I Have A Project!

Kerry and I exchanged our beads for the month of June which is a zoo theme. She has been really busy with moving to a new house and getting ready for a show. Things are crazy so she decided to come up with a simple idea (in her words:-) but I love it and think it is very clever!

My mission is to design a Parallel Crossings Mascot! She made some beads, wrapped them up in cute little packages and labeled what each body part the beads are supposed to be. Then I get to design the head and a tail. Hmmmm.... wonder what I will create! We will just have to wait and find out! Did I mention that she also did a cute penciled drawing on my card to help give me a better visualization. That was a big help too!

So... I need to ponder over the following week to see where the creation will lead. I'm thinking silly cute but since I never sketch out designs and do it in my head... I won't know until I sit down at the torch.

Here is the photo of the beads all wrapped up! Can you imagine how much fun I had opening up each package!?

Here is the front of the card with Kerry's pencil sketch. It kind of reminds me of the elephant in Horton Hears a Who... Hmmmm.... maybe I will follow along that path. I loved that movie!

Here is the reveal of each body part. So what do you think? You will just have to come back and see won't cha!
