4+ materials
4+ photo-edited of others
4+ original images
*I could actually buy one of the leftover Cure t-shirts (they're only $3) and put that on the board instead of just taking a picture.
*OH. I can use one of the lanyards ($1) to make a hook to hang the poster.
(So, $4 plus 35% percent off...ahahaha I love employee discounts.)
Isn't that backwards? Am I the only one who notices stuff like that?
Why is English so weird??
*I was going to knit a mini ribbon thing, but I don't have pink yarn and I left the white at home. I do have some red left over from Xmas - it's got either gold or silver flecks in it. That's still usable, though.
*We had to wear little pink ribbons on a safety pin on our nametags at work for months this summer, so I could stick that somewhere. It's tiny, maybe 1 1/2" tall at the most.
*During the FWAGLL (Fort Worth American Girl Luncheon League) last Saturday, the girls (24 of them, good grief!) made little heart shaped pillows out of felt, stuffing, and yarn. They were really cute, and I don't know about anyone else, but when I think of breast cancer, I can relate it to the image of a heart pretty easily. I mean, that's in the right area of the body, and I'm not really comfortable getting a picture of a naked breast, and who wants to see what it really looks like on the inside? So, a heart. Besides, it's almost Valentine's Day.
*Then there's the 4 photos/images that aren't mine...I might try to get an image of the founder, Susan Komen's sister. Then I can arrange some text near her face so it's like she's speaking to us. Or maybe that would work better with Susan Komen herself...hmm.
*I also want a photo that I can Burn, so maybe a before/after sort of thing, although that's awful common...probably because it works.
*Huh. I just had two good ideas, but the stuff I need for them is at home. Maybe one of my parents won't mind being a packmule...? I could either make tissue paper flowers (simple ones), or I might have some dried flower petals still, or maybe even potpurri. I'm thinking of scented things, and obviously tissue paper isn't scented but that's what perfume is for :).
*Textwise, I don't plan to include much. There's the paragraph of course, but other than that...The name, of course, and maybe a website right under it (b/c websites are shorter, and better for info sharing). There's the slogan I used for the mini-project: "Promise to Fight" which I could use, or I might be able to come up with something different.
To summarize:
1) t-shirt
2) lanyard
3) knitted ribbon
4) mini store ribbon
5) pillow heart
6) Susan Komen/sister pic
7) Burnable photo
8) flower/potpurri/scented thing
9) text - paragraph, title, web, slogan
Okie dokie then. Farewell Monday!
