My Postcard is in Cyber Fyber!

As I shared in my previous post, 2008 was a busy, busy year for me. In January and February, I committed to 2 artsy things. One, I totally "zeroed out" on and the other I was, thankfully, gently nudged into completing. In January, I signed up for Sharon B's Take It Further Challenge. and intended to create a piece of art monthly along an assigned theme and/or color pattern. I even "borrowed" Take It Further as my peronal 2008 year theme. My art intention never materialized into art. However, while I did "zero out" on the art part, I did Take It Further in the non-art parts of my life!

The 2nd artsy thing I committed to was to participate in a fiber postcard swap with Susan Lenz to be part of CYBER FYBER, "an exhibition of international fiber art scheduled for January 8th through 20th, 2009." I selected her postcard #82 to trade, which Susan mailed to me and I posted here on my blog. Then life took over...

Then...right before Christmas, I received an email from Susan asking if my postcard to her had gotten lost in the mail as she hadn't gotten it yet. (How embarrassing!) I emailed apologies and the short version of my 2008 life story to her. My "shabby chic/vintage look" postcard made Susan's deadline and is posted in her online Cyber Fyber Exhibition #82. And it will be in the SC Cyber Fyber Exhibit! Yay!!!

Please take a look at all the wonderful Cyber Fyber Online Postcards and ATCs. Susan invites you to "leave comments because there will be a PEOPLE'S CHOICE award made on January 17, 2009. The postcard with the combined 'most comments' and votes from the exhibition at Gallery 80808/Vista Studio will be the winner."

Hmmm... Does postcard #82 have a chance?
And I made a similar one to keep for me.

Read more about Susan Lenz in this magazine article. I truly am honored to be part of Susan's Cyber Fyber Exhibition. All I needed was a gentle nudge!
