Top Ten Things About August
1. It was like Christmas! I won 2 blog giveaways and received 10 charms from a swap, AND just read I came in second in a contest to design a menu for a local coffee shop and won a $20 gift certificate!
2. I got invited to enter a national gift wrapping contest by a PR person for 3M who saw a wrapping paper sculpture project I did last year. (I'm sure hundreds of folks were invited)
3. Kneaders opened a restaurant near us! Oh my heck, the chocolate dome dessert is to die for!
4. I made a see-through mosaic that hangs in a window and I love it! I love mosaics!
5. I got invited to join three dark themed Etsy shop owner groups.
6. I entered a challenge piece in a Smeared and Smudged challenge. (Pictured above) It's a Warholesque Edgar Alan Poe.
7. I was asked to be on a design team called Poison Peas Please.
8. Several of my Cool2Craft web duties were eliminated when my fearless leader streamlined that site, but she wants to pay me the same, so now I'm being paid for my craft projects, which is what she'd planned to do as soon as it was possible! Yea! Tiffany rocks!
9. I found colored metallic pastes that dry completely! They work like Rub-N-Buff, which only comes in gold and patina, but is permanent when it dries. Eee! I ordered them yesterday!
10. My kidlets and I had a pirate party! Any chance to wear a pirate hat and make cardboard treasure chests is gold! Arrrrgh!
Becky here from AMACO, maker of Rub 'n Buff. Just wanted to let you know that RNB comes in 16 colors! You can see all 16 colors on our website here http://bit.ly/ThzWgu.
ReplyDeleteAlso, if you have trouble finding the colors locally, they are all available on AMAZON.com.
Hope this helps! bfinch@amaco.com
Oh my heck! Thank you Becky! I had no idea! I love Rub N Buff and have only ever seen the two colors in any craft store!
