except for her race stats, add them as soon as they were posted, varnish and have it to her early in the week following her race. Nice thought, no?
Instead I broke my foot on Monday, contracted creeping death on Tuesday and kicked off this happy time... back in April. But, it is finally done and in her possession.
And it has great texture...
...kind of like Brittany's hair. She's absolutely beautiful and often wears the cutest cap sleeved tops. I tried to capture her fashion sense and look in the collage:

Making something for someone I admire so much was a real pleasure.

Love that texture and the idea behind your gift! Nice job!
Your collage is just wonderful - one of your best IMHO.
I love all the mediums you use Nicole! Very inspiring to get a little inky.
Ugg..... I hope you get to feeling better for more than 2 days at a time real soon. Sick sucks.
Oh that's just wonderful! I know I would cherish it forever if it were me! I certainly hope that you get on the real mend quickly and get over this sickness.

Hey Nicole, I recently used a stencil for the first time and had some issues with it lying flat. I described it in my latest post. Any advice? Thanks!
