Sorry there will be no posts for a couple of weeks. I am still creating but my camera is off on an overseas adventure and will not return for another 10 days. If I manage to locate the cable for my other camera I will start posting. Please stand by.
Cheers

Day 87:
"What can you do with a candle?"
One of the ideas under today's prompt was to draw with a candle and reveal the image using water colour. This is what I decided to do. Unfortunately the only candle I had was a tea light. It was bulky and a bit difficult to draw with. Then once you drew it was hard to see where you had drawn and of course impossible to erase. I decided to draw an elephant in honour of my son who is off to Kenya to work with Free the Children for 10 days.
Two tries. I don't really love either one, but here they are:

Day 86:
"Decorate a cake, pie or cookie."
Well this was done earlier in February. In all the chaos when I wasn't creating, my youngest had a birthday. She asked for a Chameleon Cupcake Cake to take in to share with her class. Not knowing what I was getting myself into I agreed. Then I googled 'cupcake cakes' and found out they were pretty fancy. My solution was to make mini cupcakes, arrange them into a chameleon shape, ice the whole thing and then decorate it.
Looks a bit like an alien. Last year's cake was much better (yes my daughter is a fan of Chameleons). If I ever get my pictures off the camera (cable was lost in the move) I will add that cake here.

Day 85:
"Work with words. Make an image with just words or letters."
Please stand by. I need a bigger canvas for this project and my youngest is home from school sick. My plan is to get one on the weekend.
