Hi Ladies,
Everyone has an opinion and we love to give them, don't we??

Anyway, my work is having an employee art festival and I'm considering submitting some LO's and maybe altered items. I've posted what I'm considering on my blog, and am looking for some input. I can submit up to 5 items.

I'm a little nervous to submit, since no one at my work knows about my crafty stuff and also paperarts hasn't been represented before. I would have to submit under the "other" category.

If you have a chance, I'd love for you to check it out and comment. I have other stuff posted on my Flickr account and you can link there from my blog. I'm pretty new here, and haven't been able to upload alot to this gallery, YET!

Thanks for your help/opinions!

If it's for a contest I think any of the projects would be great, they are all beautiful. If you want me to pick I will.

Thanks for helping!

There's no judging in the Festival, it's just displaying the art of employees at the college where I work. I have to pick 5 things to submit with my application to "show" at the festival.

I'd love any rating/ranking people want to give to help ME chose!

I would definitely do the Advent Calendar and the two mini albums. I like the "I dwell in possibility" and "Time in the Tub" layouts. Everything is gorgeous and I think this could be a fun thing to do.

I really think these are all adorable. However I really like the advent calendar. I know how these look IRL life too. They are stunning! I received one in a white elephant gift exchange last year. Sadly it was ruined.

Back to the topic at hand LOL......I also like the mini book and Time in the TUB is so cute with all those circles.

Your pages are gorgeous and if I were you I would feel great entering any one of these beautiful layouts!! Go for it....and then let us know how it goes.

ps I would love to see some of your work here too, I'll be checking out your blog!!

Thanks ladies for the encouragement. There are several that show up on everyone's list, so that has been really helpful! I'll probably do the application this weekend, and maybe "whip up" something new and exciting....I want to start posting more stuff here, since I really love this community! You girls are great! Thanks!

Oh my, they are all so wonderful! I love the mini albums, but then I love to smurf through stuff like that at craft shows. I understand completely about people "not knowing" what you do....!! But if I had creations like yours - I wouldn't worry in the least! I think your co-workers will be truly astonished!
