Cards and Paperweight --- Thing A Day #11 (and 9 and 10)

This snow has me falling behind with my postings.  The only thing I did on Day #8 was homework. :(

Thing A Day - February 16, 2009

This is just a first run. My webcam is crap!! Its so hard to get proper lighting and my new lightbox was too small to shoot inside of. But I plan on adding tutorials to my blog and Facebook fan page. More than likely, I will reshoot this.

Thing A Day - February 14, 2009

I'm trying to teach my daughter how to frame things with her camera. So sometimes when we take walks in the neighborhood, I take pictures with my Blackberry. Sometimes I get really great shots.

Thing A Day - February 3, 2009

I did do a Thing A Day.

I built myself a lightbox. but I got so wrapped up in taking product photos, I didn't take a picture of the box. I will add a picture on the 4th.

Thing A Day - February 2, 2009

I stayed home to work out the last of this infection and finish off my paper.

I've been dying to try out this new N hook I bought so I picked something basic to crochet. Now mind you, I have never crocheted a scarf before. I don't do well with long projects but I figured the chenille was thick and the hook was large so it should go quickly. I also kept the rows short. Took about a half hour. Pretty spiffy, even if I say so myself.

Just so you know, I open to swapping with other participants in Thing A Day. Just contact me and we'll see what we can do.

Not available for swapping: My daughter loved it so much she wore it to school today. Don't worry, she's a budding artist. I'll get her to add something in exchange.

Thing A Day - February 1, 2009, originally uploaded by collectiveelements.

So Thing A Day started today. Unfortunately I am in the middle of writing a paper, plus fighting off a sinus infection so I could only manage a little doodle.

I've been drawing this flower since I was a little girl. Sometimes its really detailed and some times its more basic than this picture. I used to say it was my daisy picture but its more like a pansy.
