Another week, another list. Here we go then, in no particular order, On Monday 14th May 2012 I am thankful for . . . .
780. The incredible breadth of music that glorifies God and the technology that allows us to carry it with us (which reminds me I need to find my usb to phone cable so I can put some more on my phone).
781. Bumping into old friends and their immediate understanding and acknowledgement over a difficult situation that came up in conversation.
782. The 3 day weekend, with an extra day at home for hubby and youngest son.
783. Finally getting through on the phone to the dentist and booking an appointment.
784. My dental problem being easily dealt with.
785. For the plants we were able to get at the cheaper garden place to spruce up our back garden (yard).
786. There was enough of a break in the wet weather for us to get those plants into their containers.
787. The opportunity to be in school each week doing Open the Book bible story assemblies.
788. The head teacher of another school who apologised for the mix up in calendars last time.
789. Having such a flexible church building.
790. The soft comfy carpets in the church foyer.
791. The income the church earns from taking outside bookings for the wonderful spaces we have.
792. Industrial sized carpet Shampooing machines and the tool hire place that is so good to us and let us have one for less than half list price for the day when one of those bookings makes a mess.
793. Awesome weekend at the Written by the Spirit Christian writers conference. WOW, such spirit led and filled worship, and teaching that both challenged and informed in order to increase both our anointing and our skill level.
794. Leadership Interactive at church is pushing me to dig deeper and go beyond what I thought I was willing or able to do.
795. My mini sermon for leadership interactive is finished and will hopefully go well tonight.
796. Awesome gift of loads of fabric for my craft room from a friend at church.
797. The Unlocking the Heart of the Artist online course, the awesome amazing people also doing the course and the incredibly tough homework that makes us dig deep into questions about who we are and what we are called to.
798. The realization that visions and dreams I had before I ever really got into art, could actually be connected with the art stuff.
799.

Just a quick art journal page for today's post. There's a piece I want to do based on something I wrote a few years ago. I have always said that that piece of writing felt unfinished, and I think I now know why.
There wasn't more to write but there was more to come. I need to get it down on paper in art. And seriously I have no artistic training, so the idea of representing these beads, bubbles, whatever they are visually freaked me out. So rather than make my first attempt the finished piece, I figured I would just practise in my art journal.
First of all I painted the bubbles using Neoclor II watercolour crayons.
I like the middle one and the one at the bottom left the best. After drying them I got out my masking fluid and masked off the bubbles. To save ruining a brush with the masking fluid I applied it with a cotton bud.
I used more Neocolor IIs for the background and finally peeled off the masking fluid. Sadly the masking fluid did bring some of the colour up off the bubbles.
I definitely prefer them before the masking fluid, so I'll have to find another way of doing that background. Maybe I'll mask the circles, do the background, remove the masking fluid and then fill in the bubbles. Now I need to practise the positioning and size of the bubbles to make them look like beads on a necklace.
Then there's the really scary part for me, trying to represent those picture that were in the piece of writing inside some of the bubbles.

It's been a while since I have shared a craft project from our open the book team. That's because we haven't needed anything new recently. But today we are doing the story of the feeding of the 5000, and we needed 5 loaves and 2 fish that would fit in the average sized child's lunchbox. I decided to make them out of foam board. I grabbed a few pictures off the internet and printed them out at the size I needed. Then I scribbled over the back of each image with pencil, making sure to cover all the areas where there were lines of the right side.
I turned them over, placed them on top of the foam board and using an embossing stylus, went over all the lines to transfer them to the foam board.
I cut roughly around each shape using a craft knife then I went over the outlines with a black marker.
Using the craft knife, I began to cut the shape out, bit by bit, removing the excess foam board as I went.
Finally each shape was cut out and I went over all the internal lines as well.
Finally, I grabbed some acrylic paints and coloured them in, going over the marker lines afterwards where necessary.
