Shrink - Days 4 & 6

Heres buddy on day 4:

Here he is on day 6. Unfortunately he's starting to grow on the inside where I cored him out, so I don't think I'll be doing too much more with him. Say goodbye to Buddy!

Shrink (Shrunken apple head)

OK, so you're going to have to use your imagination a little on this one because it's so early in the process, but my contribution to Inspire Me Thursday "Shrink" challenge is a shrunken apple head.

If it works out, then I can turn it into a doll.

This might take a week to really "shrink" but I'll take pictures each day and you can follow the progress if you're interested. I welcome any name suggestions...Bob?...Georgia?

"I Can't Sit", 4x4 in blue

This is a small piece (4x4) but I love it. I was trying a technique of making "fabric paper" and found this in it.

Polka Dot

Here is my Polka Dot entry. This is actually a 2-piece object and I just need to join the front and back with hinges. When it's closed, you can see the little girl through the window. Too bad it doesn't scan well!
