A Year of Questions
Are you participating in the "52Q"? It's on Ember's blog. Click Here for link to it. On the right of her blog you can click a link to 52Q. What is 52Q? Glad you asked!
52Q is an art challenge. Each week (52 times a year), she gives you a question or something to think about. Your challenge is to answer that question in any artsy way you'd like. She is doing a year of tags this year. Each tag is a different week's question. Last year she used a deck of 52 playing cards.
I'm doing mine with invitation size envelopes (4 3/8" x 5 3/4") for the question and then covering a flash card (purchased a pack from the Dollar Store) with the answer. I put a little ribbon at the top of the tag and slip that inside the envelope for that week's question.
The Crop-dial is so wonderful! I used that to punch 3 holes down the side of the envelopes and put binding rings through them so it looks like a mini book. I also used it to cut the top of the tag to place the ribbon through. Even cutting through all these layers, the crop-a-dile cuts it like butter! Amazing!
I encourage you to participate and please post a comment with a link to your blog or pictures of your own creation. Enjoy!
