Craft #85: Paperclay art (WIP) + ramblings + Valentine's Day?

I've been working with my paperclay art for almost a month. And I'm still not done, orz

 

 

Filling the spaces with dark brown paperclay was no easy feat. As I have to be very careful in applying them onto those tight spaces.

The image below shows you what I call the "Challenger Zone":

 

 

I stopped Wednesday evening and tackled this zone Thursday morning. Here's what it looks like since yesterday:

 

(seriously, I have to figure out why I keep messing up that right corner. always blurry...)

I'm giving myself at least two days before I start "editing" ^^

And then I'd move on to another project!

I've been busy listing. HAHA. There's so many things I'm interested in: coloring adult pages, watercolor painting, hand lettering, watercolor painting, polymer clay sculpting... And then the other day, I somehow got myself into the art journaling section of youtube. Now I want to try that too! 

Crochet is another one. I remember playing with yarn two or three years ago and it was January too. I bet it has a lot to do with the cold weather.  I also want to try making amigurumis. Yesterday, I stumbled upon a Japanese youtuber who makes miniature food amigurumis! So kawaii! 

Shrinky Dinks? Resin charms? Paper crafts? The polymer clay crafters I'm following in YT are into these as well. Sigh. I want to try everything!

And this morning... it's rubber stamp carving. Ohohoho! I like rubber stamps. I used to buy those cute sets from the boutique in town.  Sooo... sigh.

Aigoo. What am I to do with myself?

I also have to think about KIS and CC and my NaNoWriMo novels. 

I should probably make a gun chart or some sort of timetable...

 

On the other hand... Valentine's Day is coming up. The stores have started putting up hearts and arrows.

Imgur is even holding a Valentine's Day Exchange event.

I thought it would be fun to exchange graphic images or e-cards. But then as I clicked the other link, I found out that I have to buy a gift worth at least $20. It's not an international exchange so I'll be paired up with someone from my country.

Heh, you know how exchanges like this turn to a game of chance. Regardless of the site, there would be people who won't play nice. As I scrolled down the comments section, I read that there are a lot of users who haven't received any gifts from their Secret Santas for two years in a row. Sigh.

 

Do we have any events here? (Should check) What are you planning to do?

I will write a oneshot/s and code a layout, I guess, AFTER I update CC... soon, orz

I have to do something about me getting distracted all the time and wanting to do everything...
