Oh how I love Michelle Ward's challenges! I haven't been able to do the last couple because of time and even now I am just snucking in under the finish line!! A great idea to do a Ta Da list for 2011. A chance to look back and be surprised at all your accomplishments.
I have so loved the Strathmore online workshop 1 (with Traci Bautista) that I thought I would do something in that style so picked a background from one of the pages in my A4 size journal which was already painted with acrylics and watercolours and which had one or two light stencils on it. Then I set to work with some oil pastels, some copic markers
some delicious Indian Ink and a Tippex white out pen and here we are. Then for the accomplishments themselves I wrote in a red copic marker all round the images (I think I could keep adding to it actually as I keep remembering things even now!!)
A bit of a closer look
I had great fun again doing this. Thanks so much for the inspiration Michelle!

What a great, lively and colorful page! I love the unstructured joy you bring to this project!
Sheila - super fun page! Love the colors and all the action going on. I love hearing that you are still remembering additional accomplishments. That's the cool thing that happens once you start reflecting on the past year. Love the red lines of Ta-Da's. Bravo! Thanks for sharing with the team!
Oh wow! Your page is gorgeous. I love her style and need to look up the class you refer to. Thanks for sharing. And well done on achieving so much :-)
Hello there, just had to comment on your work. It's great and to include the tips given by Traci is such a good idea. I have been doing the course also and have really enjoyed it.
