Make It Mondays - May 12, 2008
Monday, 12 May 2008
This week's Make It Mondays challenge is to make a piece of artwork using eyes. Well, not real eyes, of course! Maybe you'll photograph your eyes, or those of your child, and incorporate them into a piece. Maybe you have a favorite quote about eyes you'd like to use as a jumping off point. It's up to you how to interpret this theme!

Make whatever you like---a journal or gluebook page, an ATC, a drawing or painting, whatever. When you're finished, post a link in the comments for this post, so everyone can visit the blog or photostream where you've posted it. You can also join the Make It Mondays Flickr group and add your photo to the pool there.

Good luck!

Your Time Is (NOT) Up!

After reading several "I'm sorry it took so long" comments on the various Make It Monday challenges, here's what I have to say:

It's NEVER too late to create something. If it takes you more than a few days to tackle one of the challenge themes, don't apologize. Pat yourself on the back for accepting the challenge!

I love doing work inspired by colors, so for a little while, the first prompt of every month will be color-based.

This week's prompt is to make something inspired by the color red. Good luck---and don't forget to come back and post a link here when you're finished!

This week's Make It Mondays challenge is to make a piece of artwork using a quotation---or make one based on your favorite quotation. It's up to you how to interpret this theme!

Make whatever you like---a journal or gluebook page, an ATC, a drawing or painting, whatever. When you're finished, post a link in the comments for this post, so everyone can visit the blog or photostream where you've posted it.
