And of course, the text is too small to read ;-( It says: "I cannot tell you how much this heralds spring with great character of each being determined by the proportions. Since I have been combined while in a state of fusion, as in most places, the first color to appear is yellow."

The Lizard Queen

I must admit I did scour the pages of Knitting Magazine, National Geographic and How Its Done magazines to find a page which has suitable image to go with the words on the same page. So not as random as punwit describes but hopefully the end result is o.k. and I had fun doing it! I may even do a couple more now I have cleared my work table of 10 years of grot!

New Theme - Words to the Wise

We always seem to have lots of fun with wordplay, so here's the idea: Cut out a random paragraph from 3 different magazines, books, wherever. Select a word, phrase or sentence from each paragraph and create a scene to illustrate them. Be sure you include the words in the picture also. (This is a slight variation to the random image exercise in our fearless leader's blog awhile back...) http://scrapatorium.typepad.com/scrapatorium/2007/11/exercise-1.html
