Today, Sun entered Pisces and Pisces period has started. :o)
Three years ago (2015), I started a personal challenge which took time in Pisces period, Celebrating 30 days of Pisces. I gave myself 4 challenges to complete them in 30 days. Goals of these challenges were to improve my coloring and card making skills, to learn some new techniques, to finish a "long time waiting to be finished" project and to improve my English with writing here on blog daily. I managed to complete all challenges, I accomplished my goals, made some new friends and had loads of fun!
Satisfied with results of my first challenge and self improvement, I decided to make this challenge annual. :o)
Two years ago (2016), I've challenged myself to make 30 CAS cards in 30 days, as they were (and still are) my favorite card design. I made 30 CAS cards and completed the challenge. Not all cards I made were unique design, there were couple sets and CASEs, but I accomplished my goals and improved coloring and designing skills.
Last year (2017) I've challenged myself to practice hand lettering every day in Pisces period. Goals of the challenge were to improve my hand lettering skills, to encourage myself to hand letter on my projects and to continue practicing after the challenge ends. I've completed the challenge, practiced every day, improved my hand lettering skills, but didn't practice since.
This is a personal challenge and will take time in Pisces period that started today, February 18th at 6:18 PM and ends on March 20th at 5:15 PM. (CET, UTC +1, Dubrovnik, Croatia).
I love rainbow colors, but don't use them so often on my projects.
I'm challenging myself to make 20 (or more) cards featuring rainbow colors in Pisces period.
Due to my busy daily schedule and my every day commuting, it's not possible for me to craft every day, so I'm going to limit myself to make at least 20 cards, which at the moment looks possible to achieve. :o)
Idea is to make 20 (or more) cards featuring rainbow colors in 30 days period. As I want to practice, I'll be CASEing some cards (I'll ask designers permission to CASE their cards), but not more than half of the total. Mass produced cards are counting as one.
Goals of the challenge are to improve my cardmaking skills and to use more rainbow colors on my cards.
I'll be sharing my progress and finished cards here on my blog as I finish them (and time and weather allows me so). At the end of the challenge, I'll write wrap-up post with a complete preview.
Hi Milka, you are a very persistent girl! :) Your challenge proposal are admirable!
