Thank you for visiting my blog, so came over to see what you are up to. WOW!!!! I can not believe how much you have completed. You really went all out challenging yourself.

Tonight I am playing with paint, kool aid and recycled card board. Card board is for a challenge I want to enter. I plan to post a tutorial on my web site for the different methods used to alter cardboard. I decided to try dyeing the colors with paint pigments, acrylic paint watered down and kool aid. We shall see what tomorrow brings.

Not sure if you visited our challenge blog.
