Check me out! I really jumped on my new project last night! The picture above is two sheets of black and white art which will become rubber stamps which will become my new ornaments. Chuck pointed out to me that I am way late in starting this project, and I fully realize it.

I may want to work on my drawings in the future, and find a way to incorporate them into my work more.

There is a great prize, some lampworked beads by the talented Lezlie Belanger of Canterbury Glass. I have these in my possession , and it is fun to be able to play with them for the month before they go out to the challenge winner.
