A is for Astounded

 


I'm astounded, I'm on my third round of the A-Z blogging challenge. Our founder Arlee Bird has
enlisted a team and there are many tips. The focus this year is fun!  I think I am going to attempt, an art journal. I am a bit challenged today, with everyone home, but this is a beginning and we all improve as we go, right?!   

We all have desires to achieve, dreams to go for... What are your aspirations?  There is still time to join.  My first year, I discovered this challenge on letter G. I found a quick way to catch up.  I went to the garden section and did a combo post. I could of done the whole alphabet there, but didn't want to play that way.   My ambition...my latest one is to get the cover of one of the magazines, I submit art to.  I know pretty ambitious, but why not.  Now I have to get my ambition aligned with action.  What is your ambition?  Care to share... C'mon I did ;D

 So here's to an astounding challenge!  Maybe I should have picked amazing?!  ;D

That is a great ambition and goal. I know you will accomplish getting that cover. You are far too talented not to shine on there. :)

We are off to a super challenge this year.
