One (Wo)man's Trash...


I can't believe my daughter threw this wonderfully textured paper into the trash! It was her under paper for some inking and coloring she did on some cardstock suns for decorations at work. It is letter sized and much richer looking in person than this scan shows. I quickly snatched it out of the garbage can. I'm not sure what I will make of it, but I love the colors.

I am also preparing for camp. I head off to Northwest Christian Camp for the Deaf as Craft Director on the 19th. Before I leave, I need to complete craft ideas, write directions for my assistants, make samples and prepare the 3' x 8' board for a pictorial mosaic we will make as a "thank you" gift to the camp facility.



In addition, my daughter and I "have to" defend our title at county grilling champs at the county fair on Saturday the 12th. :-) I still can't believe we won last year! We dubbed our team the Sauce-y Chicks. Michelle designed the barbecue-sauce-splot logo and we collaborated on the Apple-Chipotle recipe. This year we're working on an Asian flavored sauce. (and I hope I don't end the competition by severly spraining my ankle like last year!)
