Like so many fans of Brenda Dayne, I hopped right on over to download Lime & Violet’s podcast. I listened to the first two episodes today, and I hope you’ll go grab them for yourself. Plus these podcasters, like the Craftborgs, are also KSKS participants.
As I read through Lime & Violet’s blog this evening, I came across Miss Violet’s Art Scouts. Mind you, I was not a joiner as a child. I would have been mortified to be a Girl Scout. Things are different now, though, and I want badges. Art Scout badges. How about you?
Granted, some of the steps for activities I’ve done seem simple. The Knitting and Quilting Houses, for example, have steps that I could just breeze over. But maybe I’d be better served to spend some time on them, rethink the early steps of what I already know.
I’ve decided to explore Art Journaling first. For years I’ve messed around with watercolors and words, and I’ve fantasized about this ideal journal…not ideal in a high-pressure way, but ideal in incorporating the varied aspects of my creative interests. So, here goes!
Have fun at the beach and you do not have to take a class on the moebius cast-on. I’ll teach you when you come in the fall. What do you do with crochet thread? I am almost finished with my Ramona doll.
um..yeah, I kinda got kicked out of girl scouts when I was 12. Something about not complying to the girl scout ‘law’ or whatever. I guess calling the troup leader a Beeyotch isn’t allowed ;o)
I am so very far behind on my podcasts, I miss Brenda!
You’re the coolest, thanks! 🙂
Rosemary, who had heard of the artscouts site but is glad of the reminder to revisit it 🙂
Holy crap, I got kicked out of Girl Scouts too, ALSO at age 12! My leader said I should find an activity better suited to my needs, not a good group worker, distracts others from goals, blah blah whatever. So we didn’t earn a single badge the whole year. So what? (This may explain why I join so few KALs and swaps.)
