Finished Projects

The boys are up!  Christmas preparations will soon be underway!

Here is Project 2, the triptych.  The title missing from this one is The Anxiety Altarpiece.  The mixed patterns are supposed to be anxiety inducing.  :D


These pictures were taken at 7:30 yesterday morning- a half hour before it was due.  It was appropriate, I think, that my last night in college was an all-nighter.


The quote is: "It doesn't get better.  YOU get better."  I'll get some better pictures when I finish my copies, but the last page has the colophon and a tiny car ornament.  And check out my spectacular mess!


It is meant to stand up so that when I wake up in the middle of the night freaked out and convinced that my life is a mess and I suck at everything, I can open this up and remind myself that life will always be messy- it's my response to it that matters.



Here is the 3rd project- the accordion fold.  I barely finished these things in time.  My copy will have a title, but now imagine this says:

AIBOHPHOBIA (fear of palindromes)


Randomly selected scrapbook paper to connect the cover to the real pages.


I thought "WOW" should not be as boring as the rest of them, so I used this patterned mylar sheet on top of yellow cardstock.  The light is pretty orange, but the letters are cut from purple cardstock.


Not actually a palindrome, but a visual palindrome.


Vertical palindrome


One of my favorite designs out of the series


Was this intentional, namers of Tylenol?


It just felt right to have this sentiment last.


More random scrapbook pages.  I used the same colophon for both projects.  (Timesaver!)


The End
