21 day challenge update


I am completely overwhelmed by the 21 day challenge. I am paralyzed. Nothing seems worthy of showing anyone. I have already abandoned 2 of the 3 habits I was cultivating. (Perhaps 3 at a time was a bit much!) But my DH helped me find some perspective and narrow down exactly what I had hoped to get out of this: 1. I want to connect with other creative people. My friends are just not into art, despite all my subtle pushing and modeling ;-) and 2. I want to find a way to use my art to glorify God. The church is having a Spring Sale next week and I thought I would collage some Bible verses on canvas for the church to sell. So far all my attempts have been unworthy and I am so frustrated! So, I have decided that I will try and post on at least 2 blogs that I look at - I get so much inspiration from the other 21 dayers - and yet I lurk instead of letting them know. I will try to change that. Also, I will continue to brainstorm and research and ask others and try and learn how I can use art/scrapbooking to somehow serve God. So these are my new goals. I think I might be able to stick to these. BTW This is a scrapbook page from a book I did on my youngest daughter called "20 minutes with Taylor." We had a hard time conceiving her and she'll be 2 in June. Where did my baby go!?!
