Deck of Art-4 of Diamonds -What's Your Passion? - Due 11/25

Post by gwendols »

Ok - with the New Moon movie opening up this week I thought this might be a good topic. Create your ATC to show us whatever your passion is. Twilight, crafts, sports, cooking, etc.

Have fun!!! Can't wait to see what is created. :creating:

This was actually an easy one for me-making something with my hands. All my life I have loved to create.
The background is a spin art piece that I thought looked like hands and I was saving it for something special. I'm glad the prominent one is a left hand as I am left-handed. The quote is from Proverbs 31 v.13.

That photo was taken in 1996. I was opening my birthday presents, and my Mother had bought me some scrapbooking supplies and a boxed kit. Little did I know at the time.........................

I didn't have to think very long on this topic - it could have been either this or horses, and I've already done a card on the horse riding hobby... (For those who are wondering: I've set myself a theme for this DoA project - to make it into a mini scrapbook of my childhood memories...)

Journal reads: "There were two passions that fuelled my childhood and teenage years: ballet and horses. I became really accomplished in both of them, but the one that has stuck with me for the rest of my life is the passion for dancing in all its varieties. As a child, encouraged by both my mother and granma, I sampled all the disciplines available at our ballet school: classic, modern, tap, folk, jazz and show dance; and at later stages I did belly dance, rock’n roll, ballroom and Latin dancing, and most recently Scottish country dancing, Highland, and experimental worship dance at church.
Photo: 1979, dancing the Emperor’s Waltz for the 20-Year Anniversary Show of our ballet school"
