TJC: Chibis.

Ugh, I missed a couple of minutes saving this entry to hit Tuesday!

Anyway, last Thursday, July 28, 2011, I had another chibi workshop this time with Ms Thina Villanueva of Clay Thinz. Click on the link if you want to see her cutey stuff...  Will definitely blog about the workshop on another post soon. :-)

Right after the workshop, I got so inspired to work on my clays and make really small chibis, keeping in mind everything I have been taught and learned from the workshop.

It came just in time because I need to come up with cute chibis for our 1st Clay Friends Society Philippines (CFSPh) challenge -- our 1st ever swap: CHIBI, "an adjective that means small and/or miniature in a good or cute way. Normally used to describe (young) people or animals, and is endearing".

I thought chibi would really be perfect for our 1st challenge since most of the artists in the group loves making them. Ü

So for this week, here's a photo of what's been keeping me busy... the little girls for the swap!
Little Flower Girls

They're not yet done... I haven't decided whether I am making them as cellphone, key or bag charm but I will definitely post a photo of the finished project together with the chibis of the other artists.

I bought this Judikins Diamond Glaze a couple of months back but it has been sitting in my cabinet waiting to be picked up since then. Thank God for this challenge, I was able to pick it up and tried it for the first time to create a resin effect on the CFSPh logo that I am attaching with the chibis. So far I am happy with how it turned out!

Also, since Ms Thina generously taught me how to make her favorite Tinkerbell chibi, I decided to create one in pink and added a little touch of me on the version of the wings... I made this to give as a gift to our office secretary :-)

I know... I hate her eyes too! lol. 

Oh and other than the chibi practice from Ms Thina, I also applied the things I learned from my friend Melody Manalaysay of Crafting Time on basic wiring. I wish she'd let me take wiring classes from her one day. haha!

Japanese dolls
A couple of nights ago, I joined a mini guessing game hosted by one of my CF friends, Jo of Kindergarten Kail where I won this lovely Japanese dolls file! Can you see just how lovely the Japanese dolls are? It made me all giddy printing them out so I can do another photo transfer project. I can't wait to see how the project will turn out. I hope it won't end up unfinished just like my dragon :-( 

Wish me luck! 
See you again next week...
